When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ok you cold weather wanting people. I have found 102 units in 3 apartment complexes on the same street, right be side each other in Omaha, NE. Studios up to 3 br. We would turn some whole buildings into guest spaces, communal living areas and even a dining space for group meals. 4.4 mil, so if 50 go in, that's be less than $100K each.

But then we'd be in Nebraska?

Of course, I've been googling cabins in the woods for my friends lately. Head in the sand feels like the only sane option at points here.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

For example, this lovely 8 bedroom Queen Anne in a northern MI college town, for under half a million: [link]

Are the red & blue hoses compressed air lines? I wonder what that's all about.

Omaha is not that cold. Some snow in the winter, hot in the summer, potential for tornadoes in the spring... like KC but with less freezing rain. I did like what I saw of Omaha when I was there for a week.

I do think the upper midwest will be less impacted by climate change for longer than other areas.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

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've thought about moving north a LOT. Because fuck 80+F in October.

I thought it was heated floors. They have them here.

Ah, that makes sense.

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

I think I could do Nebraska. I like this 3 apt complex compound idea.
