this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have laundry drying on the clothesline in the backyard for the first time since last year (because it's finally warm enough but not raining), and I am SO HAPPY. I also hard-boiled eggs to make egg salad with avocado for dinner for the first time since last year.

I love warm weather SO MUCH. I am basically the Heat Miser.

brillig

7 inches of snow predicted for the mountains, possible wintry mix overnight in the valleys. Mile-high subsidiary range of the Rocky Mountains, yay.

edit: When I lived in Pennsylvania, I laughed at the high elevation instructions on baking mixes. Who could possibly live that high up? Well, me and a couple of million others in this state, at least.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Do 4 of you have $50k you want to invest with me in a house

If only.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Do 4 of you have $50k you want to invest with me in a house, then split the rental income 4 ways for 2-3 years and then let me buy you out of your shares (with interest)? Serious question.

If I did, I would want to share it with you, not hand it over- I am in love with that house!

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

If I had $50,000 to invest I would absolutely do that, msbelle.

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

Timelies all!

Yep, wacky weather here in the DC area. Early April-type temps last week and suddenly Hello Summer!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You know, if Comey somehow ends up being the person who takes down Trump, I can't decide what that is. Cosmic justice? Bitter irony? Proof that Loki runs the universe?

Our wings are not tired.

I'd be amused. And grateful. Words I never thought I would use concerning Comey.

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

I think the question of why they think they need Trump in place in order to ram through their granny starving agenda is a good one. Why not Pence, or Ryan for that matter? I don't think I have a good answer for that one yet, but my vague and unformed thoughts mostly swirl around the idea that they think Trump can be framed as the fall guy when the poor, white, rural voters lose all their social services, and/or Trump's popularity with their base means they can burn off a bit of his social capital with those voters and still feel OK with their gerrymandered margins for 2018.

Oh and on a much happier note, shiny-object~ma, hippocampus!
