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

Ooh Dana, that sounds lovely! I hope you have a great time.

I just saw the most horrifying thing ever—a nature program about the bite of the Lone Star tick making people allergic to meat.

Ha! Well that's one way to encourage more vegetarianism. Speaking of, my daughter's best friend has decided to be a vegetarian (her mom is but the rest of the family isn't) so now Frances is interested in it too. Except even she realizes she sometimes snarfs down meat like she's craving it, which given her wee body and her eating habits, she probably is. So I'm trying to turn this into an opportunity for her to learn about what kinds of legumes, seeds, and vegetables will help her meet all her protein needs. She tried a bit of tofu scramble the other day, but Isaac was the one who ate it. Ah well, baby steps.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, now I'm watching TV and eating almonds, but soon it will be time for shower and errands!

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

I have so much to do and so little energy to do any of it. Whatever is going on with my tooth is taking more out of me than I want to admit, and I cannot figure out what makes it worse or better (if it is not just random chance or time). Frustrating.

And ordered more supplies, because I foolishly got myself into a dumb system that I actually really like.

This has me curious. Can you explain?

It's this foolishness. Special pellets AND disposable pads! I've been using Feline Pine pellets from the supermarket in it, but I actually like the branded pellets better because they fall apart more slowly, which means they don't fill up the pad section as fast.

Interesting, thanks! There are definitely getting to be way too many choices for all that.

Yeah, I got suckered in when I got Hazel because I needed everything, and this was several things in one box on the endcap of the aisle, so.

Oh, also: Sophia, I just saw your thread on the AAM open thread! Ridiculous!

Went to bed at a reasonable hour, got up at a reasonable hour, drank a lot of coffee....and basically haven'tmoved off the couch. Reading under the cats mostly, but also some kinda dozing. Finally got the bright idea to maybe eat something when the cats started acting out for food. I swear, I need a plan for Sundays or I'll just imitate a log. And yes, there are errands I could run, but I'm just blowing them off because I'm not really excited to do them.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yesterday was for fun and socializing, so I've tried to make today productive. So far I've grocery shopped, vacuumed, cleaned the tub, done about half my laundry, and cut up some apples for sauce ( need to cut up more, but I'm giving my wrist a break while walking the cat). It's a windy, cool, damp day here, which I often find pretty energizing.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!
