What if he just wears a sweater like the one the queen wore in her Christmas pic?

And fewer corgis.

Every time I see poor Torrey Devitto on anything I yell Nanny Carrie at the screen. I came to OTH late, but I am so glad I did. That show was bananas.

I may have told this story before - when I was little my grandma worked in a card shop. I went in with her a lot and hung out in the back or helped straighten the cards I could reach and the stuffed animals (it was the 80s). They had this stuffed cat that I was obsessed with. It was lavender and had a pink heart nose

I really hope Betsy comes home soon!

I learned early on that I have zero ability to be a downstairs dweller. I stayed one night in my sister's college apartment building and was horrified by the noise from upstairs the whole time. I have only ever lived on the top floor of apartment buildings and tried very hard to be a good upstairs neighbor. It was

That movie was all over HBO or one of the movie channels my senior year of college and my roommate and I watched it probably 25 times. We were partial to him at the florist trying to save his plant at the end while clinging to his bulldog. He was sweet.

My mom always said it — I have no idea where it came from. Some weird St. Louis thing in the 70s maybe. Just in case you needed to spell the nearest river and didn't actually know your letters.

Would that be M-I-crooked letter - crooked letter - I - crooked letter - crooked letter - I - humpback - humpback - I?

When they played Lollapalooza in 2009 (?) they only had the first album out. So when they were wrapping up and said they had one song left, several folks bellowed "Blake's Got a New Face" because that was the only one they hadn't played. They were not saving the best for last.

M-W's twitter feed is pretty great. They were on point during the debates. And when their word of the day was vulpine earlier this week, they included a Robin Hood clip. Anyone who deploys Disney's Robin Hood is on my good list.

Mine has the piano book for it. I spent many summer days reading that thing.

I love Bunheads, love Sutton Foster, and loved the musical. I can now only say Stars Hollow like they do in the musical — STAAAARS HOLLOW! with or without arm motions.

Every time I'm at my mom's house for dinner she asks me to get the butter and I say, "Que?" The whole family thinks it's dumb, but we crack up.

What do folks buy on Prime Pantry? I have a credit from prime, but I can't seem to fill a full order. I don't know what I'm doing, which probably doesn't help.

He is too easy to trick into taking pills to be a cat.

It's a light you turn on for like 20 minutes in the morning and it helps with SAD. My therapist lent me hers years ago, and then I got one I turn it on while I'm getting ready in the morning and it helps a lot. I got mine at Bed Bath and Beyond a while ago but they are on Amazon too. She told me to be sure to get one

Beds. One dog. Who mainly sleeps on the couch and human bed. But he likes his options. And he loves the dog beds at my mom's house, so we keep buying them thinking he'll like one at home too, but he never takes to them as much.

Do you have a Happy Lamp?

I don't have a large house, and I have four — three in the living/dining room and one in the kitchen. And I'm seriously considering picking one of these up. Because I like stepping on the edge of a dog bed and skidding across the room.
