I am sounding like Cardinal Egan at Midnight Mass, St Patrick's Cathedral 2004:Thanks to Home Protect,ADS and CET Emergency for sorting out my plumbing issues. @keefwilson
Washed and rinsed my hair, put on conditioner, loads of lather, rinsed again, hair seemed clean, more conditioner, more suds. Getting angry now. Myopically looked at the bottle: Shampoo all the time. At least I have the cleanest hair possibly ever.
@raymond_blanc@ArsenalFC@ManUtd My father could only admit that he had always secretly supported Man Utd when he met my husband, My three brothers all support Liverpool! This tweet might spontaneously combust!
@sparklyquark@MaxJLHardy My father sent us to swimming classes on a Saturday morning. Once we could swim 40 lengths of the swimming pool wearing clothes/pyjamas we were allowed to stop. We’re proficient swimmers.
One of my college professors used to say "anything worth doing is worth doing poorly." I didn't understand that for years because I didn't do anything poorly, I couldn't do anything poorly, I had to Do Everything Perfectly.
But brushing your teeth for 30 seconds is better than not brushing them at all when that 2 minutes seems exhausting. Doing ten minutes of yoga is better than 10 minutes of sitting when 30 minutes of cardio sounds impossible.
Changing my clothes is good when a whole shower is impossible. Standing on the porch for a few minutes is worth it after being in the house for three straight days because I don't have the energy to go anywhere.
Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly... because doing it poorly is better than not doing it.
Carl Sagan in his final year, on Charlie Rose: "We've arranged a society based on science and technology in which nobody understands anything about science and technology. This combustible mixture of ignorance and power sooner or later is going to blow up in our faces"
@RupertMyers That happened to me in an Italian restaurant on West Broadway in the 90 s. They hadn’t heard of an Espresso martini so they made my approximation of it and named it after me.
