I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Yeah, I think you cancel work.

Really need to start this load of laundry.

Went to feed friends' cats. Heard a cat crying. It was OTHER friends's cat, begging to come in ( he's stayed there.) Give him attention, come home.

My cats reenact WW2 at the porch doors. Pooch is now at my door, calmly staring in.

Guess he's bored today ( he has a cat door, he can go home.)

Our wings are not tired.

this lovely 8 bedroom Queen Anne in a northern MI college town, for under half a million

Wow!! That is beautiful.

Yikes, Dana. I hope naps can happen.

Punishingly Intricate

I'm sorry, Jesse.

I'm stressed about how much work I need to get done before we go on vacation Thursday. And how incapable à am at working quickly. And everything else I also need to get done. And we're staying with our friends' kids this weekend so I can't just hole up all day today and muscle through some stuff.

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

I'm sorry about the stress, lisah.

In other news, I just fired off an application for a job in the upper peninsula of MI. Because f*** 80F in October, man.

I mean, I'm not expecting to get it. But it felt good to apply.

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

I am so sorry, Jesse. Sending love and support to everyone.

I am making chili today, I must be tapping into the hivemind

I made peanut butter cookies, but they are disappointing. Too cakey and soft. I should have made chili.

Herding cats for fun

Now I want food.

My dream house right now is straw bales covered with clay. Cool in summer. Warm in winter. Best of all, soundproof. No need to lie awake thinking about wishing someone near by would shut her shrieking noise hole.

Now I'm sad about how I missed book stores since leaving SF, and now they are gone with the wind.

In better news, I have blue skies and better air. I am ridiculously grateful.

Curiously one of the books they had at Overland Books was about the history and structure of The Sod House. Made me think of all the Little House fans here.

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

Timelies all!

I'm sorry, Jesse.

Went to get Mr. S new shoes, as he had basically outgrown his "nicer" shoes. Ended up getting him two pairs of shoes and a pair of snow boots.
