Yeah, that's not an insult! What are kids learning these days? Why in my day, when someone wanted to bully you...
I am very jealous of Kat having access to that many fruit trees, dang! Not that I would even know how or when to eat a cherimoya.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I don't know what a cherimoya is, but it sounds much more delicious than anything growing in my backyard.

Oh and this is probably bad, but: there was a bank robbery in my neighborhood (bad), but the suspect was apparently described as, and put in the police description as "orange". They later clarified they means "George Hamilton-esque", but still. My first thought was that an Oompa Loompa had robbed the bank!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
And dude, who thinks "you belong at Hogwarts" is even an insult? Hogwarts is awesome!
I know, right? But that was her point, she was taken aback that someone would say it like it was a bad thing.

Cherimoya is delicious, Jessica.

When I walked into her room, she was waving her foot around setting the alarm off. GROWL.
Well, that's so Grace...
Nice confidence job, Franny!
No idea on the robberies. Still not clear to me if they are burglaries or muggings. There are ridealongs in NE next week and I'd love to do one but I've got enough I've got to figure out next week.

Awww, yay Franny! Good job, kiddo.

EXACTLY.

Figs. Fresh figs. What I wouldn't give to nom. I miss figs.
Grace - stop setting off alarms on purpose.
Go Franny!
The skin on my knee has finally healed, but it has been hurting all day. A dull throb when I'm not moving it. When I check range of motion, it hurts at both ends of the spectrum. I can stand and walk and all that, but if I lightly bump it against something I see stars. I know I banged it up pretty good, but it has been over 2 weeks now.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Theatrical Buffistas, I've been reading about Peggy Clark (Kelley) this evening. She was a friend of my grandparents in their retirement, apparently! Very interesting woman I would never have heard of if my father hadn't happened to mention her in passing.
Cool! She's not as well known as Tharon Musser but certainly an interesting lady.
You people are making me want avocados.
