I was reading a review of a movie on netflix, and someone was intending to use the term "homage" - they spelled it:
"omagh"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
A friend posted on FB today that he read a Craigslist ad for "matching armor and night stand," and he wasn't sure if they misspelled "amoire" or "knight."
I kind of hope it was a matching armor and knight stand.

Well, you do need something to hang the armor up at night.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
They also have, just through tomorrow, an ice cream float called the Dublin Honey made with the stout ice cream, Valhrona chocolate sauce, and 10-year-old tawny port

I'm on book 21 of Magic Tree House and I'm getting a little tired of Annie and Jack.
Do you have Berkeley Breathed's kid's books? And Graeme Base's books?
Congrats to CJ!
So instead of watching Season 3 of Downton Abbey, I finished Series 1 of Doctor Who.

Our wings are not tired
Tomorrow I'm attending a former student's graduate thesis show in sound design. I taught her in high school and introduced her to sound design. I still can quite believe she is about to complete her graduate degrees.

I deduced the reason that the neighbor 3 doors down walked away from his house a couple years ago.
Really, you can't just leave me hanging like that...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Theo, she could tell you, but...
My co-workers have started asking me to draw them. Does that ever turn out well? Especially if one of them is a guy who'd described himself to me (aka a non-blind person) as tall dark and handsome. Two out of three, bro. Two's all you got.
Okay, back to posting to the provocateuse tumblr. It has been FOREVER.

Depends on how good the drawing is, and if you do it while he's watching. I've found that non-artists are usually so amazed by the process of drawing when htey watch that they're not too critical of the artist including non-flattering features.
Congrats to CJ!
What was your prekindergarten called, Thunderdome Preschool?
Hah! This was in the halcyon days 4 decades ago when administrators wouldn't regard a rebar sticking up out of a playground dirt pile as litigation waiting to happen (and to be fair my parents never considered suing or even complaining to the parents of the kid who smacked me with it; a lost tooth and busted lip wouldn't even register as anything to cry about in my dad's family). Teachers also let us roll/chase abandoned tires down the hill and then grab them to be flipped over during recess.
