I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

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

Fuck, I had to get off FB because nothing but Bernie memes. Tiresome.

I found out the branch of my family headed by my fundie preacher uncle is now basically all suffering Covid-19 at various levels of severity. Hopefully all will fully recover, even the oldest is a good bit younger than my aunt here in town who had it previously.

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

Yeah, I'm done with FB for a bit. I hit my limit with the 96 billionth Bernie meme and was very, very mildly snarky about it and got shat on by someone with a couple hundred thousand followers, a few of whom promptly followed his lead and shat on me, so... done.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'm sorry to hear that, Matt.

Meanwhile, in no Bernie memes: pictures from the town where I lived from 16-19. After Covid hit, the ibex took over. [link]

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

Yikes! I’m sorry, JZ.

And yikes in a different register, Matt. I hope they recover with minimal side effects.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Back to life, back to reality. At the bus stop to go to the airport. It is misting. We had no rain our 5 days here, so glad we had the parks without it.

Good on Bernie’s people for taking charge with image, making Merch and donating proceeds to charity.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

The owner of the salon I go to is watching BtVS for the first time and he has some Feelings about the 90s hair that is happening in S1. I wish we weren't all stuck at home, I would love to hang out at the salon talking about Buffy with him! (And my stylist, and the mutual friends who also get their hair cut there...)

Thinking good thoughts for your family, Matt. I hope they all have an easy course.

The ibex are so adorable!

Our wings are not tired.

I've been somewhat social media absent, and really need to be more absent. I was surprised to be so emotionally exhausted after the Inauguration. The relief depleted me.

Anyway, I need to be super focused on my house. We have a very serious potential buyer with means who wants to meet with us their next visit to my city end of February. This means I have construction projects to finish, and the biggest job, going through about 20 bins that were in storage and are now in the house. DH is dealing with scanning about 180 boxes of medical records that occupy another area of the house. Then they can go to the shredding folks. It is just a lot, but it needs to happen. I so wish that I knew someone local who was good at getting rid of stuff. I have things that would be good for eBay, or Amazon, or consignment shops, but no way I have the time or patience to do it myself. And also I need to go through it all. Sigh. There are things like the china MIL gave us when we were married. The kids don't want it, and I'll probably not use it again. It is just all a lot.
