So much love right now.

You know those days when you check in and read often then realize hours later you haven't actually posted?

OK, Ellen & Michelle go to CVS: [link]

Joy!

Everyone in my family but my Dad is going to be away for Thanksgiving this year.

I have to give T'day some thought. We are going to be gone for Christmas so I will do major food thing here for Thanksgiving. Buffistas that can deal with blackout days airfare should come to Florida and be fed by me.

Oh wow. I didn't realize that XKCD did something this cool about climate change.

Also, super cool.

There are some Buffistas in the Portland, Oregon area, right?

As they said, yes. I really liked the look and feel of Portland the only time I visited. Might be a less traumatic move than Detroit.

Both Free Will Astrology (which I like because of how it's rah-rah motivational) and my Susan Miller horoscope say that shit is about to get REALLY GOOD for me.

Because I really wanted to not work this morning I checked out both of these. Free Will was fun to read, and Susan was super extensive. Both assured me of good times so I like 'em. From Free Will -

Should you be worried if you have fantasies of seducing a deity, angel, or superhero? Will it be weird if some night soon you dream of an erotic rendezvous with a mermaid, satyr, or centaur? I say no. In fact, I'd regard events like these as healthy signs. They would suggest that you're ready to tap into mythic and majestic yearnings that have been buried deep in your psyche. They might mean your imagination wants to steer you toward experiences that will energize the smart animal within you. And this would be in accordance with the most exalted cosmic tendencies. Try saying this affirmation: "I am brilliantly primal. I am wildly wise. I am divinely surprising."

^^^^ That there is an entertaining horoscope!

Was it ridiculous of me to expect that the currants would also be IN the scone? Because they are not. And I feel cheated. Grump grump grump

Yeah, you got screwed.

Timelies all!

Thanksgiving this year will be, like it has been for many years, at Gary's mom's house. Whether there will be anyone other than the four of us there, I dunno.

I'm beginning to organize getting movers scheduled. And I'm getting thoughts of "I can't have movers in, the house is a mess! And what will the junk haulers think about how dirty the place is?"

Yes, I'm becoming worried about being judged by people whose job it is to haul away people's junk.

Their judgment, I predict, will be along the lines of "look at this awesome stuff we just scored!"

Going through paperwork to throw out, I found the letter the IRS sent us that time they thought we owed them $18,000. (We didn't. It's funny now.)

How do we feel about IKEA mattresses for a spare room bed?

As long as you don't have to build bedframes from IKEA...

That's the easy part.
