Timelies all!

I don't get to sleep in on the weekends anymore. I have to get up at 7 to give Nova her medication, and even if that doesn't wake Mr. S, my brain usually decides it's awake, and I can't fall back to sleep.

Today was an annoying morning, in that I woke up early and my brain did its thing. Nova started meowling a bit before 7 and then Mr. S woke up and it was all over then.

I did it! Mouse is out of toilet! I grabbed it with a ziplock bag and put in a paper bag and then in a garbage bag.

Well done! Bye bye mouse.

I apparently have birds that have nested in my walls/attic/somewhere. I don't see where they got in. Probably need to call some pest person. I don't want DH to go up on the roof because he would crack the tiles. Anyway, I hear the chirping and it makes me nuts.

Good job, Sophia!

Way to go, Sophia!

askye - the blurriness of headlights at night can be an early sign of cataracts. Best to get it checked out.

You have to wonder why all facts that we should remember forever are not taught as catchy little songs. Schoolhouse Rock went a long way, but why not more of that?

My brother recently texted me an xkcd where the US map had 10 states strategically removed and asked whether I could figure out which ones were missing. In less than 5 minutes I had. He asked how I did it, had I cheated. And I said that no, i just know all 50 states in alphabetical order so I just went down the list. He thought that knowing all 50 states in alphabetical order sounded crazy - I replied that it was a song for 6th grade graduation, so I will know them forever.

Yay, Hil!

dcp - if this were FB, I would be giving you *such* a hearteyes emoji right now!

I participated in a work trivia game on Thursday. I had the highest score on the Harry Potter section, and the second highest in the Friends section. And...just okay on every other section.
