Nuances

The difference in being a cat lady and being cat woman.

Eleanor Roosevelt said this about Franklin Delano:

"I've heard people say to him that, 'If we do this, we don't know if we will be successful,' and I've seen my husband time after time say, 'There are very few things we can know beforehand. We will try and if we find we are wrong we will have to change.'"

I love that.

The truth is, I really have had the worst week ever.

I just survived the absolute worst week of my life. Period.

I wish I were an elephant.

So I'm at this swank dinner party where everyone is throwing their backs out trying to be impressive and interesting when a person in my circle of conversation pops the question, "If you had three wishes what would you wish for?" I take a sip of my ginger ale and smile wickedly; I'll take this, I've had an answer prepared for years.

Just fartin' around on the internet.

Just read about this website

I hate this.

Then I found this website

I want this.

What was in store.

   "Here I am! It's the beginning of day 2 here in Utah, and I don't know what to think. Haven't met Prince Charming yet, but the day is still young.
   I'm actually really enjoying myself going swimming and hanging out with Emily, but Utah is weird. I don't know how to act around all these Mormons - they are all so used to it - it's weird and hard to explain. I'm just a little overwhelmed."

Even Trade

For all the songs I'll never hear
 and all the sunsets I have missed
For friendships that I'll never make
 for lips that I will never kiss

And if not now, when?

"If I am not for myself, who will be for me? And when I am for myself, what am 'I'? And if not now, when?"

It's 11:00pm.

How can I sleep?
