Art Crawl!!!

ita - I heard it was an interview with one of NPR's regular tv guys talking about tropes in Soap Operas and then moving from there to TV Tropes and a discussion of that website and the founder.

Trust my rage

Any link yet?

I feel like I should be hiding all my sensitive stuff. Or changing my screen name.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Here is a link to an article that mentions us as well as the NPR piece. link

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

It amuses me to think of the people at, say, work who might listen to the piece and not know they're talking about duhduhDUHN where I hang out.

Small amusements...

It's definitely an iris, Barb. Maybe iris tectorum?

Iris do have rhizomes like ginger. I don't know why I never thought of that before. Iris rhizomes should be just barely covered.

ita and burrell, I have nail polish for you! And the round robin box arrived but with a bottle broken (which I'll try to clean up before I forward everything to liese).

Today's been a Day. We had a haircut (me and Noah at the same barber shop -- $40 for both of us), went to Trader Joes, went to the library, bought two pairs of shoes for Noah (one is blue suede!) and had sandwiches at the Pasadena Sandwich Company. Naptime now and polish clean up for me.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Now I'm all nostalgic for my grandmother's irises. She planted several beds at my parents' old house, including some blue-white irises like these that were the best-smelling flowers I've ever been around.

Do not like mentions and links. Nefarious sources.

We have been out of the house since 10. Am tired. Want a nap, will not get, may whine.
