To have and to have not
49 days ago
Hearkening back to those Renunciations of 2007...
I have:
- a paid gig
- cut Scrabulous to a single game
- left my Facebook status message unchanged for over twelve milliseconds
- done actual schoolwork!
I have not:
- checked tfd or natalie-dee
- or cypher’s foodlog
No seriously, I am on the wagon.
But I’m dependent on:
- Savage, as always
- PostSecret (to a lesser extent)
- Textism (it’s back, with spare change)
- Some other thing I check so often I don’t even subscribe to it
- Mozilla Firefox, baby!
Oh yes, and:
- Close my Asian grocery and my health food store
- Cancel my grocery delivery service
- Send my organic veg delivery service to hell so I cancel it myself
- Move my cheese shop to High Street
- But Bechdel, don’t go on sabbatical to write another book. The strip is your finest work.

Taste education coordinator, report at 28 months. I am so very proud of my son, the veg and fruit guzzling health fiend.
Snacking at our usual Vietnamese place, we offered Isaac a bite of scallop (served on the half-shell topped with minced garlic, peppers and carrots). He likes trying new things (victory #1). He wasn’t to know what the tender, white, round thing was, as we refrained from characterizing it as anything in particular. He identified it thusly using only his senses: “Yummy fish.” Mama teared up.
Victory #2.

Nitpickety pedant here, rumours of her demise unfortunately not yet confirmed.
O ye professional writers, one is loath to point out a loathe for certain grammatical mistakes. I looked upon said near-archaism profaned within a blog, and I was wroth.
The usual disclaimers apply.
