eris levels up

Eris: (finding a glass that the cat knocked over) "Oh. That's good."
Me: "Is it broken?"
"No, that's why it's good."
"Oh. You sounded kind of sarcastic."
"I thought you said I didn't have a sarcastic voice."
"You do, kind of. It's very subtly different."
(triumphantly) "I'm subtle!"

Disregard last post. That day sucked; the day after quite made up for it and I've been back on an even keel since.

...Also, I just got up in the middle of writing this post, stepped on my laptop's power brick and went sliding across the wood floor. I kept my balance and neither end of the cord was adversely affected. It would have been pretty cool if it were intentional.

you don't say

"Untrammeled homosexuality can take over and destroy a social system. If you isolate sexuality as something solely for one's own personal amusement, and all you want is the most satisfying orgasm you can get - and that is what homosexuality seems to be - then homosexuality seems too powerful to resist. The evidence is that men do a better job on men and women on women, if all you are looking for is orgasm .... It's pure sexuality. It's almost like pure heroin. It's such a rush. . . . Marital sex tends toward the boring end. Generally, it doesn't deliver the kind of sheer sexual pleasure that homosexual sex does." — Michigan Journal of Gender & Law, Chaos, Law, and God: The Religious Meanings of Homosexuality, 2008

I'm standing at the kitchen table and Eris is sitting at my feet, dutifully fussing over my skirt ties. I can get so used to this.
