You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I also have not figured out how not to get totally wet from my neck to crotch while washing dishes.

I don't get *totally* wet, but I generally get my shirt pretty wet. I had to stop putting on my nightshirt before I washed the dishes, because I would just have to change into a new DRY nightshirt when I was done.

Here's a sexy concept I'm just going to toss out: apron. Eh?

Art Crawl!!!

Ha! I was going to make the same suggestion.

A waterproof apron?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I get my sleeves wet, even if I roll them up.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Eh, water on my shirt doesn't fuss me too terribly.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I get my sleeves wet, even if I roll them up.

I think I would actually need some sort of waterproof gown-- because my sleeves get wet AND I get soaked. Maybe a surgical gown?

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

I vote splashguards for the sink. Not great for short people, but sacrifices have to be made somewhere.

My devices are not working for me today. The headset *and* the built in speakers are no longer working on my soft phone, and something's up that means I can't get IO9 to load properly unless I start up an incognito window. Rest of the gawker network loads fine.

I have the bad aura this morning. They can feel my pain.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

It is a sad day for my city-- Eastman Kodak is filing for bankruptcy.

Damn.

Having cats who eat wet food is my motivation to do the dishes daily. It is nice when there are only a few things. Cleaning the bathroom and vacuuming are my onerous tasks. I wish I could work out an exchange with some of you who hate putting away laundry.

I miss the Instamatic, so hard.

Also, fuck the Instagram.

Eek. Ice storm here. I woke up in the night and could hear it hitting my windows loudly, and it's still coming down. Do not want the power to go out!
