Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Because books.

My Saladworks chicken caesar is delicious except it's *drowning* in dressing. Must remember to ask for it on the side. I did ask for a whole wheat roll, and no one even had a gun to my head.

In fact, Colin was all "But, no, your breasts are really big" the other day

Not helpful, Mr. Man.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went to celebrate my coworker's birthday with cupcakes and brownies, and also get two things checked off my to-do list! Good one.

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

I realise that this might be my "does this make my ass look big" question, but they're not! I've seen some huge mams on normal sized women--mine really don't rate. There are some proportion issues, I'll grant, but I would get laughed out of the big titty club.

Hmmph.

My head tubes feel like they're prepping for war--minor sore throat, itchy ears, and when I rub them, there's an ache deeper in--is there anything I can do other than rest and liquids to forestall this? Is vitamin C a myth? Zinc? WHAT???? I don't want to be sick. I actually don't do it that often, and I'm pretty crap at it, and handle it like a pouty five year old.

Yesterday I asked the restaurant with the magic muffins if their spicy chicken soup was really spicy, and they came back with the perfect sample size--enough to tell me that, yes, too spicy and I should just order the tomato bisque, but since it was a couple ounces or more, actually enough to taste and appreciate without upsetting my stomach. I hate when food is tasty, but not compatible with my tummy. But I really like it when I have established a relationship with an establishment so they think they've given me enough to enjoy too (this is the place that made me a hamburger in their opening weeks and forgot the meat--they replaced that travesty with a proper burger, and gave me six or seven coupons for free garlic fries--hey presto changeo! Devoted customer created in an instant. I buy three magic muffins three times a week and garlic fries once, and I usually have their soup of the week too.)

Zinc is supposed to work, but I've never really tried it. My sister-in-law swears by the nose swab zinc.

Where did all you guys go???

I went into the office this morning to grab my work laptop and then went back home before the weather conditions worsened. Now I'm working in my pajamas and using all my willpower not to take a nap.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My sister-in-law swears by the nose swab zinc.

I thought those were all recalled because people were losing their sense of smell?

Our wings are not tired.

I haven't used Zinc. I have flooded myself with fluids and C with success.

Oh. Well, she is the crazy sister-in-law.

A doctor told me that vitamin C was only good to help you not get sick, but how could it hurt?

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I have used the lozenges(I think they work.)
