http://merrymaudlin.blogspot.com/2014/09/simmer-down-my-pot-of-clay.html
Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Thursday, September 25, 2014. Simmer Down, My Pot Of Clay. Well, my friends, zero hour is fast approaching. The movers are coming at 9am Saturday, and I'd say as of this evening we are maybe. 58% packed. It's a little hard to tell, because the process of packing inherently makes everything else way more goddamn. Luckily college prepared me for this sort of thing, and by tomorrow night I'll have fully slipped into ...

Mad Merry Maudlin: Truth In Distant Places
http://merrymaudlin.blogspot.com/2015/02/truth-in-distant-places.html
Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Sunday, February 01, 2015. Truth In Distant Places. On Friday night I was consumed with the completely bizarre desire to make stuffed shells with ricotta and eggplant and zucchini, which is just insane, you guys. If you know anything about me, it's that given the choice between Cooking and Doing Anything Else, I'm going to pick the latter. Unless the latter involves. In which case I won't do that either. Ugh.

Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Sunday, December 29, 2013. A Pat Of Butter In A Hot Frying Pan. Me: Okay. This week we have the party with Lizzie and LB, and then romance! Reader's evening get-together. You should show up at both of them for at least a little bit. EtS: I will attend one of them, for no more than two hours. As the first party does not include a cat, that is the one I choose. Me: If you're going to skip romance! EtS: I find your t...

Mad Merry Maudlin: A Sense Of Superiority To The Sleeping World

Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Sunday, January 26, 2014. A Sense Of Superiority To The Sleeping World. Well, guys, it was touch and go for a while where, but I survived my all-night teen lock-in at the library with my sanity- if not my voice- intact. Anyway, we played Ultimate Spoons ("Miss Monica? Somehow a spoon ended up in the light." "The 20-foot-high runner light? Yes") and Sardines ("WHERE IS HE HIDING? As it should be. Of course, now.

Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Friday, December 13, 2013. Truly Songs And Tales Fall Utterly Short Of Your Enormity. Sometimes, friends, I say to myself, “Self, you’re not some nerdy high school kid anymore, or a college student prone to making bad life choices. You’re a goddamn adult. With a job and insurance and shit like that. At some point, you should probably stop going to midnight shows of ridiculous movies. You definitely. Truly Songs An...

Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Sunday, January 19, 2014. Friends, I want you all to brace, because this is going to shock you. Only fourteen years late, I have fully embraced this new century and all the technology contained therein. Namely, I. I have. I am now the proud new owner of. I know, guys. I know. It's blowing my mind. But look how pretty he is! It's the purplest birthday present EVER! What do you mean. You dropped it in a lake, too?

Mad Merry Maudlin: Oooh WEEEEEE Ooooooooooooooh....
http://merrymaudlin.blogspot.com/2013/01/oooh-weeeeee-ooooooooooooooh.html
Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Friday, January 11, 2013. I was in charge of our work Holiday (Not Christmas) party this year, and although I don't particularly like to plan things, I do. Like to name them. It was pretty epic, if I do say so myself. Of course, it meant I came home this evening with six dozen TARDIS luminaries that a co-worker and I painstakingly cut out of cardstock over the space of several afternoons. So yep. That's going ...

Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Sunday, January 05, 2014. The Good We Oft Might Win. Okay, I admit that I loved Pomme's suggestion of Eight Million New Year's Resolutions, because why disappoint yourself on one front when you can do it from every direction possible, right? So with that in mind, here's what we've got for 2014. Some of them are one-shots, some are designed to allow me to fail slowly over the course of a year. 2) Write a poem.

Happiness is a gift, and the trick is not to expect it, but to delight in it when it comes. Sunday, January 12, 2014. What Kind Of House Doesn't Have Salt? I just had the following text conversation with XPhile! Kaye regarding my newest demonic acquisition:. Kaye: GIRL. That freaky ass ornament you got at your Christmas party is amazing! Me: I KNOW AND NOW IT IS IN MY HOUSE! XPK: What are you going to do with it? XPK: You'll probably find it somewhere weird after you were sure it was in the box. Is licen...
