Who woke me up?? 



Sleep not found. 


Good Quote from Austen

You know the story of Emma, right?

She tried to set up an innocent young friend with a man she thought was admirable, but it turns out Mr. Elton thinks very highly of himself and wants a trophy wife.

When Mr. Elton returns home with an obnoxious new bride, Emma muses:

    She was, in fact, beginning very much to wonder that she had ever thought him pleasing at all; and his sight was so inseparably connected with some very disagreeable feelings, that, except in a moral light, as a penance, a lesson, a source of profitable humiliation to her own mind, she would have been thankful to be assured of never seeing him again. She wished him very well; but he gave her pain, and his welfare twenty miles off would administer most satisfaction.

I like that!  I can also think of a person or two whom I wish very well at a distance of twenty miles!  Or better, make that 200 miles, to be comparable with today’s sense of distances 🙂


What an adorable error message

I admit it, I sometimes collect the really cute error messages and 404s

Testing

Publishing by sending an email...
Clipped this out of the same catalog as "dilligara" :-)

Explanation

It's clever, but not polite! I don't usually say that word.

I can't think about "rat" without "patootie" (remember that line in Ratatouille?) so there you go.

"Do I Look Like I Give A Rat's Patootie?"

Of course Dilligara was taken, but I only checked out of curiosity. I really didn't want it.

This is cuter!
