I think unicorns (and pegasuses) are magical creatures that do not poop.
Relatedly, I always wondered how the pushmi-pullyu pooped.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Okay people, STOP DYING. Right now. I decree from now on, immortality for everyone. Also no sickness or poverty, and everybody gets a house with a unicorn in the backyard.
I did get good news yesterday. The cancer diagnosis I mentioned (here or FB? Can't remember) is looking less dire after further testing. It's still going to be a rough rode, but the initial indications were that Things were Imminent. So that's huge.
(If I didn't mention here: not me. A very close family friend whose cancer diagnosis we learned on the Wednesday of ita week.)

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
My freezer has several pies' worth of blueberries that I picked last summer, waiting for me to pie them.
Not sure that they mail well, though. Sigh.
At least I can wish for (literal and/or figurative) sunshine for everyone.

I may have to seize the cat.
Love to all with losses and illnesses.
Things are moving in the direction of me getting the window-office. I'm oddly anxious about the whole thing. I think it's because right now, I'm in a suite with my graduate assistants, and I feel like once I'm in an office far from them, I won't see them anymore. They are, at this point, my only colleagues, so it will be very lonely never seeing them.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

MM, I'm so sorry.
brenda, that's great news.
Hugs for those that want or need them, and ~ma for everyone.
Most everyone knows my first name. (In fact, I should just ask a stompy to change my board name, because I don't think anyone thinks of me that way.) My last name is "even" spelled backwards. My last significant FB post was about hockey and beer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, good news, brenda.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm so sorry, MM.
I yam who I yam, here. Although I'm cagey about the last name everywhere. Whoever said their name was in low figures? Ours is...um, seven, on the continent. And H is paranoid about being "found". I'm like, and if "they" did "find" you? Then what? It's not like we're celebs, or famous for our achievements, or anything. Sweetie, I doubt anybody's *looking*, you know?
ETA: Brenda, that's really good news. Good to hear.

I had a minor breakdown in the car when I got home thinking about Hubby and Shadow and ita and everything. I am very tired of death.

Good news, brenda.
Hubby and ita would enjoy talking about weapons, I think.

Brenda, I'm glad there is some good news.
