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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
IIRC, heartburn during pregnancy correlates with babies with lots of hair. For whatever that's worth.

Because books.
That's interesting! I had no heartburn, and all three kids were born with very little white-blond fuzz.

I'll have to ask my mother, because I was born with an inch of dark hair all over my little noggin -- looked like I had stuck my finger in a socket.
