What's amazing about the photobomb is that the Queen is smiling, which you pretty much never see. We must have been very amused, indeed.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

I'm having a maintenance guy fix my garbage disposal, which jammed up Tuesday night when I wasn't quick enough on the switch after hearing it make a loud grinding noise. Turns out my cats had used it as the goal for a game of soccer with a Bic lighter as the ball; I was only able to fish out the plastic part.
In completely unrelated news, the vet just called to tell me Jackson is recovering nicely after being neutered this morning.

That's a little harsh for kicking around a lighter. But glad he's doing well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG those cookies sound amazing, ita.
I'm not a big cherry fan, but I think they would be even better with them than cranberries.
Pix, is there a patron saint of dogs? I think a candle needs lighting, or something. I light a virtual one for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Heh to Matt.
I get really confused when I hear about losing glasses, because mine are always on my face!
Now that I carry around three different pairs (regular, computer, sun - I don't necessarily need all three with me all the time, but often enough) all the time I worry about losing glasses CONSTANTLY

I have discovered unfuckyourhabitat. Not as precious as the Flylady, constant reiteration of "take it in chunks, just get up and do it, it can be done."
I need to focus on "Take the trash out." I can put it in the bag, but getting it to the can outside seems to inspire the universe to slap me with "don't wanna."

Oh, and in the interests of cutting costs, I'm planning on cutting the landline, now that no one's home all day most of the week. Has anyone done that? What were the downsides, if any?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yeah, I cut my landline about nine or ten years ago. (i've lived by myself all that time.) Can't think of any downsides off the top of my head.

Everybody does that sort of thing, Tom. I left my regular glasses at home last week, which wouldn't have been a problem, except I was out after dark and had to drive home wearing my prescription sunglasses. That was fun!
I have so been there.
Sorry it's been a rough 24 hours, Tom. Hugs.

Our wings are not tired.
I've been without a landline for many years. My cell is now the number that I had for decades as a landline.
