Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

This too shall pass.

Sheryl, I hope the hospital stay has helped Mr. S, and that they have given you some guidance and tools to help you with his care.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What Laura said, Sheryl. How's it going?

Good luck Sheryl!

Hugs to Maria, that’s so hard.

Anyone got good tricks for a burn? I grabbed a pan handle I didn’t think was hot, and while it’s not the worst burn, it still hurts. I’ve been putting a cool cloth on it but of course as soon as I take it off or it warms up, painful. Any good tricks? Or just “hope I can fall asleep later while clutching an ice cube before it melts”?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

That is my new superhero name, btw: Max A/C!
Sounds pretty cool.

In less fun news, I opened a nearly full bag of cat food to find it full of ants. Ugh, I hate those swarmy little creatures. I've just about made my peace with them outside, where they have a role, but not in my home. Anyway, Javier got to have a breakfast made entirely of treats, so as far as he's concerned it's the best morning ever.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sounds pretty cool.

OMG you guys Covid SUCKS. Like it really, really, sucks.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

OMG you guys Covid SUCKS. Like it really, really, sucks.

That's the rumor. I hope it passes quickly!

We made SMEG coffee this morning and it was delicious.
