Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I keep thinking 40 degrees is cold, and then I bring my coat and I'm pleasantly surprised by how nice it is, so I end up leaving my coat in the car. OK, it helps that it's been really sunny here these last few days.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
40 is about my cutoff for Really Big Coat weather, mainly because my office is on a wind-tunnel street right by the Hudson.

I have discovered the pleasures of the Bright Red Long Coat during the gloomy days of winter. I'm resisting wearing my BRLC every day, because it won't be Bright Red for long if I drag it out through everything.

40 is when I start wearing long sleeves. Most people don't have the advantage of chemically induced hot flashes, though.
Dear recipe people:
I had enough batter for two 2"x12" rolls, not one. I bet it will make fewer cookies than you say, though.
Physics is different in recipeland.

I went out in a t-shirt and my new favorite sweatshirt--my sister got me a really good one from our alma mater, with a kangaroo pocket and hood & everything. It's perfect for huddling in when I have a cold, but doesn't pick up dog hair the way fleece does.
I think it's probably 55 out, and sunny. Nice day.
I spent too much at the grocery store, including buying a big box of Cheerios, and organic applesauce, and lots of oranges and apples, but at least I didn't buy any juice boxes or Spaghetti-Os...
And now I can crash back into bed for the afternoon, or catch up on my Tivo.

ARGH. Plumber is here, can't figure out what's wrong with the water heater, says it's a fancy one that costs like, $2500. Seriously?!? What is so fancy about it, I don't know (but am going to ask), since the most priciest one at, say, Home Depot, is like, $1500.

Dear sweet blessed mother . . . I've avoided the damned Grandma Got Run Over song all year, and what do I hear when I call a customer and the Verizon voice chirps "Please enjoy this tune while we dial the customer"? That. Damned. Song.
edit: What the hell is wrong with listening to the phone ringing!!

Send help, I have fallen into the THIS IS NOT VICTORIAN snark Tumblr and can't get out.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Do you think people (mis)use "Victorian" as a synonym for "fancy, especially fancy with lace and/or ruffles and sort of old-fashioned looking and maybe poofy"? I'm starting to think that's the reasoning behind the misuse.
Although that *really* doesn't explain the flannel.
