Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Good luck wishes to your dad, Matt. Recovery~ma to lisah's uncle. And I hope your first day is awesome, tommyrot--just a harbinger of the future.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Have you been out and about exploring the new terrain much?

I'm living in a suburb southwest of KC, so I've mostly been out shopping in the area. I bought a bed at Ikea--the first time I've owned a bed instead of a futon.

Mostly I've been trying to recover from the stress of packing and moving. Plus stress about the new job, but hopefully that'll go away once I actually start working.

Thanks everyone. We're taking him out tonight for his "last meal," though my impression is that he will still be able to eat a meal the traditional way for special occasions.

Recovery~ma to your uncle, lisah!

Sounds very exciting tommyrot. Hope the new job and location suit you.

hivemind - I am looking for a Daveed Diggs interview or post where he talks about things existing as both good and bad at the same time. I think it started as reference to Thomas Jefferson, but he also talks about rap. I swear I have seen it and I cannot find it.

I know there was something like that in the documentary that aired on PBS last year.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

That sounds right, somewhere near the end of the Hamildoc.

right, no way to link to the actual clip, it is behind the compass firewall on pbs. anyway my local NPR station had an interview with Margaret Biser today (this piece [link] and it reminded me of that clip.

Grr. Thought I was feeling better, but when I got off the couch to go walk down the street to the store, realized while I'm not as dizzy as yesterday I'm still a little weirdly out of it. Like, I feel as though if I move my eyes, or my head, my brain/vestibular system is a beat behind? It's weird.
