Try coring them, filling the holes with cinnamon graham cracker crumbs and sugar, putting a pat of butter on top, and baking them. Inside-out apple mini pies!
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Mmmmmmmmmm, graham cracker crumbs! I haven't tried that yet. Next up!!!

Hey. New board.
I voted, it felt nice. And in a real state where it might kind of matter!
(Minnesota. Previously, my president votes have been in the differently meaningless states of California, New York, and Tennessee. Though my city council and school board votes in TN mattered at least!)

I just filed out my ballot, and now need to go swing past a ballot box sometime in the next couple weeks. Yay! My presidential vote doesn't do much, but might be an interesting lieutenant governor race?
Also I just turned on my fireplace. I don't want to turn on my heat, it has been unusually warm here, but it's cold right now. Wondering how the puppy will feel about the fire place, yay or nay??

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
SIGH. The roommate got stuck on the toilet, that is, once she'd sat down on it, her knee gave out and she was afraid that she'd pass out from pain if she tried pushing herself up with it, which would turn a bad situation into a worse one.
After an hour, I insisted on calling 911, and the nice firemen were able to get her up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh man, that must have been scary for her and for you! Firefighters are good for that kind of thing IME, as long as you open the door for them so they don't attack it with axes.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We went to a state park so Mr. S could run around, and hiked a trail to a waterfall. Nice day for it, but I am sooo tired now.

Yikes, Theo, that is no good. I'm glad you called 911.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
My dentist has a flatscreen on the ceiling--in every treatment room!--Netflix, and he hands you the remote if you want it. I usually just watch the aquarium fish on the screensaver. Color! Movement! Pretty! No engagement necessary!
So scary, Theo. I hope she recovers okay. Time for a raised toilet seat for her?

What is even happening?
I voted today. It feels so good to have gotten it out of the way. I brought my little RBG figurine with me, in my jacket pocket.
We applied for mail-in ballots, so we filled them out at home, masked up, and took them to our early voting site, where we turned them in (the town clerk's office at Town Hall).
There were people there, voting at the little voting carrels, but we got to bypass them and turn in our envelopes.
Because we turned in our mail-in ballots, we can still track them online. They haven't shown up as received yet, but I'm sure they do that processing later. I'll be keeping an eye on it. I actually know the woman to whom I submitted my ballot, if it comes down to it, and I have to raise Hell (I don't think I will).
