Great day today. It involved a trip to Healesville Sanctuary where we saw no less than seven echidnas. Finished up watching Jaynestown and Out of Gas with Biyi. As days go, it doesn't get much better than that.
Fred: Oh my God! Angel, you're…cute! Angel: Fred, don't! Fred: Oh, but the little hands! And the hair! Angel: Hey! You're fired.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

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

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was born in '78, I have a 10 year-old and a Subaru, and most moms in my kids' age group are 5-10 years older than me.

Our wings are not tired.
I was a very late starter at the time, my sisters grandchildren are older than my kids. Most of the parents at school events were young enough to be my kids and probably assumed I was the grandparent. It seems to have changed a lot. Woman have things on their list before birthin' babies.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sure that I'm older than most of the moms of the kids in Mr. S's school. I also know that I am technically old enough to be the mom of a number of my co-workers. That's just how things went.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Echidnas *and* Firefly? That is an *excellent* day!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I went to a rally briefly and then to the supermarket, where I bought everything to make lentils.... except the lentils! Luckily, it's all stuff that will keep.

I was worried not many people would show up for the March today, but it looks like there are tens of thousands of people in the streets. We might not get a million but it's a good turn out. Perfect timing too.

After a great internal debate about whether I really needed to leave the house again, I went to the grocery store and when I got to the checkout, I realized I left my wallet at home. I should have just stayed in!

Staying in is always the answer!
....even though I'm about to go to the movies. That's practically the same as staying in, though.
ION, I'm so pleased: I called out someone on the internet for downplaying race as a factor in a thing, and they said, "You're right." OK then!!
