Enough adventures, Cosmo, stay snug at home in your hobbit hole.

In me news - this waking up in the cold and dark is, well, I was gonna say for the birds but birds famously wait until sunrise. Daylight Savings Time had gone on for too long is my point.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Also, I said this in Bitches, but it's worth saying again:

Yay, Cosmo!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Anne, I got a humane feral cat trap from the Humane Society Sunday, and put it by the side of the house Sunday, and nada. I put it, baited with a sheet Cosmo had slept on, and an open can of tuna back by the side of the garage, where it's wilder, and sprinkled tuna juice all over the back yard and smeared on the fence at cat level leading to the trap.

And my husband checked it this morning, and came in and woke me up (possibly the only thing besides a fire or intruder he would EVER wake me up for!) and THERE SHE WAS! Terrified, and yowling, and with a big scrape a couple of days old on her face.

It's been a couple of hours and she's had her scrape cleaned, and all the animals have greeted her, and she's sat on my lap and been loved on. And now she's on her blankie in my office, sleeping.

CO2 is more of a problem in newer house construction, where the houses are more air-tight and energy-efficient. If you've got a leaky old house like mine, it would have to be an extraordinary amount of gas before you'd notice.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh Strix, that is just so beautiful to read.

I keep turning around to look at her, and I can't stop smiling!

Thank you, Theo. This house is probably '50s construction and has lots of little leaks.

I just looked over my county's ballot and found out that an Elvis impersonator who's apparently changed his legal name to Elvis Presley is running for State Land Commissioner.

Ah, if only all the crazies made themselves so easy to spot.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

There's a Darth Vader running for president of Ukraine. Although apparently they wouldn't let him vote because he wouldn't take off the mask, and I'm a little worried that that's like half their voter base. [link]

One thing I like about paying by Starbucks app, I can realize an hour later that I did not tip the nice lady at the window (who initially forgot my sandwich, but went and got it for me when I reminded her) and do something about it rather than just feel bad. (Did not attempt to order the elusive Oprah chai. I don't want to get sucked into that shadowy underworld)
