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

Go declawed old cat with the mouse catching! Maybe don't bring it right to Sophia next time, but that is impressive.

I, as usual, heart Tim and his mouse-feeding ways.

Emily! Hi, Emily!

I can't really parse the human twins/ancient sins thing but I like the rhyme and meter of it.

This!

It is Saturday. I stayed in bed until after 7! My most excellent DH is going to the boat show in Palm Beach today to scope out all the selections before bringing me tomorrow to see those he thinks will interest me. I just don't enjoy it anymore as a sight seeing tour. He is pretty much totally on board with moving onto a boat after we sell this house. Head room in the head is his big requirement. Windows in the master cabin is my requirement.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously, are there boats big enough for your DH??

There are several makes that have taller cabins. The ones with 6'8" clearance aren't an option.

That sounds awesome, though.

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

Biyi and I celebrated our 10th anniversary this week. Yesterday I finally found the right present for her. We were visiting a local community arts centre that was showing some paintings by a Chinese-born artist (Chinese village scenes, mostly).The gift shop was selling some richly coloured glass pendants - purple, blue, red-and-gold and so on. I asked Biyi if any of them appealed to her, and she chose a triangular pendant, green and gold (depending on the light). At least most of it was, pushing out from one of the lower corners. The border of the opposite edge was all black.

"What do you like about that one?"
"It looks like a penguin!"
"I... well ok then!"

So now she is wearing a penguin pendant to celebrate ten years of Penguin marriage.

Been doing some lighting projects today. Replaced a florescent fixture in the basement with LED. Also added 3,200 lumens of goodness connected to a motion sensor in the garage finally giving it adequate lighting.

Tomorrow I'm planning to replace the belt and power steering pump on my car. It'll eat up a good amount of time, but doing it myself will save a small fortune.
