this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I feel strongly that since the bathroom is the room where I get clean, it should by all logical rights also clean itself.

ESPECIALLY the bathtub/shower. I mean, the dirt goes DOWN THE DRAIN!

Neil Armstrong has died.

I had no idea until I read the news that he lived in the Cincinnati area. How about that.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

They say he died as a result of complications of heart surgery from 3 weeks ago.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Armstrong's family said, "For those who may ask what they can do to honor Neil, we have a simple request: Honor his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww. And yeah, man, I can do that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's great.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I got a bunch of stuff done today, but nobody had any eggs. Not the kitchen lady, not the farmers market.

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

I slept all day. Like, woke up long enough to eat breakfast, then fell back asleep. Woke up long enough to eat lunch, fell back asleep. Woke up again at 4 PM and realized that I hadn't done any of the stuff I needed to do today.

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

I have nothing I need to do today. I'd love to sleep.

I'm about to run out of Rooibos Tropica from Teavana. I like Rooibos in general, and I find this blend to be quite delish with most baked goods. It's my backup tea to the dragon jasmine phoenix pearls (apparently they blend well too). Is anyone savvy enough about Adagio or Upton or any other good teac ompany blends to recommend something similar, or should I go back to the the extortioners of tea for my re-up hit?

Art Crawl!!!

Hello strangers!

It's taken me forever to catch up in natter.

So happy that msbelle found a nanny.

Just watched the King's Bishop. Anyone else see it?

The horse that won just ran and ROMPED in a stakes race 3 days ago. Wow.

Also, NYT tells me that Neil Armstrong has died. Sad. But he was 82.

Also: went on a yarn crawl this morning: I touched vicuna fiber! And got to try a "pocket wheel". It was fun.
