I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

Man, somehow I actually pulled my work day out of a tail spin of Do Not Want and got some shit done. Was it all the shit I needed to do? No,it was not. Nor do I care. I am going to buy some vinho verde and Not Care all night.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Speaking whiskey, we had our wine tasting last Friday and it was sold out and hugely popular amongst the neighbors (although I'm still worried about the couple that brought their baby in the carriage and then left the carriage (covered up, so I couldn't tell if the baby was still inside) abandoned for the better of an hour in a corner of the house.

So now we're planning a whiskey tasting, and I can see that ending rather very quickly with many inebriated adults. I joked at our first successful wine tasting that we ought to change our mission to "engage, enrich, and inebriate" and it seems to be a successful source of income as well as a great friend-raiser! Alcohol and adults, who knew?

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

It's further from the train & downtown area than we'd like, but it's within easy walking distance of an adorable cafe, and OMG so much space!! Corner lot! Level yard! That TUB! A *breakfast room*.

It remains to be seen what "tasteful updates" really means - I'm all about historical details but I'm also all about plugging in lots of electronics. (I'm also not really loving the idea of one full bathroom for all four of us. But if the bathroom is really as big as the pictures make it look...)

Oh my goodness, that is a super pretty house. It has many details I adore. And a great address.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

How did we get to the point that so many people are convinced that the federal government is planning to declare martial law, confiscate the 300 million plus guns in this country, impose Sharia law and dump toxic chemicals on us?

Paranoia?

I hate to admit it, but I think there's a not-small minority of the population who are currently armed to the teeth and itching to start a civil war so they can kill all the judgmental assholes out there (like me) who think they are reactionary nutjobs. Which, for the record, makes me paranoid too.

OK, sorry for the rant above.

I wanted to let folks know that Folly died this afternoon. It was all very peaceful. Kids are dealing with it well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, I'm sorry, Burrell. I know it was time, but it's still hard.
