Please bless us with the moisture we need in our skin to keep us from feeling so itchy.

maternal words of wisdom

• Your personality is not conducive to having a child.

• What?

• A baby is unpredictable from the time it's conceived 'til the day that you die.

sister carmen

Now you can give those names to Sister Carmen.
I never see Sister Carmen anymore.
Oh yeah, because you're a nurser.
Yeah, I'm in the nursery all day.
Why aren't nurses called nursers? Nurse is something you do; not something you are.
Yep. Nursers nurse in the nursery.
Exactly. Just like nunners nun in the nunnery.
Ha. Nunners...

good question

what was that?

a raisin.

why did you put it in my mouth?

the manta ray diet

- Then there was that one episode where we found out that fish don't just have sex like humans.
- Yeah, they just release a cloud of one thing and a cloud of another, and hope they cloud together.
- And then the manta rays swoop in and eat it all.
- Mantas are gross.
- Manta rays eat fish sex for breakfast.

full circle with the lip tissue

» Lips are weird. They're skin, but they're not normal skin.
« Yeah, true. They're half in your mouth and half on your face.
» Outside skin is all dry and lives on land, while the rest of your organ tissue basically lives under water.
« If outside skin is land creatures and inside tissue is underwater breathers, then lips are... amphibians.
» And amphibians are weird.

prayer one-liner

I'm thankful to be leaving a clean house for a good job on a nice day.

1 Nephi 11:21–23 (and the most joyous)

1. Knowest thou the meaning of the tree which thy father saw?
2. Yea, it is the love of God, which sheddeth itself abroad in the hearts of the children of men; wherefore, it is the most desirable above all things.
3. Yea, and the most joyous to the soul.

oh humans. and bands.

• I tried to like them, but it never worked for me. But I tried so hard, because they had street-cred.
• It’s funny once you realize you’ve put way too much effort into trying to like a band.
• Yeah. I have done it many times. You try so hard because it seems like you SHOULD like them. When it’s something that is so trivial. If you don’t like a band when you first hear them, why on earth would you keep trying? Like it’s a chore?
• Yeah. It is a mission you must accomplish. Or else you are a failure.

touché, fiancée

• How are you, Natalie?
• Good. How are you... ummm...
• You forgot my name?!
• And you forgot mine. It's Crystal.

r.i.p. fresh basil

Though it may be dead and tossed over the fence now, thanks so much for the gift of fresh basil. It has been so delicious.
Dead and tossed over the fence?!
Nature at its finest. And cruelest.

almost invitations

I'm starting to think a complete address list of 500 will be the most glorious sight I've ever beheld.
I second that motion.
...
Got an address.
Yes! Put it on the list!

moon! moon!

Coolest moon in the west.
I don't see it!
But it's so cool! It's kinda low...
I see it! And whoa! Whoa... Arabian nights.

lots of locusts. anyone else?

When I walked out of my home a rather large grasshopper jumped over my shoulder—I heard a micro-metallic bang—and the grasshopper came plummeting back over my shoulder and slid across the sidewalk. It was grasshopper antics at their finest.
Since when did they become so lively?
2009: The year of Clint & Cassie. I get the feeling it's their way of celebrating.

can you confirm or deny the time?

• Did you ever find out anything about the meridiem fiasco?
• My best resources intimate that post meridiem is technically correct—but nothing just wants to tell us straight-up. The Chicago Manual of Style mentions post meridiem, but says nothing about post meridian at all, for example.
• So post meridiem is most correct and there is no post meridian?
• I am satisfied that meridian only exists on its own (as a noun) and meridiem only exists with a prefix, ante or post, (as an adjective).

what? no. oh eww.

What has become of you sir?
Tore my right calf in an ultimate frisbee game. SNAP! But it's almost better.
You should try to injure yourself above the waist for a change. At any rate, I wish you a speedy recovery.
True! Maybe I can recruit a cute lady to cause a little lip trauma :P
