Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Herding cats for fun

There's another Netflix series with a hunky and heroic rescue squad called The Horn, where they fly helicopters up the Matterhorn searching and rescuing amid the gorgeous scenery. I was quite taken with those guys. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with a fear of flying or reading the occasional subtitle. If I were in trouble I'd be pretty happy if those guys were coming to get me.

There's another one called "Towies" based in Australia, about a family run company of tow truck operators who work on hauling stolen vehicles out of forests, cars out of rivers known for crocodiles, and wrecked boats off remote beaches. And occasionally towing each other out of spots. The daughters of the family are also drivers.

I can't stand "reality" TV, but I love these Canadian and Australian shows about rescue workers.

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

Beverly, holy crap, that's scary. I'm glad you're okay!

Shir, I'm sorry it didn't work out.

Rescue workers are the good kind of drama.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All I have left to do is mop before I think my house is clean enough for guests. And that will take me one minute, because my bathroom is tiny and the kitchen is easy. But I don't wanna!!

So I split the difference and did the Swiffer wetjet. Phew.

I was gonna start cleaning 2 hours ago (and would be almost through) but Loki & Pumpkin needed a bed to lie on, so I had to stay still.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

A car alarm was going off sporadically from midnight to 10am directly across the street from me.

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

One of my fondest desires is to rip all the carpet out of this house and replace it all with hardwood. I'd settle for vinyl plank--cheaper, easier, yes, cheesier, but still better than carpet. And I swear I'd swiffer every damn day. It practically takes someone holding a gun on me to get the vacuum out of the closet. My most-hated chore is vacuuming. I will--and have--scrub toilets on my knees rather than vacuum.

Our wings are not tired.

Mopping is the only thing I dislike more than vacuuming.

Ugh, aurelia. That sounds seriously annoying.

Today has been shit, but at least the Falcons just lost with 7 seconds to go in the fourth quarter.

I'm not going to post this until the clock actually runs out.

Okay, it's safe.
