can i be on the list? just kidding. kind of. xoxo!!!
Of course. The list is really pretty much everyone who’s ever on my dash, but 200-odd people (less the ones who don’t post and just haven’t been weeded out / are repeats for topical tumblrs) in one room gets kinda crowded. We might need to rent...
someone bought a book from me on amazon
they live about 10 minutes away from me. would it be acceptable for me to put it in a box, address it, and drop it on their front porch?
"The exact way Lunesta works is unknown."
capriquarius:
“Lunesta has some risk of dependency. Walking, eating, driving or engaging in other activities while asleep without remembering it the next day have been reported. Other abnormal behaviors include aggressiveness, agitation, hallucinations and confusion. In depressed patients, worsening of depression including risk of suicide may occur.”
Well, that’s reassuring. Thanks,...

driving with me, the bleeding heart
me: oh my gosh, dad, did you see that animal dragging itself across the road?
dad: yah, looked like a muskrat
me: it was hurt! turn around!
dad: what would you do with it?
me: i dunno, put it out of its misery?
dad: how? run over it again?

i would make up a joke about people who don’t like other people or know how to relate to them congregating and silence reigning, but i don’t want to.
also, i’m a little resentful of the whole thing, so if there’s a news story about how someone flipped out at a conference tomorrow, that would be me.

Oh, poop
The boys I’m babysitting are apparently now in the “repeating things I say” stage. Which is bad, because I just asked Lewis if he had pooped, and now he is walking around saying “poop poop poop”

Torture
Torture I say! I’m having a sleep study done. I am hooked up to all sorts of wires and tubes and stuff. They recorded info last night while I slept and now they have begun to torture me.
Every two hours, I am to sit in the bed, hooked up to the wires, in the dark, and not fall asleep. For FORTY minutes. And no sleeping. Despite the fact that it’s dark and I’m sleepy and all...

(copied from here, but so brilliant i had to share)
A lingering fear of mine was confirmed last night: My dog might be slightly retarded. I’ve wondered about her intelligence ever since I adopted her and subsequently discovered that she was unable to figure out how stairs worked.
I blamed her ineptitude on the fact that she’d spent most of her life confined to a small kennel...

Litany by Billy Collins
redwoodroots:
You are the bread and the knife, the crystal goblet and the wine. You are the dew on the morning grass and the burning wheel of the sun. You are the white apron of the baker, and the marsh birds suddenly in flight. However, you are not the wind in the orchard, the plums on the counter, or the house of cards. And you are certainly not the pine-scented air. There is just no way that...

This is my favorite poem. I’m having trouble pulling a good quote out of it if I did happen to want another tattoo. Perhaps:
It might interest you to know, speaking of the plentiful imagery of the world, that I am the sound of rain on the roof.
i like “i am the sound of the rain on the roof” around a wrist, perhaps?
