I don't know, Pix, are you going to interfere with my Sovereign Right to Fuck About Independently?
My food is problematic.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I announced my candidacy for Vampire Witch Queen years ago, so I'm ahead of the curve for announcing on social media?
I feel like inherent to being Vampire Witch Queen is that you just claim the position. No democracy involved whatsoever.

It'd be wise to get Guillermo on your side.

Nah, he just needs to recognize and fall in line.

I am taken aback. But for Atropa I can see that working.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ooh -t's right, you know.
Sigh, AmyP, it's not just parental units. H is out mending the shed roof across the street. When he peeled back the shingles, what was going to be a quick peel and patch turned into an "Oh dear, the sheathing didn't wrap the edge, water got in and now the rafter is half rotted away. And the wet seeped, and the next two rafters are affected as well." Which is going to require removing at least half the shingling and sheathing, and since he's "not up to" totally removing and replacing the entire roof, cutting and scraping out the rot, treating the timbers and sistering in pressure treated beams, sheathing correctly this time, and reshingling that half of the roof.
This was supposed to be a two-afternoon favor for a friend. We're gonna have lemon meringue pie, bottles of Jameson and cab merlot and chocolate chip cookies for *weeks*, because H can't walk away from either a commitment or a challenge.
ETA: What whips my chicken is the shed and install were a professional job. I can see why neighbor doesn't trust them to mend the job they did badly to start with. But it does seem they should be held accountable some way.

Because books.
"Whips my chicken" is entirely new to me, and entirely charming.
I'm gonna vote for all y'all.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I watched a few minutes of The Pelican Brief on my lunch break. A presidential advisor pointed out that something the president has done is obstruction of justice, and the president actually looked frightened. Weird, right?
Laugh to keep from crying.

I fully support your campaign for Queen, Pix, assuming I can be a Lady-in-Waiting (and since she's waiting anyway, the Lady reads a good book or watches some TV).
Atropa, I fully support your campaign as well, but I fear that being a minion would be a bit more labor-intensive than my ideal. No offense.
