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.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

zzzzz morning meeting more irritating than usual

And I have a sudden craving for onion rings. It is too early for onion rings.

Meeting now at two hours, one hour longer than planned.

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

Almost time for onion rings, then?

Ann, that's a ferret.

It's always time for the right onion rings.

Damnit, I really might need onion rings for lunch now.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

I'm here with your obligatory yearly reminder to go get you some paczki today. I lost count of how many different fillings our neighborhood bakery offered. More than 10, I know that much. Damn, the bakery smelled GOOD.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now I want onion rings! Instead I have had girl scout cookies. Actually, eating too many cookies to get rid of the box is 100% in the spirit of Shrove Tuesday, no?

ION, my job is so crazy. I just smiled at someone in the hall who seemed vaguely familiar, but you know, most people I've met here now seem vaguely familiar, and then I realized her mother was in the same unit as my father in the nursing home!

Hah, Jesse.

I arrived half an hour early for this training. If I'd known, I would have walked the dog more...

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Nothing for Shrove Tuesday here. Maybe I will make pancakes or waffles for dinner tonight.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

This is the time of year when I feel a little bereft that I've never tried paczki, but they aren't really a thing in LA.
