Ozymandias jeans

I tore through the upper leg of my jeans while biking. My thighs are just so vigorous and powerful that no pants can contain them. A crotch-proximal patch attracts awkward attention, so I hereby lay to rest another pair of jeans, slain by the sheer muscle (and surrounding fat) of my legs.

I am Lila, Destroyer of Jeans;
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!

(Apologies to Percy Bysshe Shelley.)

This post's theme word: eschatology, "the part of theology concerned with death, judgement, and the final destiny of the soul and of humankind."

Chocolate week

"Did you know that the third week in March is chocolate week?" alerts an email from Finale. Consider yourself alerted. It seems strange to me that a week during Lent would be "chocolate week," given the common perception of chocolate as an indulgence.


This week's theme word: ort, "a scrap of food left over after a meal."
