Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oooh, I love crows. I don't really miss my commute but I do miss seeing the crows and ravens that hang out by the train station.
My yard has been full of starlings lately, and one cardinal pair that seem to be in a fight (they used to feed together but lately he's been hanging out in our front yard while I only ever see her in back).
Maybe they are dividing their forces to keep Other Birds away more effectively?
I was hearing more birdsong than usual for a while but either I've gotten used to it or my bird population is quieter. I guess the migrants have pretty much passed through(I'm in the Pacific Flyway, the migrating population can be significant!) so it may be a matter of just my year-round population being here now.I definitely hear them all more than I see them.
We have crows in our neighbourhood. My favourite residents though are the kookaburra pair that moved in sometime while we were visiting America.
The merry merry king of the bush?
Why did we learn that song in elementary school?
Zoom call done, old school conference call in 20 minutes...two internal conference calls tomorrow. Whee.
I have three teenaged squirrels outside my window! And so many birds. I was trying to track down a duck earlier this morning.
We love you, Tom.
Yeah yeah yeah
Someone commented that, since marijuana is legal and haircuts aren't, the hippies have won.
The hardest thing about having teens exploring their gender identity is trying to not get too involved in the process. Waiting until they ask for advice, being supportive, and open to whatever comes takes a lot of patience. I just want them to be happy, you know. In whatever form that takes.
I feel like that's pretty much true for teens in every context, not just exploring gender identity. It's so hard to be patient and not offer advice until they ask.
That seems like it's a lot of parenting - letting them figuring stuff out and being ready to help without taking over. ~ma for all that, Cashmere
Timelies all!
Kinda quiet around the board today. (I almost said around here, but y'all might think I mean my house, which ha. Not with Max Volume around.)
