Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It's pretty great. It's got a shorter handle, so it works better for my stature. I haven't taken the ribbon off, I just use it all bedecked.

I did trip over the curb getting off the bus and faceplanted in the snow, but it was mostly a soft landing.

My poor coworker is probably stranded on a bus somewhere, as he lives out in the suburbs.

I got stuck on the roof.

Of a bus?

Ice dam. The spout off the main roof is poorly engineered for when it is this cold and melting starts. It freezes up and the water backs up to a weak point in the mortar around the top on the spout and comes in through the bedroom ceiling. Only has happened a couple of times, but I am now thinking of getting a gutter heater coil to put up there. Getting on the roof is a PITA. Especially when the ladder blows down because the grabby things are no match for this wind.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I now feel like Liese's Christmas axe could solve everyone's problems.

Who gave me the roasted broccoli soup recipe? I just pulled some out of the freezer, and it's still so fucking good! Just what the doctor ordered.

Kat, call the local library and ask to speak with acquisitions. There might be a separate contract for libraries that have prevented them getting those.
