"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That sounds delish, Steph.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Sometimes I throw in corn kernels if there are some hanging around. And if I remember, I dice up fresh mozzarella (not the kind that comes in a block, but the soft squishy kind that comes in a tub of water [?] whey [?]) and toss it in, too. Basically, you can bastardize it however you want and it's still good.

Oooh, black beans would be good.

Liese, those look good. I'd love a pair. Instead, I'm buying another pair of sockwell compression socks.

They're great. I thought they were replaceable insole, but it looks like only kinda? But they're a little big on me anyway, so I think I can just add in the foam-backed insoles and they would be like new again. They've got good enough treads to go outside to get firewood or feed the birds or whatever, but are still light enough to lounge around.

Kat, my brother-in-law had growth hormone treatment as a kid. While still the shortest member of his family (all his siblings and his father are well over 6', and his mother was 5'10" or 5'11"), he wound up a respectable 5'7". May it go well and suck minimally.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And I'm awake. Screw you, body.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On the slipper front, I've had these for years and they are still cozy. [link]

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

One of my very good friends had this, and it went well for him too. He is also around 5'7 or 5'8, so not super tall. His mom and dad are both really short though, so now he is taller than they are.

There was just a whole bunch of police officers at my house looking for my downstairs neighbors daughter who possibly committed a crime. It was a little weird because they asked me if I knew the name, and I didn't, but then they showed me a picture and I said I thought she might be related to my downstairs neighbor. Geez Louise!

Yikes!
