Happies to everyone!
I have a new favorite website -- iwantoneofthose.com. It's in the UK, so I'm in no danger of ordering anything off of it, but omgsobrowsable!
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthday, sj!
Happy anniversary, Beverly and DH!
Good lord, Raquel. People? A little crazy.
These are the days I really really wish I had a porch. Or a yard, or similar. It is BEAUTIFUL outside, but I'm feeling very very lazy. I should be outside, but the whole getting ready and going somewhere thing just seems like Too Much right now. Hmph.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Morning all!
I have a balconey, that I really need to use, but right now I have no furniture for it, plus I can't let the cats out on it, and it drives them screeching nuts when I go out there without them.
I think I need to go get pancakes or maybe Hobee's blueberry coffee cake.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I am wearing red jeans that end just two inches above my anklebone, which makes them non-capris.
Nope, not capris, just pants that don't fit. :)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have no cats to complain, but also no balcony furniture. I just pull back the curtain and open the balcony door and pretend, while I stay indoors.
I'm wearing black loose cotton pants, a black baby tee and Skechers shoes. Krav stuff.
I can't leave until this game is done. I'd really like to last out this set, but that's a dangerous gamble.

This is what I do.
I am wearing pjs. I need to do something about that before I go to Hobee's.

That would be enough. My windows are open, but still. What to do, what to do.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I so need one of these."...languish for hours in self-indulgent bliss, your book held for you, a glass of wine sitting safely in the glass holder, lit by the warm glow of a candle...you may never have to leave the bath again." Here is the exact one I have. It's nice.
My tub in my apartment now is right on top of concrete, so it tends to be really cold.My tub will totally suck the heat up until it heated (cast iron), so I fill it once will straight hot water which fills it maybe a third or a half, let the water heater go to work and then fill it the rest of the way. It takes much longer than a standard filling of a tub, but it stays hot longer. Might that help heat up the concrete?
Herbs are wonderful.Bev wrote herbal porn. Thanks. And it's her anniversary too. Happy Anniversary, Bev and DH!
I didn't know patchouli was a single plant!I had one of those! It got dead in the Great Raining of Six Months Straight that we had here.
People, if you are travelling with someone over the age of 18 and they decide they don't want to keep travelling with you, do not call the American Embassy and ask to have them "taken into custody." That's called kidnapping.Oh no, Racquel... I hope everything works out.
and he's wavering on car racing, but he does seem to be interested in most popular sports where you can see the players (as opposed to, say, the cars) even if he doesn't like them -- he's so interested in the meta of sports, the commonality of needing, trying, failing and winning.You *totally* get this with racing. Hrmpphhh!
I have a new favorite website -- iwantoneofthose.com.Jessica is in my brain. That was the first place I found my bath caddy to link to. About twenty minutes before I read her post. So browsable...
Happy Birthday, sj!

Up with the sun
Timelies, happy birthday to Frank and sj, and happy anniversary to BeVERley.
I am wearing a black t-shirt and jeans and waiting to go meet P.'s sister and nephew for a picnic at Iwo Jima. We also visited with P.'s family yesterday, so I figure I'm racking up many many in-law points.
(Also, Sheryl, I'm impressed you go to the mall every year for fireworks. I did it once when I was 19 and damn near had a panic attack trying to get back on the train to go home. It was a major NEVER AGAIN for me, and I'm always amazed that people go back. )

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Thanks for all the happy wishes. As I said elsewhere, we're credits to our upbringing for not killing each other for this long. There may be revelry, even perhaps a bit of ribaldry. There will, however, be NO hang-gliding. Or if there is, it will not involve this short little woman whose major phobia is having her feet off a solid surface. Climb anything, yeah? dangle in space, nsm.
Go you on the red not!capris, Theo. I want pictures, they sound fabu.
BeVERly
Heh. Know me long time, don'cha?
Birthday happies to sj!
