Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Oh, and aurelia, our local professional theatre has actually cancelled a show and is replacing it with dance and performance groups. I have no idea what that means for the in-house staff. Rochester is a hard market for theatre because it seems to be filled with way more people who want to perform than people who care about seeing performances. And the professional theatre looks to NYC to fill most acting and design slots, although it is possible to get work there as a local overhire. Something tells me no more overhire, though.

Wait, it's Thursday. Shit. I spent all day thinking it was Weds. The days are blurring together.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I somehow accidentally blocked megan walker-- how do I unbla=ock her?

At the top of her post, there should be an "unblock" link.

Could someone tell the kitten not to hang out in the litterbox??! I think I need to get him a cat house.

Punishingly Intricate

I'm all caught up on Friday Night Lights.

I'm working my way through Season 1 right now! So good!!! Even though I have to fast forward through some of the straight up football game shots. I have been bugging my dad so hard to watch it since it started. He played football in small town Texas. His dad was a high school football coach & principal. He would love it.

Or drive out to Frederick. That's what I was doing when I had a close encounter with a deer at 70+mph.

Stupid having a cute niece out there!!! I have to go out there Sunday. It's not really deer season though. I'm just glad I don't have to drive back and forth to Columbia every day. Fall & Spring you'd see dead deer on the offramps practically every day. I've seen deer here in the city, too, actually. And foxes and hawks. Very exciting.

If you think hitting a deer is bad... hit a moose. They weigh a whole lot more, AND they're so tall that they'll go through your windshield.

Plus, in their hearts they don't believe cars can hurt them. There were no cars around during the last Ice Age, so they haven't caught up in evolutionary terms yet....

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

Heavy rain for LA. Kind of comforting.

lisah, though I haven't seen them recently, there are the redshouldered hawks that nest in the ravine behind my work. Back when there was a parking lot south of us, I came up the steps to be halted by one of them with a squirrel he'd just caught, perched on the top landing with his wings spread . We had to wait until he'd hopped away from the landing far enough he could take off. And you can here their screes INSIDE the building . It's really cool.

I've got foxes around me. Hell, I probably have bears, since the railway is a conduit they use to get into town.
