Well, there's no can opener...so I can't have that...

A man with 2 sons who constantly take, and lose, the can opener.  He used to get pissed about it, but keep pretty calm...he just mumbled.  But, now he has resigned to the fact that he'll never be in control of the can opener.  His own control that he had exerted on his own father's can opener some 35 years ago now, but a memory.  Damn, am I high.  Anyway, so now he just states it .  It just is.  Now he says, while digging through cabinets; "Well, there's no can opener...so I can't have that..." and moves on to another shelf, hoping for nothing.

it's also worth remembering that doing what you love is more important than obsessing over whether you're worthy to do it in the first place.

A purse should never cost more than the average amount of money you can expect to be inside it. I think this is a fair rule.

It's been a very strange day.

Fuck that! We're not going back for your "cute shoes!"

I'm playing all of this by ear.

Grammy Awards don't go to the right people.  I should get an Oscar for my performance of being upbeat and cheerful, engaged, poised, helpful, encouraging, non-engaging; focusing solely on keeping my husband standing as close to upright as possible. So many people take for granted the nights that they fall asleep.  I don't fall asleep very easily, and my mind just wants to burst with a million horrible thoughts, and I want to cry so badly, but I can't because I can't let Dave, or ANYONE see me upset. I just want a place to go and cry.

I don't regret it. I just wish it hadn't happened.

When you're high on weed and want to get a cup of coffee from the kitchen it takes an hour. Here's why.

Smoked. Watched 5 seasons (20 minutes each) of a new show on Netflix called The End of the Fucking World (or, F**cking) Charlee wanted out: I let him out. And Jada. And Carl. Figured I was up, might as well make coffee. Had to potty. Looked up at the mirror while washing my hands and got sick of seeing no nose-ring in my reflection so I set off to find the box of nose-rings. Tried top drawer of vanity. It was loaded with hundreds of little cosmetic things. Decided I should paint my nails black to hide the paint under my fingernails. Couldn't find black. Forgot I wanted to hide the paint and decided to go with something soft colored; dug for that. Had to dig out the basecoat and topcoat, too, and ran across a pretty earring, so I started looking for its other one. Found little nail clippers. And face cream. Definitely need that at my desk. Then I decided to start separating hair stuff from makeup. Then I got bored and fig...

In conversation.

I'll never forget when Tamra get Simon's name tattooed on her ring finger in a last ditch effort to believe that it would work out. I also remember when she was divorced and got his name cut off her finger.

I think it was like a year later.  Her boyfriend wouldn't propose until Simon's name was no longer on her finger. I think she's happy now.  Simon was an asshole and everyone knew it.

You could be my someone. You could be my scene.

It's gonna be Wednesday tomorrow in six hours.

When do we start back to school??? If you're a mom you say this with some sort of tear in your eye.  Sadness, exhaustion, near-nervous breakdown, something you picked up while cleaning out behind the seats of your SUV.  But that doesn't count.  Anyway, you're going to have strong emotions so you might as well embrace 'em. Why not? Your kids are going to be THRILLED for exactly ONE day .  From the moment they come home from school the first day until summer vacation .... all the way until graduation it's going to fucking blow. So why not let's just give up?  Fuck doing shit with our hair and getting out of our "comfortable clothes" that every-goddamn-body knows you wear religiously - stop lying to yourself!  It's just too much energy to keep lying to yourself, girl. And you know what blows my mind?  It's that they ARE excited for that ONE morning.  Every fucking year. Damn.  That's some tenacity.  Maybe there's hope, but I do...

“If you were to take a nice bud and put it through a grinder, dump it out, and then open up a pre-roll and dump it out, it should be the same,” said Patrick Rooney of Vashon Velvet, a Washington grower that makes premium pre-rolls.

Is shake worth it?    Many pre-rolls (joints) are sold that are made with that particular strain's "shake", or "the stuff that falls to the bottom of the bin while the buds are getting all the attention." Answer?  Depends on the grower.  If you can look at the shake and it looks like decent ground up flower, you're good.  Pretty much expect that you're never going to find shake for sale that's sticky.  Probably.  I've only ever bought shake that look dry, but I've passed over many ounces (and grams!) that looked extremely dry.  I'd go so far as to say completely dehydrated and could break down into dust if you attempted to open the package.  Those aren't great deals. It's like that red & white tin of Thyme you'd find in the back of your grandma's cabinet...what magic must that hold?  Oh, just grey dusty sticks.  Why does she even have this? It occurs to me that shake mixed with actual flower of the same strain ...

OMG that's HORRIBLE....show Mommy!!!

My son.  It ended up being a cartoon his dad was looking at.  There were two old people eating Mexican food and not giving a shit because they didn't care.  Someone else would clean their asses later.
