Post o List
So . . . I don't think my 15 minute project will work, as I don't have enough time to answer comments for a post a day. *tinkers* Now it is every other day, except Sundays. Because that is the Lord's day, which means I work until 6, get home at 7, then because Sunday's The Lord's Movie Night, overload on cookies and movies about cannibals. Or something.
But I am posting today, because I keep thinking, "Oh! I should do a post about that!" and I do not have a List. Lists make me feel very cozy, like Linus's blanket. I like to think of things to cross off on them and then write them down and then not cross them off. Anyway, this list probably won't make that much sense to anyone but me. I plan to add to it and cross things off. But who knows.
Madeya look.
