I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

eta: I saw somewhere they revised to a 9.0. Need to go look again. In the meantime...

Well, yeah. Just sort of marveling at how we can do our best and Japan clearly has, but...nature can win.

I have a wet, demoralized cat. Mister Kitty bath time. It's pathetic. Unlike Devi, who when she fell in the tub got distracted by Floating!Tail! and was fine and having fun until she got out, MK just...gives up. I have him wrapped like a baby in a towel. He's not even trying to fight me. Just gave one mournful yowl when I put him in the sink. So pathetic.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, poor MK. You will dry, I promise.

He's wrapped back up. He looks so awful wet. He's all bones. Please turn off the sound.

Oh, unhappy. He doesn't look as thin as I thought though. He looks very displeased though. Well, he'll dry and dry is happier.

And he's kinda liking the wrapped up and cuddling. Soon, blow dryer! (Uh, he likes it.)

Poor Mister Kitty!

I have 65 comments to write before I fall asleep Sunday night, and we LOSE A FRIGGIN HOUR this weekend. So unfair.

Our wings are not tired.

Pix, I wish you could farm out your work to us!

Cass, yes, to everything you've said about Japan's engineering, preparedness, and infrastructure. Like Julia Sweeney says, "and then God says "ha!"

Just had a protest poop.

Pretty much sums up my week, no?

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