Punishingly Intricate

Not that I think the devices themselves are evil or the people who use them! Obviously!

Someone kick my ass, please. I have so much do get done in the next 24 hours.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

(gently kicks Jen in the ass, so as to impart forward momentum)

Thank you Anne; one load in, bringing the rest out now, then hauling boxes out to sort through office crap and throw away what I can...

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

We've been rained in on a Sunday. So I took the bus to TJ's and got Le Grande Indulgence, aka Brie en Croute. I only dare serve it a few times a year as I fear I'm applying plaque directly to the artery walls of my loved ones. But it's so good.

I need some fancy hot chocolate now.

The status is NOT quo.

One of the screensavers on the original old Kindle, which I have, is about the definition of “kindle”: [link]

I don’t think they ever intended the book-burning association, and it honestly never occurred to me until this conversation. (Not to say that I don’t see what you’re saying now, but I truly never once thought of that.)

Trust my rage

One of the downsides of being pregnant - near constant heartburn. I don't think I've had meal other than cereal in the last two weeks that didn't make me feel ill.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Stephanie, that bites.

Yeah, if hair-pulling isn't against the rules, it seems like a strategic disadvantage to have it.

In rugby, that would be a high tackle and would be a penalty. It should be, too, in football, if they are serious about preventing head injuries.
