Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Our wings are not tired.

Amy, did your new apartment come with microwave?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Just heard my neighbor casually tell his 7 yo foster kid "don't be an arsehole or you'll spend the day in the house".

My first reaction was shock, my second was "be assholes, kiddies, so you have to stop playing underneath my window!".

Because books.

We did move! And no, java, since this is a different apartment than the original one, we are microwaveless. But we also have zero counter and cabinet space, so we're looking at a really small one.

I HAVE TORN AWAY PARTS OF MY INTERIOR WALLS BECAUSE OF TERMITE DAMAGE FROM 2 YEARS AGO

Yikes.

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

My first errand turned out to be over extending. So I'm going to try zoning out for a while.

Watching Spider-Man it occurs to me that while I have nothing against the casting of Garfield, I would die a thousand little deaths at seeing Dylan O'Brien in the role.

Laura, you can NOT have a 21 year old

Part of the thing with being in this community for a dozen years or so is the whole watching each other's kids grow, marriages, career changes, and so forth. It's nice.

I promised Brendon a trip to New Orleans to celebrate his 21st. He is a big jazz fan and as a responsible mom I had to let him know that the jazz is best appreciated with cocktail in hand in a proper jazz club. So I expect that will happen this fall.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Laura, you can NOT have a 21 year old. Wasn't it just last week he was duct taping his brother's head?

Am I the only one thinking that there is really no age limit for a guy duct taping his brother's head?

His little brother could totally take him down now. Bobby has about an 80 pound weight advantage. Of the muscular variety.

But this time they would have to deal with the tape removal themselves.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Wasn't it just last week he was duct taping his brother's head?

As if a 21-year-old wouldn't do that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

My sister just informed me that my niece has her learner's permit. I am FREAKING OUT.

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

Lee, I just got up from a nap. I expect any yard time will actually be nap time as well, because I do have a hammock and I don't have a/c.
