Thanks for reminding me, -t. That was an amazing post, Ginger. Thank you for expressing it so eloquently.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Sorry to hear about StY's cat. I'm sure he had about two more (and better) years than he would have otherwise.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm sorry about StY's tuxedo kitty, too. Sometimes you never know why, but he was surely better off and happier in a warm safe loving home for the years he had. (And really, using the freezer was a perfectly reasonable thing to do, under the circumstances.)

Awww, i'm sorry Theo, and Bev. Losing pets is so hard.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aw, cats.

I don't know why, but cats make me sadder than dogs when it's their time to go. Probably because I'm a cat person.
I used to do the two clock thing when I was in the Navy. One clock next to me and one across the room set 15 minutes apart. It worked for most of my career; I never got written up!

Aw, kitties, no.
I have an alarm clock that I can reach from bed, an alarm on my phone that is across the room, and a FitBit alarm, but none of this saved me today. Getting the fail in early this week. It's fine.
I'm researching apartments in between meetings. I hope to get more info on timing later today.

My alarm is the radio, and I let it run so my brain can engage gears and come awake. If it was something I turned off, I'm sure I'd just slip back asleep. But the morning DJ reminds me that the day is running, and if I'm still laying there when the news guy comes on, I know I'm in trouble.

Free lunch tomorrow, yay.
That looks sarcastic. It's a sincere yay, I have not been thorough in my menu planning this week and can use the extra meal to take up the slack. But not super enthusiastic and meriting an exclamation point, as it will be pizza (that I will only eat the toppings off of) and salad, which is perfectly fine but not, you know, exclamatory.

-t, did you see this thing about sarcasm on the internets?? [link]
