I always respond--unless you mean responding AS her? That would be cruel, but I might do it if the same person emailed more than once.
God, can you imagine if I wrote back her divorce lawyer like, "never mind, I'm still in love with him, drop the proceedings?" Or, "it's cool, tell his lawyer I don't want any child support..." |
That would be naughty.

Yesterday, Momdigr decided to cook pinto beans.
In the middle of her routine, we get both a phone call, and a personal visit informing us we will have no water for the next few hours, as the water dept is installing a new water main nearby. As Murphy dictates, the beans started to go dry, and needed a little water. No problem, there's probably some residual pressure in our pipes. Nope. Nothing. From any tap. Then I saw the lightbulb turn on over Momdigr's head. She digs around for a minute, and, Viola!, produces a bottle of water, pours it in the beans, crisis averted. A few minutes later there's a smell wafting through the house, that's not just beans. It's not an offensive smell, just different. Momdigr let's out an "Uh-oh." She goes to the trash can and retrieves the bottle, which she shows to me and Popdigr. Grape-flavored water. You could taste that something wasn't quite right with the beans, but, if I hadn't known what it was, I wouldn't have been able to say what the taste was. The beans were totally edible, just different. We had a good laugh and ate grape-flavored pinto beans for supper. |
Last time I was driving back from Houston during the Super Bowl. Now I'm driving back during the Oscars. I'm starting to think major network events are doing this on purpose.
|
I have been driving back from polo tourneys on both days. I am glad :)
|
I'm a little irritated because the place I grabbed dinner was completely empty on Super Bowl night, but extra busy tonight. Apparently nobody gives a crap about the little gold statues...
|
Oh come on, the two aren't remotely comparable. :facepalm:
|
You and I would think that but my bacefook feed is full of it... I have one dude on my feed who watches all this stuff, apparently so he can complain?
|
Comparing the academy awards to the super bowl, for audience draw and ability to govern peoples movements on the day, is crazy talk.
|
Numbers are fun. I just looked them up, and Super bowls typically get 110 million US viewers or so. The Oscars get more like 35-40 million US viewers.
|
Most people don't go to Oscar parties.
|
I didn't watch either, but I have seen Leo's speech multiple times on my newsfeed.
