Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

How exciting Aimee! I like the yard!

Dog is being barky and whiny again tonight, even though we went to the dog park for almost an hour. So annoyed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nice place, Aims! Also I love Zingerman's.

Yum, Jen!

Our wings are not tired.

Lovely new home, Aims!

Yummy, Jen. I'm going to have to try that.

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

COVID-19 nasopharyngeal swab PCR test results just posted: negative

Wow, that was quick. They told me "it could be a couple of days," but it was only eight hours.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Good job.

dcp - wow, that was fast, and, more importantly, yay for the negative result.

Aims, I love the yard and the sun room especially. (Why, yes, I find our apartment dark and without a yard. Why do you ask?)

I'll have to check out Zingerman's. I'm finding myself paralyzed with respect to ordering gifts right now, which is not helpful. I don't have a ton to do, but... you know, some forward momentum on that would be nice. I did buy Christmas cards today, because they were right in front of my face and 50% off.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yay for negativity, dcp!

And, wow, Aims, that place is wonderful. The window seat! The tree with a bench all the way around it! So many good spots to curl up and read.

What is even happening?

Aims, that house is adorable. Enjoy.

Yay for testing negative in a positive way, dcp!

Wow dcp that is fast--I thought our ~22 hour turnaround was quick!

Thrive to spite them

Aims that house is so cute! love the sunroom/porch and the tree and the window seat.

Windy, I understand where you are coming from with a lack of alone time. M and his mom are here all the time and they can be so loud. and when M gets excited or happy or is playing Xbox HE GETS REALLY LOUD. AND THEN EVEN LOUDER and I spend a lot of time with headphones on listening to stuff in the other room or with the window a/c unit on full blast. Occasionally I have kicked them out.. well encouraged them to go to the store or take a drive or something just so I can have time alone.
