Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, because that's how the Saints win games.

My god, is the defense finally stepping up?

Good call on the blitz.

One of the Saints beat writers said on Twitter that they'd blitzed everyone on that last play, including the Saints waterboy.

I just learnt what a tontine is.

Unsurprisingly, The Tontine by Thomas Costain is about a tontine. It was one of the books that everyone in the had in the '50s, along with The Keys of the Kingdom by A. J. Cronin, The Robe by Lloyd Douglas Forever Amber by Kathleen Winsor and The Foxes of Harrow by Frank Yerby. I eventually read all of my parents' books during periods of desperation when I ran out of something to read.

I just put some pumpkin bread in the oven. I then noticed that the addition of 1 1/2 cups of water was in the directions but not the list of ingredients. This should be interesting.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm kind of psyched for Alcatraz. I hope it doesn't suck.

Did you not add the water, Ginger?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

goodwill stores and estate sales are good places to find crock pots.

That was a helluva pick.

Brees isn't getting away with some of the stuff he's been able to get away with so far.

I am kind of pretending not to watch. At least, not staring at the screen directly.

I did not add the water. Trying to dump the batter back in the bowl and add water after it had been cooking for about 10 minutes seemed like it might also lead to failure. It was a fairly wet batter anyway.
