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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Something vegetarian and freezable. Any suggestions?
Those black bean and butternut enchiladas?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
My deepest sympathies, tommy.

Our wings are not tired.
In TGIF news, this morning I prepared myself a nice bowl of oatmeal. Half cup of whole oats and a whole lot of sliced strawberries. Just kept slicing away. Added some cinnamon and nutmeg because it is super chilly here and some spice sounded warm. Put it in the microwave for a while on medium heat and left it there for a few minutes to cool off.
Just went in to fetch it to eat, and I had forgotten to add water. Sigh.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Last night, the demonstrations in Ferguson were not only peaceful, but Capt. Johnson marched with the protestors. He also set up media staging areas - no more tear-gassing of reporters. No, the underlying problems are not solved, but I think the right move was made in terms of the immediate situation.
However, you'd think from all the social media I follow that Ferguson was still on fire. Yes, it's important to keep alive what happened and make sure it doesn't get swept under the rug, but it feels like some positive steps are being ignored. I'm surprised at how majorly PISSED OFF this is making me.

I am still waiting for my 8:30 consult with the orthodontist. This does not bode well....

Agreed. Progress should be as compelling news as disaster.

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. Plus the huge change illustrates how fucked up the police's initial response was. That needs to be emphasized.

Thanks everyone for your support.
I'm driving up today to meet my siblings at the funeral home for some planning. You know, I haven't worn a suit in 20 years so I don't have one that fits. I'll ask my siblings if they think I should get one. I wonder if I can have a rush suit-fitting job so I'll have it in time. Maybe I'll just buy a off-the-rack black jacket.
