This is exactly what her speeches sound like. All...
Kally: remember that food show that always has really weird speakers that have nothing to do with food?
like last year, there was Sully Sullenberger and Sinbad
and the year before that was George W Bush?
Levon just told me that this year, it's Sarah Palin.
Tim: super
Kally: I kind of want to hear what she says about the restaurant industry
Tim: you betcha
Real american cuisine like the olive garden and the taco bell, donchaknow
Kally: something about small business and how taxes are bad and crazy environmentalists who believe in organic farming and lipstick on pitbulls.
Tim: none of the east-coast liberal elitist food like FAY-LAFF-ELZ or AROOGALUH
Kally: FAY LAFF ELZ ARE MUSLIM FOOD THAT OBAMA EATS.
So I'm setting up my new phone ...
anarchyandscotch:
This is only my second smartphone, and since I’m moving from Android to an iPhone, nothing really transferred over, so I have to redownload all the apps and set them up. Which is a pain, because now I’m trying to remember throwaway passwords I came up with two years ago.
One of the apps I reinstalled was HeyTell, which is a walkie-talkie app that I use fairly infrequently, and...

francofile replied to your post: Someone should tell Richard what a period is. Do you want to be the one to explain it to him or do I have to?
A period is a punctuation mark used to denote the end of a declarative or imperative sentence. Would you have subtitles on the movie to show the sentence structure? Are they librarian and schoolteacher puppets? I’m not sure how the model helps….
Tim, we...

cleapow asked: Kally. Do you think of me on your light days the way I think of you on my light days?

I ran tonight.
No sense wasting the warm weather and snowless streets. I went out by myself and did 4 miles, and it was easy and it felt good. It had been nearly three weeks since I ran, and who knows? Maybe it will be frigid tomorrow and it will take three more weeks before I can go again.
My running buddies have been asking when we’ll get back out, but I snuck out on my own. I know it helps them to run...
Kally,
rartastic:
According to the definition in that article I referred to, a lot of what dogs do isn’t thinking. It is the result of learning, not independent thought processes. Classical conditioning and operant conditioning are not “thinking” in this definition.
That is not to say, of course, that dogs CAN’T think, just that a lot of examples people give AREN’T thinking.
Right, I assume that...

Knitting Cheetahs
Stitching and Bitching
Today, I am making a feather duster costume for a coworker’s daughter, who is performing in the school play. Traditionally, the role of Babette from Beauty and the Beast is played as a flirtatious French maid, and I have to be careful not to make the costume too sexy because my friend’s daughter is 13.
That makes the total of the past 3 days’ creative endeavors: 1 tequila...

Shoot, I forgot to do anything at all today.
I'm knitting a scarf, and I don't know when to...
When it comes to scarves, the longer the better, right?
Is 6 feet too long for a scarf? HOW CAN YOU TELL??
EDIT: 8. It’s 8 feet. I’ve made an 8 foot long scarf.
trinilikesalt asked: Just wanted to say - your anatomically correct drawing of a blond wig in a ponytail was inspiring. You have a bright future in both the hairdressing and biology textbook drawing industries. First pyramidicks, now this. Kudos. Nay, accolades.

listofnow asked: HI. I get to see you today! A dinner with Kally day is always a good day.
You guys, Kally and I have an announcement.
cleapow:
We are upset that not that many people follow our blog of our adorable soulmatey antics: Soulmatey.
We are so hilarious and adorable and you should follow it.
Unless of course you find us obnoxious. In that case, don’t tell us. We don’t like rejection.
This is all true. Especially the part about rejection.
We’re fragile.

Can I get hired as a temp just for tomorrow?
YES, I CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN.

WHOA.
Whoa.
(I posted it this way because there were rules, and I was trying to follow them. Whatever it takes to make Eddie Izzard happy.)
A Pork Themed Event is happening at my company...
Roasted pork tenderloin.
Deviled eggs made with bacon fat and topped with crispy bacon.
Maple bacon cake and chocolate-covered bacon for dessert.
By 3pm, we’ll all be napping at our desks, but it will TOTALLY BE WORTH IT.

cleapow asked: I miss you. That's all I have to say. I miss you and I am sorry my life is so complicated and crazy and that my new job blocks chat because my days are weird when I can't share my office antics with you. Also, I love you. Now that's really all I have to say. Nunchucks. I wasn't done yet. I needed to keep saying things. Now I'm done.

but why was it so important or ONE girl to have the school prayer removed?
were her studies being interrupted because of a prayer on the wall she didn’t have to look at?
i seriously doubt it.
was she going to die from it being on the wall?
GTFO, of course not. that would be ridiculous.
no, you don’t have to pray it or believe it or whatever. but what...

Dear Rhode Island,
I love you. Honestly, I do. But you don’t make it easy.
There are a few things that are permanently connected to Rhode Island for me: Coffee milk, beach traffic, terrible accents, and the separation of church and state.
Seriously. I don’t know if you realize it, but the separation of church and state is a concept invented by Roger Williams, who also happened to...
One of my roommates keeps talking about how she...
I keep reminding her that I sell soup so I don’t get snow days, and the worse the weather is, the busier and more stressful my job becomes. Once, she rolled her eyes and said that nothing that bad would actually happen if I took a snow day once in a while. But it would, because my peer, the other me, is on maternity leave until March, so my department consists of me and two temps. We had...
An Open Letter to My Mobile Carrier's Customer...
While I understand that it’s not your fault that my cell phone freezes three seconds into its boot sequence, I still will not accept that I deserve a “like-new” replacement for the phone that I bought new one month ago. If my month-old phone is already giving me trouble, how much better do you think a refurbished phone could possible do?
Telling me that I had 14 days to report...
Things I Did Today:
-Rode around in my father’s truck with him like I did when I was 5
-Met my great aunt Jane for the first time. She’s 101, and she pulled my face right up close to hers so she could see me. And then she called me pretty, and then I blushed.
-Had a debate my my cousin who supports Ron Paul wherein he asserted that the separation of church and state is invaluable, and I had the...

I usually say I don’t drink, but that’s not strictly true. Drinking makes me feel guilty, and I don’t really like myself when I’m drunk, so not drinking is just easier than feeling awful.
I also have a history of making very bad decisions. Not just ordinary bad decisions, but spectacularly dangerous things where I’m really fortunate not to have suffered worse...
