Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The whole impeachment thing is scary fascinating. But beyond the spectacle, I'm worried about what happens next.

I am wearing my most summery clothes, and flip-flops, and praying this is summer's last gasp. I also reserved The October Country by Ray Bradbury at the library this morning.

I'm wearing my puffy down jacket today, not just because it's cold now (49!) but I'm also going to the As game tonight...

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I just put the AC on because it's both warm and so humid that I can't stop sweating. But I'm drinking a spiced chai latte and trying to pretend it's Autumn.
Amy, I started a tradition a few years ago of also reading a Bradbury in October, and this year I decided to read From the Dust Returns.

We're a day behind you -- today and tomorrow are still going to be in the 90s, but Friday's high will (ALLEGEDLY) be 70. We also haven't had significant rain in a while, so our lawn looks brown and sad. But at least I'm almost done mowing for the year.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I am VERY unhappy with this random-summer-day-in-October bullshit, and so are my sinuses.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Someone told me yesterday that the temps this weekend would be in the 80s, but they are a week off. Temps for Austin this weekend (ACL baby) are highs of 94-97 with almost no clouds or breeze. Gonna be a hot one. Packing my cooling towels, hand fan, and parasol.

Hope the kidney stone comes out as painlessly as possible, PMM!
I woke up an hour early today and still didn't make it in to work on time! I did, however, manage to clean the litter boxes and take out the trash, so I'm chalking that up as a win.

Woo hoo! Bring them luck! It's going to be raucous.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
You guys, here's a thing that just makes my day: the Kroger near us used to have small carts along with the regular-sized ones, and then for some reason got rid of all the small carts...except one. So the latest trend in my neighborhood's Facebook group is to post a selfie with the small cart if you're lucky enough to get it when you go shopping. It's hilarious.
