Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

An enormous partial roach came back to my apartment with me from doing my laundry. At least it was definitely dead, but I hate the idea that there are more in the building.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I refuse to believe in the pink fairy armadillo since the caption didn't say where they exist. Also... deer shouldn't have fangs.

Fanged deer! I was trying to remember that when a friend confessed that she totally thought the jackalope was real the whole time she lived in NM.

Well, I got an hour-long run in this morning, and only walked a little bit of the steepest hill. This is certainly one advantage of unemployment.

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

Also... deer shouldn't have fangs.

And why the hell do you call a fanged deer "tufted"--the fuck?? FANGED. That's your Lesser Fanged Deer, not some stupid tuft thing.

Oh, and did y'all know that Girl Meets World (yes, that World, and it's their Girl) has been picked up for a full season by Disney? We all old, man.

And, shit, I wore the wrong outfit for a lidocaine patch, plus I forgot my pocket knife. This will be interesting.

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

The pink fairy armadillo got a mention in the first season of QI. Stephen Fry asked for the difference between a pink fairy and a green fairy (substantial).

Deer, originally, didn't have antlers; the fanged deer are closer to their basal form.

The raccoon dog, incidentally, has large litters (up to 15 or so), which is a problem as (unusually for canids) they can't regurgitate. Once the pups are on solids, everything needs to be carried back to them in mouth-sized portions. Due to the demanding job of parenting, they're monogamous and the male is an active parent.
