I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

We always called them "johnny jump ups"!

OK, knew they were a common variety, just couldn't remember what. I don't think I planted them last year (though I like them a lot) but can't be sure.

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

I allow them to every day, but generally hang my towel(s) on the shower rod for re-use if it's just a 2 or 3 day stay.

I never allow them in every day. Maybe every 2 days, if I am staying by myself.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I make my own bed at hotels, only because I'm embarrassed at the state of the blankets and pillows from how much I toss and turn while sleeping.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's the name I know, Sophia. I think I also learned viola, but johnny-jump-up is what I use.

I don't think I understand the hotel question. How do you stop housekeeping from coming in?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

And thank you for identifying them, Calli.

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

I love getting into a properly made bed every night, so I reuse towels but let housekeeping make the beds.

Our wings are not tired

I have them in every day. When I'm working on cruise ships I love the fact that they are in 2 or three times a day. It's so nice to have my whole room turned down for me when I get back to it at night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I love a clean room and made bed, although I definitely try to remember to not get new sheets and towels every day.
