My non-NT mind is stuck on "blue tarp," which I hear a lot. Fiber-reinforced plastic (as opposed to outdated canvas) tarpaulins come in silver, orange, and green, that I'm aware of. Probably beige or something, as well. Is there some rule that says one has to specify the color when mentioning use of a tarp?
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Laura, already seeing that on my Facebook feed. Grr.

So I woke this morning with about 30 flea bites, mainly on one part of my neck, and about a dozen or so in my cleavage. I kind of suspected Oz might have fleas because I had the odd bite here and there lately, but I've never found any evidence of any on him or anywhere else. Oh boy is it going to be a fun night of laundry and vacuuming.

The weighted blanket I ordered (you know, to relax me and alleviate anxiety) got misdelivered to a neighbor's house. We got their package instead. Amazon claimed that my package had been delivered to a "front desk or receptionist" and signed for by someone named Bailey. This whole process did not reduce my anxiety.

It's not just the darkest timeline, it's the darkest poorly-written Trump fanfic timeline.
At least My Immortal was entertaining. This timeline is so, so not.
In other fire news, a Fresno man, who was house-sitting for his parents, decided to blow-torch some bl*ck w*d*w jillifonts.
Does the article have photos? I want to read it, but am wary.
Last night I did not use fire on giant jillifont that was in the basement. I sensibly screamed and ran away. (Mr. Loomycakes is away, so I have to deal with jillifonts on my own. Pray for me.)

Dear god of jillifonts, please tell your creatures to leave the Gothy One be. She looks friendly, but it's best to admire her from afar, if you have eight legs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sorry to add to this, but I've been trying to figure out what to do here: I have a tiny jillifont who lives in my kitchen, and which I enjoy. Except I recently realized there are two, so now I'm afraid someday there will be many! Should I just put them outside? Now I feel bad and like I'm evicting them.

Jesse, if you're not phobic, leave them be. They're helpful! They eat other bugs!

Can they get outside if they want to, Jesse? I would guess that any potential offspring would be eager to strike out on their own rather than filling up your kitchen.

Jesse, I have left spiders be in my bathroom and they usually disappear or the cat eats them.
