Swouncing

Skipping oh-yes-yet-again, because according to t he Buffista Calendar, today is Vortex's birthday.

Happy birthday, Vortex! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Also, exactly 10 years ago, took place the first Buffista F2F. I can't believe it's been a decade ago.

[Edit: Remember that little avatar we sent all around the globe and took pictures with it and then shipped it over to join the F2F as our replacement? Ten years ago. Wow. Oh, I miss posting with you guys.]

Happy Birthday, Vortex!

Kidney ~ma, Morgana.

Yesterday the thermometer I was using on my daughter was reading 105 degrees, and she was miserable. Today she woke up and asked what we were going to do today because, "you didn't take me to the park yesterday."

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

There was a survey a few years back that looked into happiness. It found that on average, people hit a nadir of personal happiness around their mid-40s. From there, as they get older, they also get happier. People in their 60s are, on average, happier than people in their 20s.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Birthday Happies, Vortex!

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

I think my personal nadir was around the age of 13. Everything has gone up since then except for a tight 6 months around age 17.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Vortex!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My 20s weren't terrible by any stretch, but I never really felt comfortable in my own skin until I turned 30 and was able to lose a lot of the expectations of how people in their 20s are supposed to act. For people who are really good at the things 25 year-olds are supposed to enjoy, those years probably are the best years of their lives. For the rest of us, not so much.

(Growing up, my mother used to say I was born with a mental age of 47. I just never quite got the hang of being young.)

Art Crawl!!!

Happy Birthday, Vortex!

Also: loved the cat expose.

And the Emmett story.

And the Loki riffing.

ETA: I managed to break my second Kindle fire. . . or possibly it was a lemon. I don't know. Sigh. I have books that I want to read and I need my device to work.
