I am also at a conference. I was in a training all day yesterday that wasn't very good. But this morning's keynote speaker was Adam Minter, author of Junkyard Planet, and he was excellent, so today is already looking up!

I would love if it got cold in the winter but not dark. That would be so nice. I hate getting up in the dark.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've been depressed lately. And I find myself enjoying the shorter days and the increased darkness.
Today is dark, rainy and windy, which makes me happy.

I would say that now, too, meara, although realistically once it gets cold I know I will just want to stay under the comforter forever, also. Basically I should be able to spend winter in bed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
How is it only Tuesday, omg.

Oh, jeez, I just nearly walked into someone letting my eyes rest on a long blink. I may be more tired than I thought.

Yes. I think humans (or some of us) have a hibernation instinct. I just wanna turn my living room into a giant pillow fort and bury myself under pillows and blankets for a few months.

That would be perfect.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I want a pillow fort right now. I can't hear this guy talking about the history of publishing.

Forget decorative gourds, it's pillow fort season!
