Okey! Casserole in the oven, dinner will be ready in twenty, and then I can have my pain medication. Rock.
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds delish, Allyson.

You should come over for dinner, Jesse!
I rented 30 Days of Night, took a hot bath, tidied up as best I could without hurting myself, took a conference call for work, and think it's PJ time.
Curl up with some dinner, a bad scary movie, and rest up so I can see about going into work tomorrow to try and salvage my week.
Oy.

Our wings are not tired.
One time I was making a spinach lasagne and forgot to boil the flat noodles. I just put them in like usual and the lasagne came out perfect. I guess the water from the spinach and ricotta was enough to cook the noodles? Ever since, I've not boiled noodles for lasagne.

I had my own yummy dinner -- buffalo chicken bits with celery and broccoli on the site.
I am seriously ready for bed now.

Just because I'm not ready to share space with too much sentience.
Don't read the cover article on animal intelligence in the latest National Geographic, then.

I am seriously ready for bed now.
I had a 10 minute nap earlier in which I dreamed I was...taking a nap because I was so tired.
Probably means I should go to bed at a reasonable hour, no?

Cute overload!
Hey Sparky, Saturday's doggy lama workshop is on cold weather care. I was worried it would be in the 60s and the topic would seem foolish. Instead, it will be rainy and gross.
I'd love to see you guys if you can make it, but seriously? I'm not expecting a big turnout if it's nasty.
In similar news, I have my first two paid doggy lama coaching sessions tomorrow! Plus, one of the adoption event coordinators has offered to recommend me to new pet people. I've helped with her own dog and she just wants me to make a donation to the Society for each new client.
This idea, I love.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
bonny, if you need a canine witness, just ask my Andy -- he says that rainy and gross is WAY more worrisome than cold weather.
(More seriously, I'm so happy to see the doggy lama thing taking off for you!)

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
So, (not that it isn't cute, but) do we think the elephant can actually paint, aka recreate its surroundings, or that it's learned a trick, like putting a hat on a human?
I read years ago about a zoo elephant with behavioral problems that was given paints as a sort of therapy. They thought she was just playing with the paints until firefighters responded to an alarm at the zoo, and several hours later she painted a long red area (like the fire engine) with little black streaks (like the firefighters' uniforms) arranged around it. It was crude, but pretty clear she understood that she was painting a representation of something she'd seen earlier.
