Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Because books.

Instead, she got to live on her own to the end, relatively pain free and enjoying life. 89 is a good run and shhe lived it to the fullest.

That's a wonderful thing, Scrappy. Much love to you.

Dad's got an ugly infected gall bladder, which he will not have later today, according the surgeon. And Dad's cranky, but otherwise fine, so it's all handled. Between S.'s mini stroke, and this, and Second Winter, though, March is definitely On the List.

Our wings are not tired.

Good that it is something treatable, Amy. No doubt I would be cranky too.

Instead, she got to live on her own to the end, relatively pain free and enjoying life.

Yes, this is the best we can hope for. I'm glad she was able to be surrounded by loved ones.

I'm looking forward to the March here later today. The turnouts at the earlier events have been incredible.

Coding and Sleeping

DW is driving me crazy. She wants me to get her new website up quickly, but she keeps changing what she wants.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I got one of those emails from Tumblr saying that I'd reblogged something from a Russian-linked account. Okay. How do I have any hope of finding what it was? My reblog on my Tumblr page includes the person I reblogged it from, but not the original poster. Is there any way to find those, other than opening up each reblog and looking at the notes?

I got one of those emails, too, and I can't figure out how to find the Russians either.

Find the Russians! A great new game for the whole family! Perfect retro fun, ask Grandpa about those wacky Cold War shenanigans!

I just want to note that an ingrown toenail hurts WAY out of proportion to its size. Also, there is apparently no such thing as "toe morphine," which is bullshit.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

In your shoes, Steph, I would try Oragel or some such. Just because it is labeled for oral use does not mean it won't help your toe.

Gud, that is enough to make anyone grit their teeth. Or Cuss.

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

They don't tell you which post? Not so helpful.

That is a lot, Amy. Hope the gall bladder removal is easy and effective!

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

I went to bed early and still slept til 11. muscles are sore from gym and head is aching from allergies.

I am going to do some cleaning in the garage though, so the day will not be a waste.
