Distracted weird thoughts:

Old Navy sizing is ridiculous. New jeans are a 4. OK, I have no ass, but 4? And pj pants are XS. What do real XS people do? eta: I do have to keep switching my rings to the flipoff finger when doing anything handwavy. So there is some new shrinkage, even in hands. But FOUR? ON, you make me laugh.

Got back to 56s average on swim. I sucked rocks the first 4 miles back after a mere 4 days off. Was pulling minute laps. Uhg.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yes.

Dude. Love this. Thanks!

They're ignoring my emails telling me to take it down, and it's looking like I'm not going to get paid by the second magazine because of this. So I contacted their hosting company.

Well that's just bullshit. Go go you with the DMCA!

Cass, the groupon deal is a better deal because it's a 4 to 1 match.

Kat, have you ever read a book called Ball Don't Lie?

Nope. It looks good though. I can definitely think of at least one kid who would like it.

My principal is trying to get my kids to participate in this anti-bullying program called My Life My Power. So I checked out the website and it's a trainwreck. BUT also fantastic for a minilesson on (1) parallel structure, (2) the power of editing and revising, and (3) the importance of ethos and establishing credibility. Check it out: [link] (I don't know if the video autoplays, so beware).

Oh, this is the being bullying we talked about. OK, wading in. (BTW, does autoplay.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Watching Monday Night Football is making it clear to me that everyone in the world gives their loved ones cars for Christmas, and I am obviously just not loved enough.

OWOWOW. That site. OW.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I think the big bows on cars is probably one of the single most obnoxious things about Christmas. It is more obnoxious than bad fruitcake, more obnoxious than "War on Christmas", more obnoxious than women's orgasm jewelry faces.
