I like listening to whale sounds to fall asleep to. I like the tracks where they are arguing about who likes plankton the most, the best. It always amazes me how articulate they can be. —human 79,553,753,126*

It's obvious the trouble we're in
When your father pulls up in a Mercedes Benz
He says he just happened to be in the neighborhood
But before he leaves he slips the landlord the rent
You say, "It's just a question of eliminating obstacles"
As you throw your dinner out the kitchen door
You say, "I know how you try"
But honey, let's eat out tonight

But honey, let's eat out tonight
No one said it would be easy
But no one said it'd be this hard
No one said it would be easy
No one thought we'd come this far
You can't seem to ever fold up a shirt
I bring it up and you think I'm a jerk
But I think we're here to stay
I can't imagine it any other way
Sometimes I wonder who he's picturing
When he looks at me and smiles
Oh, and look we've come this far

When you open its unassuming brown wrapper, it looks like a cow patty, filled with oats, nuts, rice, a long list of vitamins and minerals... you take a bite expecting that health food taste, but OMG the teeth sink into ooey gooey goodness, the consistency of cookie doe chewy dates, crisp rice and nuts, sweet chocolate OMF I'm in love with you cliff bar you tasty muthafucka. —Happy Fat Chick

I feel his hands, roughened by spark plugs and washer fluid yet sweetened by overflowing oil pans, slide over me. His arms and shoulders remind me of deep river valleys and other places where we could tumble after setting the parking brake. Love you my sexy mechanic! —Your Girlfriend
This could technically be a bitch or a love, but my feeling is more so the latter. I work upstairs for a certain bank, and it’s becoming routine for me to go and get french fries on Thursday nights. Dunno why, but it’s a thing. Every time I come down there my order takes forever, HOWEVER...these french fries??? So hot, fresh,and on point salt-wise. EVERY TIME. you guys are my new favorite. —I’m REALLY loving it

To the gentleman who approached me at the bike rack outside Superstore to congratulate me on my biking—for signalling, waiting for traffic, following the rules of pretending to be a car and then "also being quite fast"—thank you! that was unexpected and totally wholesome. —Compliant cyclist

Huge thank-you to the driver of the #4 this afternoon who stopped his bus when he saw a loose, unfriendly-looking dog approaching me and my much-smaller dog. This dog has gotten loose before and she's very persistent in pursuing my dog, and this time she seemed more unfriendly than usual. The bus driver offered to drive my dog and I down the road to get out of her reach.
Another thanks to the passenger who got off the bus to help the dog's owner catch the dog. –Holly & her Poop-Bag-Holder
