You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Dude, does mac have books from Walter the Farting Dog series?

(I swear, I managed to corrupt my entire department. Everyone is buying them for either their kids or grandkids this year, based off my stories of how I warped D. Even my boss, for his grandsons.)

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

there should be no inside possums in my world.

From what i've heard, Trudy would agree.

Well shit, that needs remedy. It may be past xmas at the rate I am going, unfortunately.

eta: I have alcohol onboard. After this week? Wooyah! Hence the editing to fix typos.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

the batmobile has lost its wheel and joker got away?

Not silver enough yet, but don't think I'm not waiting: [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My breath is bated too, amy.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

meara'ing:

You're talking about the bar cookie with layers of stuff including chocolate chips and coconut, right?

Yes! Graham cracker crust and chocolate chips and butterscotch chips and some kind of nut I think, and coconut and sweetened condensed milk and yum.

Not geeky! That's seriously really cool!

We're excited about it. That room is concrete slab floor, and I'm thinking I want to be able to stain or paint a design onto it. Only we thought it would be a kind of figure eight, but it won't be because the sun doesn't come into the house at all during the summer. Which is exactly how we'd planned it, but I didn't expect it to actually work! So it'll only be a three season calendar, but still cool.

What kind of bulbs did you end up with?

Dark (almost black) tulips & white daffodils from the hardware shop, blue irises and purple crocuses from the local nursery, and a bunch of muscari (grape hyacinth), four varieties all blue, and white peonies from your shop! So thanks so much for the rec. It'll be almost all the stuff from Van Engelen, with whom I was very impressed. They called to clarify an address detail, shipped right away, everything came in nice condition. The ground is still workable now, so I think we'll just barely make it. We'll see how they do.

We've also got the Russian sage in from last season, and we have a couple varieties of groundcover wildflowers to go underneath the bulbs. We'll need to add in the annuals to flesh it out, but I think we'll have something in the spring. So seriously, thanks, I'm so glad we were able to salvage what Breck's (ptui!) fouled up. I'll still have a flower garden for my first spring in this house!

I am in favor of possums staying nicely outside.

Also I'm in favor of silver foxes.
