A+ kudos to jerri for being wise enough to find a non-bad one.  <\/p>\n<p>jerri is very wise.<\/p>\n<p>she and brendan are also going to be in denver when i go there to visit christine, and i am going to listen to what jerri has to say.  because she\u2019s very wise.<\/p>\n<p>practically sage-like, even.<\/p>\n<p>wiseness-wise, not spice-wise.<\/p>\n<p>she did make me some delicious macaroni and cheese one time, though.  or i think it was something more elaborate than that, it was some sort of macaroni and cheese&#8230;pie?  perhaps i\u2019m hallucinating the whole thing.  a lot of that went on back in LA.  <\/p>\n<p>i think today was REALLY the last warm day.  i thought that last week, or maybe a couple weeks ago, but i think today was the day.  <\/p>\n<p>this morning when i drove to work, the leaves were absolutely raining down from the trees.<\/p>\n<p>and last night, i didn\u2019t leave work till seven, and it was completely dark outside.<\/p>\n<p>time to stay in bed, under the covers, until there\u2019s some hope of some possible reason to get up.<\/p>\n<p>maybe in april.<\/p>\n<p>perhaps may.<\/p>\n<p>that is all for this moment.<\/p>\n<p>ok then,<\/p>\n<p>grace on wednesday night, and at least i get to go see jekyll &#038; hyde on sunday, something to look forward to, i\u2019ll definitely get out of bed by sunday afternoon anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>i keep tilting my computer at a funny angle, because i type while lying in bed, i have stressed my power cord. it\u2019s plugged in, but suddenly it says it\u2019s not plugged in anymore. this has been going on for a few weeks now, and i keep thinking OH MY GOD YET ANOTHER THING GOING [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-328","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/s6JLYy-because","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=328"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=328"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=328"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
