[Deep Thoughts] Lani and I have dubbed this week (the one before New Years) “Prep Week.” The quiet week where you do things like go to the DMV and the hairstylist and have your prescriptions transferred to your new pharmacy. Mostly because next week, the first week of the year, is going to be Hell Week. Ugh.

At some point in my teenage years, my family stopped “doing” Christmas. We didn’t quit cold turkey, but something changed. It wasn’t unreasonable. Life is busy, which I didn’t understand until I went…

[Deep Thoughts] Ellipses, hypens, and em/en dashes are not periods. It’s okay to use a period every now and then. In fact, IT’S PREFERABLE. I don’t understand grammar trends!

Reason No One Will Marry Me #194,000: I'm Mean.
K: (Looking at a picture of Crosby the Christmas Tree.) It looks so short and chubby.
Me: I know, SO CUTE! He's actually taller than me. I think he just photographs short.
K: Hmm. He does look really short. Perhaps it's the wide base.
Me: You think that'll happen to you if you keep "widening your base?"
K: (Long pause.) ... PROBABLY.
