One and two I'm okay with, but three, no. And I've even been to Tule Lake.

I don't think those two categories are mutually exclusive.

TPBM has been given a blank journal and is trying to decide what to fill it with.

Indeed I have. Filling it with bad poetry would be a crime, but I like to be a rebel so...

TPBM loves the feel of new stationery!
When he lights his streetlamp, it is as if he brought one more star to life, or one flower.
When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.
That is a beautiful occupation.

I do! The feel, the smell... the potential. And I hate the feeling I get after first using it. Somehow, its potential always seems diminished.

TPBM is comparing apples to oranges and wondering which would make a better mid-morning snack on Monday.

Not often, no. For me, whistling requires a lot of concentration.

tedious, more onerous. my sister says don't try to eat the elephant all at once. I just can't see the breakdown of tasks involved in getting it all done. living better. yeah, family get togethers sort of bring that on. I was the only one who needed to be barefoot out on the lawn.

tpbm doesn't remember when they last went barefoot on a cool lawn.

I don't own a forge, but I was recently in Toledo, Spain and watched a demonstration on the subject - does that count?
