Oh, context. Thine bitch thou dost so often make.

“A quick look at my search history makes it look like I’m a pederast planning to take a kid to EuroDisney and then get in his pants. Which is so not true. I’m going to take him to Cirque de Paris.”

Spelling necessary is not unnecessary.

As a child, I excelled at every subject in school. Scored in the 99th percentile on all standardised tests. And, I always placed into the school spelling bee. Often won. In sixth grade, I failed on a fairly difficult word. I was irritated enough that I didn’t bother to remember what word it was.

Delayed reaction.

My dad’s had some work issues. Got everything resolved. Since then, I drove to my parent’s place for the first time this afternoon.

The most amazing fireworks I’ve ever seen.

Torello is a small village down the mountain from Ravello on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. Every third Sunday in September, there is a reconstruction of the first invasion of Pisani. The Virgin Mary is paraded around the village and the festivities begin when she reaches the central cathedral. All the houses of the hamlet are illuminated by lights that change colour and a massive fireworks display to represent the sequence of the four historical events: the battle, the fire, the pillage until the defeat and the driving out of the Pisani.

Queue up and wait.

This one I’ll never get. Everyone will get on the plane. They’ll spend 10 minutes calling your name over even after everyone but you has boarded, before they close the door. And yet as soon as they call general boarding, everyone lines up and waits.
