Kitties are fine. My parents are already being too close despite having spent the last 30 hours WAY TOO CLOSE. Thank god the organizer sat me with him the first leg, even though it was the shortest. It gave me a good start.
Saffron: He's my husband. Mal: Well, who in the damn galaxy ain't?
'Trash'
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That all sounds incredible, sarameg! Welcome home.
I hope the rest of your trip home is easy, Dana.

"Thankyou for your letter concerning pets in my apartment. I understand that having dogs in the apartment is a violation of the agreement due to the comfort and wellbeing of my neighbours and I am currently soundproofing my apartment with egg cartons as I realise my dogs can cause quite a bit of noise. Especially during feeding time when I release live rabbits."

I only really lost it with them one day, and while I could have handled it a lot better, they bear part of the burden. But most of the time I found ways to deal. If only they'd understand when I tell them to stop pulling the tiger's tail (using that expression or just "you are making me really unhappy") I MEAN IT.
But that's all the whine I really have.
I climbed to the Tiger's Nest, some 2K feet UP from the start of the trail: [link] Halfway, sweaty me: [link]

That's all for tonight. Just to whet.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Gorgeous!
