Having now drunk all the sparkling water in the entire universe, I'm off to the hardware store to get screens for the windows (went to do this earlier but got distracted by the garden dept.; at least our back porch is now decorated with plants that are both pretty and, at least purportedly, mosquito-repelling). Over the next week, tackling the closets and the living room ceiling. This house is gonna look pretty if I have to destroy everything in it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
It also depends on if people took down wallpaper before putting up more. The house I grew up in had about 10 layers in every room, and it took years to take it all down. The ceiling in my grandpas bedroom still has wallpaper because when we tried to take it down, the curling started to come down with it!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I know the family put up what's in there now (35 years ago), so my mother or aunt should be able to tell me something about what's underneath.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
We found about five layers of wallpaper in the bathroom of my Grandmother's house. The bottom layer had big fishies on it and my own name written in careful 1st-grade all-caps print. I should have taken a photo of it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
They just cancelled our flight back to DC. Shit.

You guys, I am so trashy right now. I have literally had Fritos and Lime-A-Rita for dinner.

Does anyone know exactly how a properly functioning thyroid keeps things like hair and eye lashes properly anchored?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I think it's the hormones? I never really got an adequate answer, but I know that when my Synthroid levels are low, my hair falls out significantly.

Our wings are not tired.

It's time to help Ginger kick some cancer ass. And also some mice ass. And get a new dishwasher if she wants it. And also treats for Mr. Peabody. Let's spread it all over the internet and help one of our own who has never asked for help. Even if you can't help right now, could you please share the page on your own Facebook? Thank you!
(I asked and received Ginger's permission to set this up. I have co-conspirators who can out themselves if they wanna.)

I kind of miss having eyelashes, but not enough to keep going back to the clinic for lab work every three months.
