Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Maybe there's a mouse in the stove, sarameg?

I don't think so. He's not looking for anything. Just rubbing all over it and the cabinets and windowsill and Shoving Things Off. Like a giant makeout session. And none of the others care . Even Devi is still up for a good bug chase, and if there were mice, she'd be staring at the stove. She used to stare at the stove in my apartment for HOURS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But he's still a Jesuit if he named himself after Francis of Assisi, yes?

Of course. But naming yourself after the founder of a different order makes a very different statement than naming yourself after the founder of your own order, don't you think? But also this St. F of A bit: "Francis, Francis, go and repair My house which, as you can see, is falling into ruins."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Probably. That is deeper than I am going to try to think about, really. I may be too tired to watch TV, I am definitely too tired to interpret the motivations of pontifical autonomenclature.

pontifical autonomenclature

Woot! That's a hell of a phrase. I mean, clearly the right one, but impressive!

I admit, I am pretty proud of that one.

And you should be.

OK, crazy thing here. Can a person develop synesthesia?

Lately I'll smell things when I see pictures of them. Not always, but frequently enough that its beginning to weird me out.

The other day it happened with Makers Mark. Just now it happened with Fig Newtons.

Now, bourbon is something I adore... but newtons, while a tasty snack, are hardly a passion. Neither are twinkies or vanilla, two other things I've recently smelled upon seeing pictures of them.

I smell it just for a second. I can't make myself smell it again. Maybe I was bit by a radioactive pregnant woman.
