OK, that's an ewww indeed. Except that since many animals regularly shed their skin anyway, it makes sense that it would be a way of nourishing the young, except that the intermediary step of actually shedding it doesn't happen.
Nature sucks, sometimes.
I'm not going to work today. But I am driving about 6 hours or so.
::sigh::
morning. cooler today, but still lovely. I had a not so crowded commute, and then a lovely walk to work. YAY SPRING!
unsurprisingly, I am not so interested in actually working.
Happy Birthday, Sheryl!
Belated Happy Birthday, ND!
There is this odd yellowish glow coming from the other room, and peeping around the edges of all of my window shades. I'm not sure what it is, but it makes me want to go outside and investigate.
Perkins! You have the ORB!
My ears were so solidly blocked that I didn't hear my alarm go off. This is the first time I overslept in forever.
Not
that
much, because I'll still be leaving around the same time, but it's annoying. I have to get them unblocked, stat.
I had gefilte fish for the first time the other night, and I don't get why people think it's so nasty.
Look it up on wikipedia. The image there is nasty. Like something you'd expect the cat to hack up. (I had to look it up because I didn't know what exactly it was. Conclusion: ground up fish mush. Ewwww.)
It's easier for me to get up promptly if I know I can go back to bed. Sadly, there is this thing called work.
Perkins! You have the ORB!
That's a good thing, right? YAY!
In less good news, I woke up at 4:30 in really really bad sinus and neck pain, and took a claratin D and my last 3 advil to get rid of it. It worked, but now the pain is starting to come back. I hope it holds off until I get to the office.
In critter news, EWWWW. Whitefonted:
Interestingly enough, considering some of my parenting experience, this doesn't surprise me in the slightest that Nature would create this arrangement.

It is MUCH better without the gross jelly stuff. Go to a good deli, and get it plain. And then eat it with horseradish. MMMMMM.
