Our wings are not tired.

It is so good to hear you have that extended support system, Jesse.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

OK, I give up on Caribbean food for now. Too many things that either require ingredients I can't get or have to be cooked in the oven.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Love that, Jesse.

Ditto, Jesse.

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

Caribs (us, not the Indians) use ovens 12 months of the year. I've never quite understood "light summer food". I'd have hot breakfast lunch and dinner all year round in the tropics if I could.

Thank you, Amy. No reason I needed that info...

And Jesse, that dessert thing is ADORABLE.

I'm fine with eating hot food, or cooking it on the stove. It's just that my air conditioner is really not that strong, and turning on the oven raises the temperature of the whole apartment. I'll use the oven if it's a cool-ish day when I can open the windows and turn on the fans and be reasonably comfortable, but it doesn't look like we're going to have any of those days for a while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I thought you guys would appreciate that.

My apartment is super hot. It's barely cool now, and it's 60 degrees out and I've had all the windows open all day.

This morning after he'd eaten his fill and I'd completed my walk, the one friendly alley cat (I shall name him Thomas O'Malley) hopped up on the steps next to me and meowed until I started petting him. One of the restaurant guys on my block says he's been living in the alley since he was a kitten, but he was clearly socialized with people early on if he wants affection as well as food/water.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Friend of ours from Boston was in town visiting people and organized(sort of) a dinner mission tonight. He's staying with us through tomorrow.

Uh-oh. One of these days, Mister O'Malley'll follow you inside....

Jesse, do you have a fan you could put in one window to draw air through? That's how I cool things off when it gets cool enough at some point in the day. Leaving it in last night, it was actually chilly in my house in the morning.

ION, I found Pumpkin's chip in one of her intense cuddling sessions. I figure Loki's is buried under fat...
