I would hate to lose the (year round sheddy, but it smells nice!) linden out front. It really makes my east-facing bedroom lovely in the summer. It is old and not looking as good as in years past, which worries me. If it dies, I'd seriously look at paying $$ for more than a sapling to replace it (though that's complicated- tree is and is on city property. And the sewer and water lines go under there, so. Complicated.)

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Congratulations, One True Doctor Esse!
Barbara Walter's interview with the woman Don Sterling was talking to during the infamous racist rant was the strangest interview I've seen that did not involve Johnny Depp.
yay Debetesse!
Yay Debet. That's a lot of work and time your put in. Wonderful.
Just got in from standing in our backyard in my pajamas, helping Jason wash the skunk off of one of our dogs. We all three got soaked. Chet, who's a big disheveled labradoodle, broke free of his collar on his evening walk and ran like a bat out of hell into a side yard of a house down the street. Before Jason could get to him, he ran back out of the shadows and threw himself down on the grass and began rubbing his face in the grass. Poor guy. he was very good during his unexpected nighttime bath. That'll teach him to mess with skunks--except he's a dog, so, you know, it won't at all. We don't think we got it all, so hopefully it's off to the groomer tomorrow.
I'm in nice dry jammies and am in bed.
It would be nice if Chet learned, but we know it doesn't work that way. I hope the aroma improves quickly.
Poor old Chet. And poor you guys, dealing with skunk!
Woke up early, so maybe I should get up and at em. Bleh.
I’m off to have breakfast with Jessica and ita.

Oh, nice!
Because Saturday morning is Daily Show/Colbert time, I'm thinking that I wish the character of Colbert hadn't gone on TDS to say he was leaving -- it would have been kind of amazing if the character had just slowly cracked up over time and left in a blaze of shame/glory.
