And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Continued healing for Batcat, Shir!

I'm barely even on vacation yet and my mother is already driving me crazy, through no fault of her own. So that's fine.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Healing ~ma to Batcat.

Also I had a super weird covid dream this morning where I was running through an airport or something? with Danny Lavery, but I called him his old name??? And I ended up running into Amy Pohler???? Anyway, I almost forgot my mask, but then no one else was wearing one, and it was very stressful.

We'll, that's no fun, Jesse.

I think someone, maybe StephL, posted something, maybe in FB, in the last week or two having to do with scary clowns I had a dream this morning that didn't actually feel scary but involved a serial killer clown on a cruise ship. He figured out that he should take his makeup off so he could just blend in with the other passengers so he wouldn't get caught. His cabin mate was chasing him (and didn't understand why he was running away) as he was running and wiping off his makeup, and he got it off in time. Phew. Thank goodness the serial killer didn't get caught? I guess?

Whereas I had a dream that I was hanging out in a castle with an acquaintance ad she was the nicest sweetest person and I loved hanging out with her. In reality while she seems perfectly nice I don’t know her that well at all!!

I posted a FB memory with a picture of Puddles Pity Party from a concert, but he’s not a scary clown. Although I think my mom commented that he was scary.

He's the really good singer who dresses as a clown, right? Or is a clown who sings well. Not sure how he self-identifies. Yes, I think that's what I was thinking about. I mean, possibly not the only reason I dreamed of a cruise ship serial killer clown, but... ya' know.

We are going to take a ride locally tonight to look at some houses in NoVa that have been identified as worth a look for their (over-the-top, if you believe such a thing is possible) holiday lighting. Identified by a random person on the internet, but she seems to have put a LOT of work into it. I made a google maps trail for us to follow. With an option to continue on past the first hour if we want to. Matt does not seem to think that will be necessary; I like to be prepared.

He was a singer before he added the clown persona, IIRC. It’s certainly one way to stand out from the crowd.
