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.'

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

!!!David!!! Dying of envy here! Wow, congrats.

I copied Consuela's comment about the admin never surrendering control and was gonna add to it. I can absolutely imagine King Donald, or Emperor Donald, whichever he decides on, and his line of heirs, Jared, and Jared and Ivanka's kid, the dynasty ensured.

Isn't there some way we can just...ignore these people? Civil disobedience--they amend a standing law to harm more people and steal more money, we say, not doing that. Stop paying taxes to the fed and put that money toward local civic needs, infrastructure, health care, support at grass roots level? I mean without incoming taxes they can only squander what they already have their greasy hands in--why do we have to send them more? Short of a guillotine, I don't see any other way to behead the dreadful wyrm that is this administration.

Herding cats for fun

Unexpected adventure in the garden this morning! I am sitting in bed reading news on my iPad. DH has gone out to look at the sunshine. I hear jingling noises, look out, and there is a big Husky dog trotting around the garden! It runs off to the neighbors. We say, wow! Didn't expect that at all. Then she came back looking for pets, so I quickly grabbed a leash and the phone and called the number on her name tag, which read Luna. Left voicemail and start to worry about what we can do if we don't get an answer. Walked Luna around the house and let her get a drink from the cat pond.

Then her owner, sounding very sleepy, calls and says he's our neighbor from down the street and will come get her. We wait on the front lawn, and she rolled over to show me her belly. You bet I pet that dog! The owner cons jogging down the street, to the delight of his dog. He thanks us profusely and we say we are glad to get a happy ending so quickly.

So I got to fulfill a bucket list wish of returning a lost dog to her person. It feels great!

I think I'll get a second copy so I can share it around.

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

Timelies all!

It's far too cold for May here. (Yeah, I know. At least there's no snow.) Also tired because I woke up at 4, and then at 6 and so on.(Got out of bed around 8:30)

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think I just got stood up for a Zoom Happy Hour.

With my sister.

Aw, now I want a visit from Luna!

I have achieved 2 dozen chocolate chip cookies. Nothing else I do today will top that.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's far too cold for May here.

It's like frickin' early March here.

Weirdly seattle is having somewhat unseasonably warm weather whilst y'all have snow.

I slept in and still felt sleepy for hours. Have now managed to start making cookies and started a load of laundry. Eventually will have my shit together.
