I had completely forgotten the joy of having sprinkles on my ice cream. They taste like absolutely nothing, but they’re just so much FUN.
I have a new-found respect for my mom and her years and years of supervising my playdates. Three kids? Much harder than two, especially when one of them is expressing her social anxiety by talking too much, too fast, and way, WAY too loud.

I have a solid thirty hours of traveling ahead of me. I hope some part of it will involve tiny bottles.

I just had a really hilarious mental commercial for tiny wine with you drinking the tiny bottle really slowly, talking in a very deep, slow, slow-mo voice, and...
When you talk to God, why do you look into the treetops? Is God a squirrel?

I really need to break myself of the habit of fast-forwarding through dramatic moments in TV shows because they make me nervous.
wtf, dollhouse
I know that Dollhouse got canceled, but that reaaaally doesn’t explain how completely confused I am with this storyline.

Nun: Let me get this straight: you don't believe in God because of "Alice in Wonderland"?
Loki: No, "Through the Looking Glass". That poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter," that's an indictment of organized religion. The walrus, with his girth and his good nature, he obviously represents either Buddha, or, or with his tusks, the Hindu elephant god, Lord Ganesha. That takes care of your Eastern religions. Now the carpenter, which is an obvious reference to Jesus Christ, who was raised a carpenter's son, he represents the Western religions. Now in the poem, what do they do? What do they do? They, they dupe all these oysters into following them and then proceed to shuck and devour the helpless creatures en masse. I don't know what that says to you, but to me it says that following these faiths based on mythological figures ensures the destruction of one's inner being. Organized religion destroys who we are by inhibiting our actions, by inhibiting our decisions out of, out of fear of some, some intangible parent figure who, who shakes a finger at us from thousands of years ago and says, and says, "Do it... do it and I'll fuckin' spank you."
