I very nearly bought this the other day [link] (Jilli font) as the new dog bed.

(Actually, I still might. The one at the store was inflatable. If it's just a cover, I could put foam or something inside and make it work.)

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

What's the thingy in that country that swarms along the ground and leaves behind no living thing?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Alright, David, now can you find that thing I left somewhere?

I can't. Army ants got it.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

The daffodils and forsythia are the first things blooming here, and all the bright yellows are making me happy. There's an intersection I drive through almost every day that's planted with thousands of daffodils on all four sides, and driving through it makes me smile. I can't wait for the tulips to come up-- there's a hotel in Woodley Park near my old job that's a riot of color every April and May.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Nothing is blooming here because we got 8 fresh inches of snow! WTF?

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

We had snow today, and thunder hail yesterday.

Purple crocuses are my sure sign. In my old commute, there was a triangle of 'em. Now, I go by my hood. We have crocii!

I'm zone 6 and the snowdrops started two weeks ago, the Witchhazels have been blooming for a month or so, Winter Aconite, crocus, and just this week Glory of the Snow. There's a very cool Japanese tulip that has buds getting ready to pop in a week or two. Oh, and the Apricot and the Winter Jasmine and Winter Honeysuckle (which smells divine).
