Ann, that's a ferret.
From the radio, so no link available: There is "an active shooter" in Fort Lee, Virginia.
Do we have anyone in that area? (Edited to add: Fort Lee is near Petersburg, south of Richmond.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Heh. It'll be interesting to see how that shows up on my sleep quality stats.

Heh. Yeah, I'm in that blue spike, my parents are in the "barely registered" Santa Cruz, although they definitely woke up. I wonder if it got false "wake up" data from the shaking itself. I don't know about Jawbone, but my iPhone app tells I'm awake by the vibrations of the bed.
Did I tell y'all a bee landed on me at the art show a coupleweeks ago? Just landed on my arm. I stood as still as I could muttering "please don't sting me" and it just walked around grooming itself for a minute or two and then flew off. It was interesting, I had never observed that behavior before.
Propos of nothing: I am weirdly outraged at the news that Burger King might buy Tim Horton. That just seems wrong.
Stay safe, Virginians.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I've never been stung by a bee in my life and it's always been fun to watch them amble from flower to flower. Wasps, however, get the flyswatter or hornet spray as applicable. (Dad's actually deathly allergic to wasp stings, so we've always had a kill first and ask questions later policy with them.)

Dammit, I forgot to bring a knife for my avocado.

Motivation is nowhere to be found and I have run out of internets.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
The cat stole my motivation. But he's not getting my internets.

Swimming milestone: I did not stop to rest after any of laps today! Only 7, and every third length was backstroke, but still, it's progress.
