So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

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

Filed my tax returns - getting Federal and State refunds which is nice. I think I may have made a mistake with my capital loss carryover but I am not going to worry about it today.

That's awful that you have to worry about someone using your loss like that, Gris.

If you've been seeing "lesbian reincarnation AU" trending, it may be because of this:

It's not as good as the Renault commercial, but it's not bad.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I find Emily Nussbaum confusing: was she a Buffista actually? Or maybe just Buffista-adjacent? Because when ita died someone (I forget who) told her, and her reaction was on the order of, "I don't know that person but I'm sorry for your loss."

Also, thank you everyone!

I'm reacting ok to the shot, other than a little tired and sore. But not unusually so. Everyone says the 2nd shot has a much bigger effect.

ooooh, my bread-maker is nearly done and the house smells of fresh bread, NOM.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

An occasional poster somewhere along the way, I'm sure. emilyn?

EmilyN posted at Table Talk early on but she was already gone, I think, by the time we really coalesced as a community. So it’s not that surprising that she wouldn’t have remembered ita/buffistas 15 years later. That’s my sense of things, anyway. She was gone before I was around.

ION we’re getting a puppy tomorrow and I’m a little overwhelmed. I feel like I’m the only one being realistic about how much work she is going to be. (10 weeks or so, maybe chocolate lab/Newfoundland, mostly black with a white front like our #1 cat, cute, enormous, baby.)

That sounds right.

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

I remember emilyn being active in the Firefly thread but didn't stick around very long after that.

[edit: after it was canceled, I mean]

Omg flea!! Having just been through it...good luck? At least there are four of you? Recommendation: even if you feel like you’re taking a ridiculous amount of photos, take more. And video. They grow so quickly!

Mine, meanwhile, may have an infection in his incision from neuter surgery :( sent a photo to the vet and they said to pick up antibiotics tomorrow and if it gets worse call them. Nooo! (He’s acting perfectly fine)
