I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Shit, y'all, Omarosa's dropping a video on Hardball tonight.

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

Oooh, good plan, Zenkitty! I may join you in that.

Our wings are not tired.

This isn't even a Friday! Fun times. Also, MSNBC has been commercial free for hours.

I've been switching over to entertainment early every night, but tonight the news is more entertaining than usual.

I haven't actually looked at the news, just what y'all say here and whatever my flist posts on FB but I am kind of giddy.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have only heard a tiny bit of news from my parents satellite radio, but it all sounds good I think?

My big revelation today was learning the wonders of a top-down fire. It goes against literally GENERATIONS of fire-building advice I have received, but it works like MAGIC. 10/10, would burn again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What does that even mean? Put the kindling and stuff on top??? My Girl Scout mother would NEVER.

I wonder who has to go to prison for anything bad to happen to DJT.

I think the spin will be that nothing in either of these cases has implicated collusion with Russia and therefore doesn't matter.

Ken Starr was investigating the Whitewater real estate deal.

Yes, and I know, but it really does work! Like really really well!

What? How? I am bewildered and confused by this "top down fire". I don't think I'm ready for it. That is not how Uncle Walter taught my dad to build fires with twigs. That is not how we readied coals in the hibachi. Pretty sure that's not how that guy built a fire in the very depressing Jack London story.

Give me some time to come to grips with the possibility and then tell me all about it.
