Which reminds me I have to write my mother the rent check...
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I ordered silk glove liners from Wintersilks. You'd think I would realize that they come in pairs, and order one, not two. Sometimes I wonder how I manage to dress myself.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
It doesn't sound foolish to me.
Personally, I'd try to not think about it for, say, 48 hours. Then when I think about it again my brain will have sorted through a lot of stuff without my nails suffering for it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Extra silk glove liners is not a bad thing. They are super easy to lose.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Silk glove liners are great. An extra pair is a good idea! Your subconscious was on the job.
ION, my niece just got accepted into grad school! So exciting! She's going for a Masters in public history.

(OMG how can I work 30 more years??)
No kidding! I have to renew certification for National Boards every ten years. I did renew this year, but I will have to do this twice more before I retire. At $1500 a pop, it's pricey but also DEPRESSING.
I am old, but apparently not old enough.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Earlier today, my mom was trying to figure out why there were a ton of military helicopters in the sky over her house. Turns out it was a practice run for a flyover at the Super Bowl. (The stadium isn't too far from where my parents live.) Seems like they could have warned people that this would be happening, and not to panic. (OK, according to one article, residents in some towns did get robocalls telling them about it, but not all the towns that they'd be flying over.)

Ugh, the chain on my bedroom light (ceiling fan) pulled out this morning. I'll deal with that tomorrow -- it seems easy enough from the internet? But means I have to turn off the power, so I'd better do it when it's light out. I am glad it happened now, though, and not to my grandmother....
