Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Good Buffista sprog news! And good news for you, askye! Vote, vote like the wind!
I'm camped in my brother's office in Colorado, which has a lovely view of prairie-dog fields and his kids' treehouse. It's pretty warm here, although overcast today. This is my last week here: on Sunday I head back to the Bay. Which it'll be nice to be home and see my nieces, but it's been really nice spending all this time with my nephews, brother & SIL. They have a fairly loose pod, but several adults are doctors, so I'm coasting on their decision-making.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Yay for Matilda getting a school placement!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
That's great, askye!
It's cool enough here that I can stand to have the windows open. Since I'm stuck in my apartment most of the day, it makes a huge difference in how trapped I feel. Here's hoping it can continue for a while.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Anybody know anything about a relief package to buy one lunch or dinner passing? I've got a deposit from the IRS for $15.42. I mean, free money, I guess. But I am bewildered.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Interesting. I'll have to keep an eye on my bank account.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yay, askye!
And also, yay school confirmation! I'm glad Matilda has a friend who's glad to have Matilda as a schoolmate. It's always easier with a buddy.
I was scrolling up the list of thread names, and how is Heaven's Just a Funky Moose Natter from 2008? We need to do redux thread names--greatest hits!

I feel all macho today, I helped my super move the oven this afternoon and even lifted it by myself while he adjusted supports beneath it. (I may be able to cook pizzas and other baked good again. Or possibly burn the building down...)
I also set up the Biden sign my mom bought in her front yard. Friends of hers have had their political signs tampered with, so I positioned this one so that anyone swerving into the yard to mow it down will get to enjoy a collision with either the mailbox (on a 4x4 metal post sunk in concrete) or the raised concrete storm drain. I'll be happy to pay for another sign if some angry Trumper totals their car trying to destroy it.

Ha! Excellent.
