I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Noises from inside my house are most likely cats. Possibly cats that are not my cats

I suspect that some of the noises are chipmunks who have discovered the dry food. Although this morning there was a noise that could totally have been someone sliding in through the dining room window. I was too tired and went back to sleep.

No weapons nearby, at least potentials that I'm not talking about. Maybe I should move the butcher's block around the other way...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I was just about to lament my lack of weaponry by the front door when I remembered we usually have a large pair of garden shears right there. But dialing 911 would probably be the first thing I'd try.

Hmm, I should practice trying to lock the bathroom door. It's one of those cheap ones where you pull a small tab out on the side of the knob, and usually I have a door hanger over the top so it never closes properly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

What show prompted all this, ita? Is he a lawyer or a cop?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ai yai -- I got new glasses, including eye exam, on a whim after work, and the dilation is finally going away!

I had the bright idea a few weeks back to do that on my lunch hour!

Our wings are not tired.

The closest things to hand would be books. I could throw them and yell "Hark!"

Yo! Don't hurt the books!

That's all I got.

Such a Monday of Mondays. I am attempting to train #1 son to help me with tech stuff so I was having him install a utility on a server, but I didn't look over his shoulder and it wasn't the right server and he took down a diagnostic center in the middle of the day. Sob. I lacked confidence in how to get out of the mess and called DH for the rescue. He teased me about his being high level support since I pretty much never call for help, but fixed it. Fortunately this center loves me dearly so they were cool with the down time. That pretty much kept me off my game all day.

The only real smile for the day was my amusement with Chuck Norris. And then I made a fun dinner for the carb avoiding DH and #2 son so that was cool. I think a lot of junk tv is in my immediate future.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He's a lawyer, whose family is under threat due to ...just watch it. I loved it. Also Sophie Okenedo. PBS.

I have it on right now, as a matter of fact. Good.
