Besides, I'm still at the "I have over a week" stage (8 days to be precise), PLENTY OF TIME.
Yellow socks? What yellow socks... la, la, la, out of sight, out of mind....for now.
Instead let me distract you with this:
So two things:Instead let me distract you with this:
First: I've progressed beyond "swatch" on my mom's new socks. Whether or not she realizes it, she's going to be representin' some Harry Potter with the Horcrux Socks that are developing on the needles. I am so subversive, I know.
Second: I am so out of the loop of things that I had no idea Opus was modeling again! Somewhere in all my backed up data is a scanned photo of a grey-scaled "gap" ad with Opus in his whitey-tighties looking so very cool. The original adorned my school binder about 9 (gasp) years ago--I wasn't still in school though...I was umm, teaching it. My students never for a second doubted my insanity, "Seriously, Teacher, a penguin in underwears?" (They were second-language learners.) The back of that same binder sported the infamous "Bang Head Here" sign:
Lemme tell ya, if you were me back then? Your school binder would reflect similar tastes, of that I am certain.
Anyhow, I was beyond tickled to see Opus out and about again. I am a Berkeley Breathed fan of old. One of the many many many things that utterly convinced my mother I could not be hers, was the trend I had of cutting out the Sunday comics of "Bloom County/Outland" and taping them up on my bedroom wall up around the ceiling until I had ringed the entire room (this wasn't too hard as I
Okay...three things:
I have to go get ready for a dental appointment now. I seem to have broken one of my favorite molars with my super powers; the work of Damage Girl is never done, boys and girls.

But hopefully they will be able to do something about it and the accompanying jagged edges that are ripping apart the inside of my too chubby cheeks today.
Onward and upward! Or something.

i hate the dentist. well, my old dentist. i really like my new dentist. he gives me laughing gas with the novicane and a set of headphones so that i can listen to the radio. last time, he said i could use my ipod instead. it was great.
i've come to the conclusion that sleeping on the plane is out of the question when you could be doing something more productive. like knitting.
maybe you could block the socks while wearing them? though...i'm not sure how well that will go over. just sayin'...since i've blocked a hat on my head once. and that worked out okay. or get sock blockers. maybe that will help. idk.
So you're REALLY going with MJ? Honest? It's kind of funny, huh?
Tell her I send my love... If you run out of things to talk about on the flight, there's always myself and Steve...
Though I don't know as she knows I have a Steve, but whatever. I know she knows I have a taste for Steves in general, but not knowing anything about this Steve in particular. Oh well. I'm sure you can handle the confusion. You've been in the family long enough.
