Timelies all!
Got a pedicure this morning. Now my toenails are sparkly gold with colored confetti.
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

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

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Twitter tells me that Trump is having epic tantrums over the Mueller indictments, and I"m going to cling to that. God, I hope he's miserable.

Our wings are not tired.
Seriously Dana, One of the things that keeps me hanging on is the thought that he is hating every day of life. t bitter - tag not closing

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
So, I got a text around 1pm today. It's from a friend (sort of—I haven't heard from her in over a year) who's daughter is getting confirmed in a local UU congregation. Tomorrow, at 9am. She was inviting me to the confirmation, followed by brunch at a ritzy restaurant and a party back at her place.
I find myself reluctant to change my weekend plans and, given the brunch place, my entertainment budget, on less than 24 hours notice. Especially since, what with the timing, I suspect that someone bowed out at the last minute, leaving an empty seat in the reservations and opening it up to her second string "friends".
I've already been to her daughter's baptism in a different church, followed by lunch and whatnot. I think I'm going to give this event a pass.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Send a card. That should actually be enough.
Guys, I want to jump and squee at the news but basically I'm avoiding it all--I can't help expecting that it all comes to nothing and I don't think I can live with raised hopes and expectations, followed by more (the inevitable, I'm afraid) crushing disappointment. I'm totally aware that's not how other people deal, and that's fine. I just wanted to, I don't know, let y'all know what a supertitious old biddy I am, I guess.
As you were.

Thrive to spite them
I'm expecting the Monday to find out the indictment is for someone low level. It might be Manafort but it maybe be someone less than that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
For sure.

If it gives Trump a weekend of heartburn, I'll take it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm guessing Manafort. The speed and enthusiasm that Trump throws him under the bus with will be huuuuuuuge.

I think you're right.

The thought that any of these racist grifters isn't legally immune gives me joy. I don't care if it's the poor schmuck who carries 45's paperclips.
