If nothing else it settles the dust and cleans off the cars a little. We're getting steady light snow up here in Utah. It's probably going to go to ice by evening, but I don't think too many people have forgotten how to drive in this in a month. I hope.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.
Host ,'Why We Fight'
Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am completely made of fail today.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
You posted successfully. Hey, it's something, therefore you are not a complete fail. Just saying. (Hope things improve soon!)
ION- the "rain" has stopped. Sad.

This is little enough that it isn't even enough to clean the cars, it's more like just enough to make them wet enough that the new dust sticks even better.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
We seem to have just enough to leave those little trails through the dust so the car looks extra filthy. But given the drought, I'll take what I can get.
eta: filthy car x-post!

It has been pouring here for some time. Wish we could share.
ION, it was a wonderfully surprising and delightful evening yesterday. I had a Maria! Her flight was cancelled and she was stuck in my hood. She even got to see the treasures Suzi sent me since they were still out on my counter.
No doubt that surprise Buffista visits are a great way to improve ones day.
Also, the Buffista sprog are indeed beautiful and we are fortunate that they have good photographers close at hand.
There's more, but work calls.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Cutie boys, GC! And those photos are spectacular.

Folks who have dealt with chemo and radiation, can I ask a question for my friend with esophageal cancer?
He's gotten to the stage where he is feeling wrecked. He has sores in his mouth and feels awful.
I've made him a couple gallons of bone broth and am going to supply some big-around straws to perhaps bypass the painful part of eating.
I'm also giving him some coconut oil, hoping it is bland enough to give him rich calories with little upset.
His wife is doing the best she can to prepare 'white foods' but is running out of ideas.
What else might help?

Incidentally, folks who love coconut oil should hye thee to Costco. I bought the 54oz jar, which retails for $27, for $13 today. I was over the moon!
