I Know I Mentioned Toucan Before. But This Made Me Laugh.

I know I mentioned toucan before. But this made me laugh.

I know that that means today. I cannot remember the Chinese word, but I know that those two characters is today. So.... That is a thing.

Random linguistic worldbuilding: A language with six sets of pronouns, which are set by one's current state of existence. There's a separate pronoun for people who are alive, people who are dead, and potential future people who are yet to be born, and the ambiguous ones of "may or may not be alive or aleady dead", "may or may not have even been born yet", and the ultimate general/ambiguous all-covering one that covers all ambiguous states.

The culture has a specific defined term for that tragic span of time when a widow keeps accidentally referring to their spouse with living pronouns. New parents-to-be dropping the happy surprise news of a pregnancy by referring to their future child with the "is yet to be born" pronoun instead of a more ambiguous one and waiting for the "wait what did you just say?" reactions.

Someone jokingly referring to themselves with the dead person pronouns just to highlight how horrible their current hangover is. A notorious aspiring ladies' man who keeps trying to pursue women in their 20s despite of approaching middle age fails to notice the insult when someone asks him when he's planning to get married, and uses the pronoun that implies that his ideal future bride may not even be born yet.

A mother whose young adult child just moved away from home for the first time, who continues to dramatically refer to their child with "may or may not be already dead" until the aforementioned child replies to her on facebook like "ma stop telling people I'm dead" and having her respond with "well how could I possibly know that when you don't even write to us? >:,C"

It was not a dream! She did come and try to wake me. LOL

Well. Decided to take a nap. Dreamt my wife was trying to wake me up. Woke up groggy, disoriented, and shaky. Not sure if that nap was worth it.

So the other day my daughter decided to prove to me she could stand still for the 20 minutes she asked her brother to (she wanted to "portrait" him). With five minutes left I decided to sketch her. And I did. It's real funny cause it looks like her and it's terrible quality. So she asked me to color her. I almost forgot. So I spent 20 minutes flat coloring this portrait. I'll let you know if she roasts me in the morning.

i don’t exactly feel like writing but i do very much feel like having written do you see my quandary

you can be peeling a boiled egg and think to yourself wow. that was so simple. and then you peel another one and it’s like being in the throes of war. shell everywhere. egg mangled. tears in your eyes. that’s how god keeps you humble
