Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

::checks medical record:: Yup, Mountain Juniper is one of mine. I do love having my test results available on my phone, it's not like I can just remember these things.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, there's been plenty of complaining around here about the juniper. I do have various allergies, including actual cedar, but I'd have thought it would already be bothering me. On the other hand, I spent five hours outside yesterday.
Or maybe it's the continual yo-yo fun between the 40s and the 80s. We've generally been able to get away with not needing A/C, which is great for the electricity bill, but it starts to make me feel schizophrenic.
That Texas Monthly article is hilariously resentful.

I have problems with eating lobster - nothing major, but if I try to eat any quantity (i.e., I can have shrimp with lobster sauce, but not lobster with any other kind of sauce) it leave me with a bad stomach ache.
Possibly one of the most first-world problems ever ... but I console myself with the thought that it leaves my share of lobster for those who want to eat it and can.

I imagine the swings in temperature have been accompanied by pressure fluctuations, which always make my minor congestion issues more major.

And, of course, the plants are having an early orgy, with pollen floating everywhere.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We have a Random Daffodil on our front lawn. Not sure how it got there, considering we had the lawn re-sodded last fall.(Long story short, there was a giant tree in our front yard. It was diagnosed with Ash Borer disease, cut down and completely removed. We decided to re-sod the lawn after that.)

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Okay. Here's a dilemma: I made a King Cake to take in to work tomorrow, but cannot find the plastic babies I thought I had. How wrong would it be to substitute a tiny plastic velociraptor?

Not wrong at all, imo. Although I suppose saying "oh no, a velociraptor ate the baby Jesús!" would be pretty wrong. But very funny.
Ha! Two things I thought I may have dropped at Target have turned up here at my house. Take that My General Tendency to Lose Things! Not today.
I have to share this weirdness - the Church of Scientology addressed an envelope to
My Name
1103 Mail St
Stanford University, CA
My Zip
It made it to me, which is kind of impressive, but those are some weird damn errors. I hope no one has stolen my identity and gotten me into a jillion more mailing lists, although if they are doing it with this wacky address that might actually be more convenient
