Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Heh, I read that as bear joint, not beer joint, the first time through.

That jollied me out of my funk over Warren, a little. I have to respect her wisdom and decision-making, but I'm more than a little in mourning for What Could Have Been.

That's adorable, Cashmere!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all !

Thing I never thought I would say, part whatever: "You can stop cleaning the sink now, Mr. S"

Kids are weird.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Today's trip to the podiatrist went well. He told me I can just wait and see regarding my banged-up toenail as long as it doesn't get painful or infected, as it's probably about 6 months out from being completely detached by the new nail growing underneath. In the process of examining he trimmed it WAY shorter than I ever would have, especially at the corners, so it feels weird and uncomfortable though not exactly painful.

We laughed about it changing colors under different lights and me calling it a mood toenail. In his office it had an orange-ish cast. More yellow under the lights at work, purplish at home, and a particularly ghastly shade of green at my GP's office, which caused the intern shadowing him to gasp out loud when I pulled my sock off.

You know you've achieved something when you shock and dismay an intern who's dissected a medical cadaver recently!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes!!

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

Cash - that's funny because I know a Lisa Story.

RE: Timothy Hutton - NO! ugh why must everyone suck.

RE: Warren. fuck fuck and fuckity fuck. I do like that she is not rushing to endorse anyone. I am only giving money to women candidates moving forward. I am only volunteering for women candidates and I am only voting for women candidates (unless they are evil).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

That's some toenail!

Why am I picturing this written in a spiderweb?

Not...commenting on politics today. But, yay, Zen, on job and a work environment that sounds pleasant!

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

I saw the Timothy Hutton thing a few days ago. Fuuuuuck everything.

Democrat turnout was up 650K in Texas, so that's something.
