Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I've only had the one cat, but it was so hard -- and then one day I knew it was time. I'm not sure how, but I'm still sure I was right. I'm sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's only the second week of football season, and I already feel like my heart can't take it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I was just coming in here to make sure you were okay, Dana. Jeez.

I'm actually shocked they won. Neither team really deserved to.

Right? But I'll take it.

Now I need to try to recover from that in time for Breaking Bad to stress me out...

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry Scrappy. That's a hard call to make.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Finally got back from my folk's place. I've been having mild anxiety the entire time I was away as to whether my cats would be alive when I got home (unfounded) or if they'd pull a hissy on me and note that I'm home, and then snub me for a few days as punishment. Nope, both in the house the second I walked in the door, Nunya with wide eyes and demanding love like never before, and Ply kind of steadfastly demanding bridge toll payments every time I walked past her, so normal there. My goodness, I owe so much backpay in scritchies, it's ridiculous. They also apparently went on a hunger strike while I was gone, as there's so much food left in their dishes. I feel like I need to take one more vacation day to make it up to them.

Went to the gun range with my dad and lil'bro. My dad is a scary shot. Center mass and tight groupings. I mean, he practices with his bow, but we were using a .45, 9 mil, and a 22, the first two have major kickback. The 22 kinda sucked, too small in the hand and the bullets are so small I couldn't see where the heck I hit the target. If I had the money, I think I'd totally love hitting the range as a hobby. Which is weird since I never really loved firing an M-16 for work (but that might have been the bs trappings surrounding it).

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I did do the force fed once, because there was a chance of full recovery. not what happened. I would stay away from that option.

Swouncing

Skipping and sadly ignoring ongoing conversations, in order to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Nora Deirdre's birthday.

Happy birthday, Nora! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy birthday, Nora!
