Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, the pelvis fracture seems so terrible -- my grandmother had that this year. OW.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, man, Dana. Poor woman.

Speaking of the not bling, I keep looking at this necklace and thinking it's just too shiny. Even for silver. But I love the design.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Does anyone else hear the "Law and Order" bah- bamp noice after this e-book description:

No woman could resist the pleasures he offered....

They are the Merricks, two brothers and a sister, restless, daring, proud. English by birth, they came to Scotland with their father to occupy McClairen lands. And there each would find a love as wild and glorious as the Highland isle they claimed as their own.

Fia, the only daughter, is the ravishing one. Raine, the second son, is the reckless one. Ashton is the eldest son. This is his story. . . .

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Oh Dana, I am so sorry.

In funny and weird news: I had just stepped out of the shower this evening and I heard someone knock on the door. I peered out of the bathroom and thought it best to ignore it.

Then the person on the other side of the door tried the door handle. MEEP. I rushed to the bedroom to get dressed in the dark when my car keys came shooting through the mail slot. My friend C was dropping off keys earlier than anticipated. DOH.

[link] Creepy alogrithim that figured out who I was thinking about in less than 20 questions. Try it!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Man, it correctly guessed Boutros Boutros-Ghali in 21 questions.

Gotta try again.

t edit And Nikola Tesla in 20 questions. Creepy.

And Peyton Manning in 21 questions (I don't know enough about him so there were lots of "I don't know").

But Nikola Tesla is impressive!

It was amazing for 3 questions, and then I thought of Polly Milton from Old Fashioned Girl, and it came up with Gale from Hunger Games, and then with 10 more questions, Holden Caulfield.

It took 27 questions for Joss Whedon (including "Is your character associated with Joss Whedon?"), but part of that could be because I answered Yes to "Is he a writer?" -- I mean, he is, but that's not all he is.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It never got Henry Adams, but it did get James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux in 35 questions.
