It’s hard to think deep thoughts at lunch when my morning has been filled with phrases like “potentially deleterious non-Darcy flow effects.”
And I’m not smart (blush). I’m a smart-aleck. There’s a small but apparently significant difference between genius and impudence.

I think I liked yesterday better… so long as I can keep the “mom” part, I’ll take Queen any day.
