I just got a call that was like, We might have to cancel your doctor's appointment tomorrow, but maybe not? Call us back. Which I did, which was dumb, because I can definitely do the appointment if they will be there, since it is right by my house. So now I'm waiting until their afternoon meeting when they will make the call.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
You guys, this is hilarious: one of my FB friends is a nun, about 4 years older than me. (She was also a Marine and is currently a journalist who rescues/fosters feral kittens in her spare time. Nuns roll deep.) She posted that her newest foster kitten is a total snugglebug, EXCEPT that he gets freaked out if she has a hoodie on with the hood up -- she called that her "Nun thug" look. The comments have run wild with what she should have printed on her hoodie. So far the winner is "Notorious N.U.N."

I've got a doctor's check up tomorrow, and I'm in my usual "You haven't taken very good care of yourself, your numbers will be horrible, he's going to sigh at you, your body's falling apart, why can't I just live my life without obsessing about all this" mood. Granted, I said "fuck it" over the holidays, and while I didn't go utterly hogwild, there were still some pie situations that I shouldn't have indulged in. It just seems like such a losing battle between poor health and living a life where I need to spend my time judging everything I do. I envy the people who don't give a damn.

...I hadn't thought about the downsides to an early-January check-up until just now. Meh.

That is perfect.

When/If Ruth Bader Ginsburg retires, I want her last entry into the Supreme Court chambers to be preceded by Lin-Manual Miranda declaring her achievements in rhyme, ending with "Notorious R.B.G. in the house!"

I love the Notorious NUN! Also the LMM for RBG idea.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I can't decide if Trump turned on Bannon or Bannon turned on Trump or if they simultaneously turned on each other or if something else entirely is going on or if Steve Bannon is just a bunch of otters in a human suit.

I like to think a bunch of otters would be more engaging, no matter what suit they wore.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Greetings from Tanzania! Safaris are awesome, as is Paris. We saw a 2 day old elephant baby yesterday, and a cheetah today. On Friday we start climbing Kilimanjaro, and I have a head cold, argh. But so far the trip has been great with minimal travel angst and lots of wonderful family experiences.
It's now 11 pm here, and I'm going to bed. Wish us luck!
Oh, and happy New Year to all you lovely Buffistas!
