Storms hit, just enough lagging thunder to make swim dubious, so I gave away the old ac unit and power washed the front porch and steps. And man, that was gross & satisfying.
Mal: And I never back down from a fight. Inara: Yes, you do! You do all the time!

Our wings are not tired.
Funny you should bring that up... Shipping gonna be a thing, tho'.
At least media mail is a lower rate! Sounds like an awesome idea, Scrappy.
Yes, you got this, meara!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I called Macy's, fought my way through the automated system to the area where I was when I last had the phone...and got voice mail. I may try calling tomorrow from work, but if I have no success, I go get another phone.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Today was Harvey's annual exam and shots. The vet he's seen most often over the last few years recently retired. New vet seems good - suggested that since I'm not seeing any dramatic changes in him that it is not necessary to do lab work. That was nice, not to have to stress him out. She also gave us a new pain medication to try that he can take every day for more consistent pain relief. It's in capsules, vet suggests breaking open the capsule and mixing the powder into a spoonful of turkey baby food. So far the only turkey baby food I'm seeing has corn starch in it. Corn is one of the things Harvey is allergic to.
ETA: I just found a turkey baby food that has no corn starch but does have chicken. Harvey is allergic to chicken.

Figured it out - we'll just reserve a spoonful of their can of cat food to mix the medicine into.
Wow. Anxiety...

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Ugh. I'm only going to say this once, because I fully realize how petty it makes me sound: my uncle's funeral is Friday, which is also my birthday. I've had lousy birthdays, but a funeral is a new one. Jesus.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
This sounds like an occasion for an "observed" modifier. Teppy Day Observed can be on the first non-funeral day following the actual day. You're like George Washington.

I second DebetEsse's motion.

Herding cats for fun
Wanting a non crappy birthday is not petty.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I agree with Debet. Your birthday is such a special day for you, you need it on a different day!
