My uncle is coming to visit in late July! He's going to a motorcycle rally in the Catskills, then going to wind his way down to the Carolinas, hitting various nieces and nephews on the way, then back to Colorado. He'll be the first of my family other than parents to see the new place. I'm plotting us so many adventures!

And I probably should put the ac in that bedroom for his visit. He IS motorcycling almost the whole US this summer, but he's also 70+.

Batman's cowl is all one piece? His mask and cape are connected?

Aren't they? I thought they were. I am far from the Batman expert, though.

That seems impractical.

It DOES seem impractical. But I think it might be the case. Not totally sure.

Now I'm wondering what a practical cape would look like. (Yes, I have Edna Mode stuck on repeat in my head.)

NO capes!

Well, because I do think it is the case, I had to do this with the idea stuck in my head. Steph.

Dude. That is AWESOME. (Also, Tim wants to know if that's her golden lasso. I said I don't think the golden lasso is that long. He said it's magic and can therefore be as long as it needs to be. I told him that was non-canonical.)

Thanks! If I had the energy to make it glow (oh, I should really go back and put glowy marks on, shouldn't I?) it would totally be her magic lasso.

I need to admit I'm not so sure things are good with Mister Kitty. He's not coma-ing or anything, but he's not back to his old self. And I'm not exactly sure if he's happy. I need to call the vet tomorrow (just an update) but I also need to think. I'm willing to give it time, I've got another appt on the 7th. But he's not howling up on my bed at regular intervals. His, um, bathroom habits mean his feet get washed daily and he hates that.

His purr isn't as loud.

If this doesn't turn around...

And then sometimes, he wraps around my arm. Feh.
