this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I think one of them will go toward a peach salsa for some salmon that's defrosting for tomorrow

That sounds fantastic!

Our wings are not tired.

So, I am getting a roommate for the rest of the summer. Brendon says he can't stay in the apartment because everything reminds him of her so she is staying and he is going to come stay with me while he figures things out. That is fine. I can use his help and I can work on helping him get his act together. I expect we'll try and find something in Florida by the end of summer. I have plenty of room for him in Otter Lake, but no room in Florida.

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

I biffed it but take comfort in my belief that that is not a proper word

I only got it on the last guess, and I had no confidence. Phew, indeed.

Braces off on August 11th, woo! It was supposed to be the 4th, but the retainer won't be ready in time. Two weeks, yay!

Heat index may go up to 109° today. Argh.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Same.

not a proper word

Eh. It's a valid Scrabble word. Wordnik has it, but all the examples cited there put it in quotes.

I got it in 6 in part because y’all said it wasn’t a word and I was like “well, of the options I have left..”

Sometimes complaining can help someone else! A lesson I will no doubt take too much to heart
