Timelies all!
I'm sitting here with Nova on my lap, while Gary and Mr. S clean up his room.(How much cleaning gets done by Mr. S is unknown.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
If getting to a PO and mailing things is not an obstacle for t=you Theo, then doing a Thredup box rather than straight buying things might work for you. You pay $10 and get to choose 10 things within a price range and from the closest warehouse. You have I think 7 days to try and on and return anything you do not want (they send a return label). The $10 goes toward whatever you keep and you pay the rest.

Thrive to spite them
We have a memory foam mattress topper and a heated mattress pad and it is an amazing combo and no problems. But it's just a topper but I haven't noticed any change in the way the topper feels since using the heated mattress pad...except it gets really cozy and relaxing which make it hard to get out of bed because it's so comfy

ltc is definitely feeling better because she hasn't stopped talking in the last 4 hours. I'm still not great, but I get to bring her to school tomorrow!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
msbelle, I always love a faded oriental rug, and that one comes in so many colorways you could match anything. But sara's seen the space, so I think I'd go with her choice.

So parents letting their children run around airports on scooters is now a thing. I narrowly avoided some older kids at SFO, but got nailed by a very small, unsupervised child at LAX earlier.

Yikes, shrift!
I was on a mountain bike ride this morning, grinding up a steep section of the trail, when a father & son passed us, riding electric scooters down the steel and bumpy trail! It did not look safe!
I was going to try to make kouign amann today, but it takes at least 6 hours, so instead I watched some GABO and ST:DSC. Finally got to the Mirror universe!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Me too. I was in Terminal 3 around 11 am and it was dangerous. I may have told the parents to get off of their phones and pay attention to their crotch goblins. (I said children, but these definitely fit the definition of goblins.)

Flashback to my old life—it's pre 5am and I'm in a lyft on the way to the airport...but this time I have no status, yikes!

Because books.
Quick question: I'm interviewing for a job this morning. If she asks why I want to leave the bakery, what do I say? I want to leave because the new owner is a nightmare but I know that's not the thing to say.
