The color of the red carpet seems to be rose.
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Ren Faire trip went well. The weather was lovely, and the little guy slept through most of it. (Of course, now he's being fussy)

Fastest 2 miles since 2012. After yesterday's slowest since last weekend. I have no idea what my body is doing.
Got way too much at work tomorrow, uhg.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hey, I went to school with an Emmy winner.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
one of my San Diego college-era peeps just IM'd me to say that she's at Sox's books, beer and tacos event right now! Yay!
Since one of your people said she might come, I considered loudly doing a "Who here knows Jacqueline?", but then didn't, alas. Ah well, still an excellent good time!

I like her already.
I don't think I heard anything like 'buffista adjacent' but it was a little bit of a blur.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Monday, argh. First day at the new/old job, and I'm not entirely sure where the HR office I'm supposed to report to is...
OTOH, jetlag means I didn't need the alarm clock today. So yay for that?
I got home from England on Friday and my kitchen is DONE. And then I spent all weekend unpacking and moving & sorting things. Still a lot to do, but I have fruit and milk and flowers, so I'm good to go.
Still miss English tea, though: something about the water makes it better than here, sigh.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I know it's a weird thing to say about English food, but it tastes so much better. K. and I drank a pint of fresh whole milk in Ireland and it was heavenly.
Welcome home, though!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm worried about our ancient kitty Slinky. We think she's constipated, based on what's in the litter box. She's also been yowling occasionally, isn't eating, and has been throwing up a little. But she also hasn't been grooming herself, and she's walking very gingerly.
I'm kind of concerned that maybe this is the end for our kitty. She's 18 years old; we know she isn't going to live forever, but it's still hard to consider it.
Plus, this is our anniversary, and instead of going out for a fancy dinner, we're taking the kitty to the vet. (We moved the fancy dinner to Wednesday. The pets are way more important than a meal.)
