ION there was an anti-Kavanagh demonstration going on in front of the courthouse downtown last night as I was leaving work. I mean, this is Cincinnati, OH! Neither very demonstrate-y nor very liberal, tbh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am flying to New York tonight to go to a k-pop concert with a friend from the internet I haven't met yet, and Casper's continuing attitude towards me meeting friends from the internet remains hilarious. This morning's gems included, "Mom, if Chuck [her nickname for my internet friend] turns out to actually be a guy who is catfishing you, and you end up murdered, just know that I loved you."

That is awesome. Is she not interested in meeting internet axe murderers yet?

Our wings are not tired.

Aww, flea. Know that we loved you too.

Had adventure this morning. I never lock my door, but somehow managed to accidentally lock it. First thing this morning my dumb dog managed to get her lead stuck around a tree in the yard so I had to go outside to untangle her. It's in the 30s outside and I have on thin inside pants, a sweatshirt, and crocs. Locked out. I walk next door to step dad's and he isn't home. Consider going to another neighbor's house, but my phone is inside, and heaters are on and so forth.

So, I got a concrete block and a sawhorse from the shed and managed to open a kitchen window and climbed through an opening of maybe 14". The most uncomfortable moment was when I was half in and half out and inadvertently kicked over the sawhorse, knowing the option of being stuck half way for hours was an option. But I managed to drop into the kitchen! And none of my neighbors had to be exposed to my morning hair wacky outfitted self.

Now I am tucked under a blanket warming up. Still only mid 50s inside the house!

Glad to hear it turned out well, Laura. You know now Bendon's going to have to greet you with "Lucy, I'm home!"

She's met plenty of us, though, and we haven't been murder-y at all! We could be playing a super long con, though. (SPOILER: personally, I am not playing a long murder-y con, because I am lazy as hell.)

I was impressed that city council voted to change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day.

Ha! I have good neighbors across the road, but they probably wouldn't have been able to hear me. They would have sheltered me or helped me break in, but in my not yet caffeinated condition I made a rash decision to climb in the window myself. Dog was confused.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Glad you made it, Laura!

Aw, Casper. She knows the invisible people who live in the computer lie her, right?

I'm here for that.

Excellent, they'll be staying with you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah, I was thinking about going to that, but decided not to. I saw a bunch of my friends posting photos from there, though.

That's just what someone playing a long mutder-y con would say! You could easily be the unwitting lure Murderbiscuit is using to bring is all into his murder-y orbit.

Phew, Laura! That sounds like a lot first thing in the morning!

Excellent, they'll be staying with you.

ALL ARE WELCOME.
