Very pretty tiara.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Happy birthday, roomie! May there be treats.

That tiara is lovely.

Since a road trip is off the cards for the foreseeable, I spent yesterday repotting some of the herbs, cleaning the deck and setting the furniture up again, aka "a PNW rain invocation". The LED candles are pretty, though.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

That is an excellent tiara.

Love the tiara, Hec! Who doesn't want to get a forest fairy tiara to celebrate the arrival of spring?

Except here, where it's so "cold" I'm making split pea soup in the slow cooker. If this keeps up, I may have to dip into my cassoulet reserves.

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

That site has some really cool stuff.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I am not big on jewelry, but when I completed my last round of chemo I gave in to temptation and bought myself this: [link]

The head is the clasp, and is very subtle, and I really like the ouroboros effect.

Our wings are not tired.

Nice, dcp! Yes, you should reward yourself.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I caught a brief bit of video (can't link to it) of a young gymnast doing a vault and, after nailing the landing, he pulls out his vaccination card and waves it around (seemingly to encourage everyone to get the vaccine).

See? all the cool kids are doing it!

Toddson I saw that clip too! Super adorable!
