I'm not hot shit in a wineglass, more curried goat in a paper cup

Ah, to sleep until you wake up and then lie abed and stretch and yawn until you feel like getting up.  Is this not happiness?

But how can I eat all that french toast with blueberry syrup and two cups of tea and then feel like going back to sleep?  Eor says it's a gift. 

Memo to self: tapioca bread is not the best thing for french toast.  (Still, anything under blueberry syrup is good. ;))

I have received The MOST Beautifulest Chinese New Year Card EVER from bravecows!  And so has eor.  (Yes, we can both have THE most beautiful card, because our cards actually occupy the same space. :))  And I have a beautiful little red silk (I guess?  It feels like silk to me.) drawstring purse that has a shoulder-carry string which cleverly tucks inside it - just in time, too, because I'm killing my sequined elephant purse - and eor got a little scary face necklace which is very manly.  *nods*  (Although bravecows suggested that if he didn't want to wear it he could hang it up and tell it stories.)  Personally I think it will look great on eor. ;) 

I had wondered why fish were associated with CNY - apparently the word for 'fish' sounds similar to the word for 'extra' (extra in the sense of 'more than just enough').  I love puns. :)  I wonder if that's where Pratchett got the idea for the Borogravian phrase about the world being a great big fish?  Although he could just as well have drawn it from the world being likened to an oyster.  A language always has to have some concepts that just don't really translate.
