Thank you! I just had a moment of missing you all today thinking about how much I've grown as a person. And of course, that made me think of b.org.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Aw, Chris Evans' uncle lost his election. I have no dog in the race, but I feel bad for him by proxy.
Stephanie, I am so inspired by the good work you do. You are a beacon of hope. It's lovely to see you here again!

I remember having some fairly long discussions with you back on LiveJournal too. You been through some changes, girl!
Congrats on all the growth, Stephanie!
Only two votes on the beta board. Maybe I should have made the question about cilantro.
Yay Stephanie!
Gud, is this actually on the beta board (which I haven't been on) or do I need to go check lightbulbs?
Went to see Crazy Rich Asians tonight with a friend. Was sorta disappointed—I mean, yay Roma tic comedy, yay representation in Hollywood, yay hot Asian men, but I think I'm jaded on the wealth porn? It all seemed not that exciting. But maybe I'll read the book, I'm sure when you spell out the idea more it might shock my parsimonious heart more?
Was alerted to a stray dog on my block tonight. Of course I am that neighbor that goes out if there is any yelling or noise, in this case a car horn honked twice. Old lady long-haired dachshund. Not greatly cared for, some mats, REALLY dirty ears, a lump of some sort on her chest. I brushed a few brush-fuls of hair of her tonight and he skin is super flakey. I've got food and water out for her, but she showed no interest in either.
It's on the actual beta board which as at https://beta.buffistas.me
You would think, with as many tattoos as I've gotten, I'd remember that the closer to boney areas, the more it stings. Today's was near both my wrist and my elbow. Ow. But worth it.
Hey y'all that have gone through menopause and had hot flashes, were you unnormally cold the rest of the time?
Yes, but I'm like that most of the time, even before menopause. I wear socks to bed 3/4 of the year, and my feet never sweat. So menopause is a problem because I have to layer like a mofo. Sweater on, sweater off, sweater on, sweater off... so annoying.
Speaking of Naomi, my youngest niece (who is 10! wow!) has read Uprooted at least twice, and when I saw her in Colorado, she spent the week rereading her favorite parts of His Majesty's Dragon over and over again. She has read the whole series (mostly on audiobook with her father) but seems to love the first one the best.
