Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

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

When they were talking about Tara's death, they said that everyone was surprised and there were no spoilers for it, and even that there was no way to get spoilers back in the day.

BWAHAHAHA, says one former spoiler addict from back in the day. (I miss the heydey of the Spoilers thread, back when we were all watching the same thing at the same time. These days even when a big chunk of the board is watching similar shows and talking about them, so much stuff is available all at once that spoilers aren't really a thing anymore!)

I have mowed, weeded, and now my back yard looks more or less respectable. Tomorrow I do the front. I think the beautyberrys I planted last fall may be dead, which would be sad, but the chokeberry and New Jersey Tea are doing ok, and will be doing even better once I get all the weeds out of their way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that's as much information as I've seen. Awful.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sounds like one death is confirmed, and the guy has claimed that others also happened. No corroboration yet.

I'm not a fan of this part of the brave new world.

I made meatloaf with the liquid eggs--sorry, no mayo--and they worked beautifully. So much simpler to deal with. And very yummy meatloaf.

California day one, done. I flew in SFO early and drove up to Sacramento to visit my mom's best friend. I got to see her new place and we could have chatted for hours on end. I know California needs the rain, but I have tickets to tomorrow's A's game, so I really hope it lets up tomorrow. Priorities!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We packed and sorted and packed and cleaned and packed all weekend and had the realtor here to look things over this afternoon. After listing the tasks we need to do and jointly deciding to remove all the books and bookshelves from the office wall (it's an odd room and we want to make it look as nice as possible), we decided to push back listing the house by two more weeks

This will allow us to get everything done and not kill ourselves in the process.

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

I discovered some money. I thought I had closed out some saving accounts and I HAD NOT, so yay! money to pay down the credit cards. not nearly all of it, but more than I thought I had this morning, so YAY! and I did my taxes and will get some back so that will also go to the cards.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yay for found money, msbelle!

Packing is hard. Moving is hard. More time to do both is good!

Cannot even deal with the horrible news out of Cleveland. I'm seriously not looking at it.

Yay money!

Boo moving, but yay realistic timeframes!

It's a state holiday here (Patriots Day), but not for me. Boooo.
