Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Bedbugs?

I don't think so, but I'll investigate. My first three were tiny tiny ticks that I found on my thighs and ankles. The downside of living surrounded by woods and cats who go in and out.

Good luck with the mystery interview, ita!

Oh, sweet Adderall XR, how I have missed you.

I think it's going to be time to go to bed before it cools off enough for my to do yardwork today. There's not a tin left to do, but digging up the one clump is not going to be easy, so it'll have to wait until I have more leisure time to address it.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I think there's some stuff you can put on the back of your neck once a month to prevent that.

Wait, that's dogs. How is it we have to keep putting on bugspray like chumps? Who's got the opposable thumbs in this relationship anyway?

Right? I want something to dab on the back of my neck, and I promise not to lick it off.

I have met people who put Advantage (maybe Frontline, it was a while back) on their heads and swear it works to keep ticks off.

The Gaza situation, since I am not a parent, is how I'm beginning to understand why mothers say "I don't *care* who started it. Stop it."

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I'd love to do that with Advantage or Frontline but am afraid.

Grace has another doc appointment tomorrow at UCLA. This is her 4th doc appointment of the week. AND she will have surgery next Tuesday which will be her 5th surgery since we started summer vacation. (Also, another fun fact, we drove 4200+ travel miles - vs. commuting miles or appointment miles -- this month).

I am sooper tired right now.

My friend K is watching Sex in the Wild (last night's ... Inspiration) and messaging me.

She's more disturbed by the dissection of the road kill and the presenters enthusiasm for kangaroo sex than the echidna masturbation. She's just weird.

Kat, that is exhausting.

I am not surprised. That is a lot.

I am not sure how reliable the guy who advised me about human application of Advantage or Frontline might be. As I recall he was Some Guy At a Park with a Dog During Business Hours. Which could go either way in terms of reliability.

My Mean Crepuscular Volume seems to be consistently just a little under the normal range. I am weirdly gratified by the consistency.
