What I did when I skipped your party last night:
Read my sewing machine manual.
Threaded said sewing machine and practiced various stitches.
Made a janky felt sash, a janky felt hat, and a janky felt drawstring bag.
Made plans to take an intro to sewing class in January.
Made peanut butter balls.

The Kids are All Right: So much less than the sum of its parts that it felt like a Lifetime movie, except in a Lifetime movie maybe someone would have justified the fact that one of the couple’s children is named “Laser.”

Top Five Dumb Things I Said Out Loud to Myself While Writing This Stupid Paper
What the fuck you got to say about motor-homes, Relph?!

One Yam →
I decided I wanted a yam with dinner earlier, put it in the oven and got some stuff done. I then remembered I was hungry as what, made a real dinner and forgot about my poor yam.
