Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

Yay, smonster! Congrats!

In the last couple of days I've planted two hydrangea shrubs and four clusters of liatris spicata in front of my house. We'll see if any of them are hardy enough to survive my care. The nandina I planted last fall seems to have turned a corner and started to thrive, but it's apparently as resilient as ornamental shrubs come.

Congrats, smonster! Also, housing-ma!

Trudy, I am an unapologetic proselytizer for Ghosts. I love it sooo much! I keep telling people, "it sounds like a dumb concept, but it just works!"

It is a day for celebration! Happy birthday to Todd! I hope you are having a delightful day and that the year to come is the best one to date.

Congrats, smonster! This job sounds like the perfect fit for you. Welcome to the next chapter of your life.

Yah, Ghosts is singing! Is there a new season out? I don't remember where it's streaming. Never mind. I can Google.

Hapoy Birthday, Toddson! It's a lovely day for it.

Lanlord visit this morning -- the house is looking spiffy!

If I didn’t say already, yay smonster!

I vaguely saw the northern lights last night out my bedroom window (in a “is that it or a vaguely green cloud?” way). Annoyingly I went to bed on time because I had a 9am appointment and then I got there and found out I had somehow not finished booking it, so I did not, in fact, have an appointment. Argh. Am now at an Art Book Fair, which is not my jam (zines and alternative presses and such) but my friend and her husband who are staying with me are here (he’s an exhibitor). Debating where I could/should go late tonight to see the lights
