I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

There was pumpkin spice goat cheese

Yewch. That sounds kind of gross. Although I put cream cheese (when I have it) on pumpkin bread, so maybe it's not so bad.

I need to look at reallocating my 401K to something more conservative on Monday. Tomorrow I'm going to make myself get up and go to the farmer's market.

shrift, have you gone walking in the redwoods yet? Let me know if you want to do that some weekend, and I can pick you up at BART for an afternoon in the nice shady dampness.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Was just listening to the radio, to one of the myriad rock songs that are a thinly veiled description of sex. It occurred to me that the song was probably longer than most actual sexual encounters. Though I may be unfairly judging the men I knew in my 20s.

Wow, I am really angry today. Trying to figure out how to use this anger productively.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I did manage to enjoy our anniversary celebration last night, even though I felt guilty about it. The prosecco helped.

Spidra, those are great, thanks. I'm compiling a resistance-resources list for one of my regular linkspams, I'll include those. I'm also on MetaFilter, like a couple of other Buffistas, and Jessamyn West is a National Treasure.

And thanks to that, I have just subscribed to my first newsletter.

I am trying to make up for spending the entire day yesterday watching Jane the Virgin, by being productive today. I've already planted garlic and cleaned the oven. I need to ice my knee and return some winter boots to the store, and shop for something that will work. I really just want another pair of the ones I have, which have been good boots for 6 years.

Also Jane the Virgin is so great. There aren't any networks carrying it here, except for a streaming service that's shutting down. Fortunately, I can use a VPN to watch it on the CW site.
