Years ago, I lived in a small garden apartment complex close to a park. There had been reports of racoons with rabies, which led to my sister being terrified of coming by my apartment, especially at night. (It also led to suggestions that someone create a comic/graphic of The Adventures of Rabid Raccoon ... which never came about.)
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?
'Safe'
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Awwww. I was subscribed to Ranger Rick's Nature Magazine when I was a kid. [link] I have vague but fond memories of that.
Not at all the same, but have you guys heard of the Rocket City Trash Pandas? [link]
They are a minor league baseball team: [link]
I like their logo and their merch designs: [link]

What is even happening?
The passage of time freaks me out: Tickybox turns SIXTEEN today.
That hit like a ton of bricks, along with Cashmere's Owen turning 17, two days ago.
We're old. I mean, wasn't RLiz (or maybe Madrigal, or maybe both) about that age in the early days?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dang. The passage of time has no respect for my feelings.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Popping in very quickly with a request (that I will cross-post with Tech): Facebook has disabled my account and given me 30 days to request a review. Does anyone have tips or tricks to get it back? Thanks.

She does? (We aren't friends on FB -- not through any kind of animosity; just not staying in touch over time). That's awesome!

Nope. I refuse to believe this.

Or this.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh no!! I have no idea, Maria, but that's crazy.
Both Tickybox and Owen birthdays have me shaking my head despite my youngest being a father. Time, she does fly.
Speaking of birthdays, the lovey Nilly sent me her master list of birthdays and anniversaries and so forth to keep up since she hasn't been able to do so. I meant to put something in Press because it is somewhat out of date, but the Tickybox and Owen birthdays were there, as well as some anniversary dates. I've only sent birthday wishes to active Buffistas, and not the kids. Anyway, I'll put something in Press later.
