"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So when cat Orville, named after the famous aviator Orville Wright, was run over by a car, his artist owner decided to turn him into a permanent piece of artwork as the ultimate tribute by transforming him into a flying helicopter.

mac wants a full sized bed.

We are leaning toward this, so he still has an extra bed for sleepovers and cousin visits.

I actually think the eggs get fluffier with regular sugar, if you're beating it by hand. (Which I do because I don't have a dishwasher)

I - what?

If you ever do need castor sugar for something just whir some regular sugar in the blender for 15 or 20 seconds.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

But then you have to clean the blender!

It's sugar! Give it a swipe with a paper towel and you're good.

Also - there were two pie cakes this weekend? I saw and intend to make the apple one. What did I miss?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I am about to have a hot apple sauce sundae. We have Blue Bunny caramel toffee crunch ice cream. I diced up several apples which need to be used up immediately, put in pan with a bit of water, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have an interview for a job I don't really want tomorrow, which means I have to figure out what interview clothes fit.

9 things up on ebay. 1 more listing and I will be have done all that I planned to on that front. But first, I need to eat.

All that is really left to do today is get to Target, sew on the dog bed cover, and do more clearing out in mac's room.

Target now with a trip for food. then mac's room, then sew on teh dog bed while watching tv after dark. That is my plan.

Once again, my bedroom did not get any work done over a long weekend. oh well - I'll take that we at least got something done.

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

I have an interview for a job I don't really want tomorrow, which means I have to figure out what interview clothes fit.

Or...you don't.

OH GOD. Ortho has put me in the work-through-the-pain phase of recovery, so the ACE bandage is off and I'm trying to cane it through the office without even a brace. GOOD GOD this hurts. If I don't whine some, I will explode. But I do have to exercise the ligaments. He showed me a floating bone chip, but those don't hurt. The rest of the healing looks fine, but he's rating the ligament injury as severe, whereas the break was minor. So, oh. I'm still telling strangers "broken" though. It's just faster.

I tend to get offers when I go on interviews for jobs I don't want. Maybe giving no fucks makes me a better interviewer?
