Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Phew! I'm glad of that. We should do a little housecleaning. Because there's good history back in there.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Sadly that KStew/Aubrey Plaza movie had much more chemistry between the two of them and not so much with the girl who was supposed to be Kstews gf.
My Instagram feed universally refers to this movie as "watching KStew choose the wrong lesbian."

This weekend, my family got to experience the full range of Christmas-related theater (featuring main characters who fall asleep and have Christmas-related dreams) - on Friday, we went up to Beacon to see How David Lynch Stole Christmas, an immersive/experimental David Lynch-themed Christmas Carol and then last night we saw a very traditional (but lovely!) Nutcracker. I wish the David Lynch show was traveling or around for longer because I think many Buffistas would have loved it!
We also ate exceptionally well yesterday. I made this Everything Salmon with Caper Sauce with asparagus and latkes and while the rest of us were at the ballet, Dylan made Yorkshire Puddings and creme anglais for dessert! (He cooked the puddings in duck fat left over from Thanksgiving and they were AMAZING. Serving them for dessert might be nontraditional but I'm not at all mad about it.)

Oooh, both sound fantastic!
I woke up to an absolute downpour which discouraged running, but now it's stopped and I'm sorry I ate breakfast already. But I was hungry!
I did a shit ton of online shopping yesterday which immediately got my debit card flagged by my bank. C'mon! It's not a red flag that I'm buying items for $60.
Tomorrow I have to jaunt over to Sausalito to do my expedited Passport, but I have everything lined up. I just need to double check everything today and I'll have a new Passport before 2025.

Dang, that menu sounds delish to me!!
I do not want to be working but I especially don’t want to be doing all my usual weekly things PLUS the things people are freaking out about because they realized it has to happen early this week or nobody will do anything about it until January.

I do hope I had trenchant commentary, Hec. It's always good when past me turns out not to have been stupid.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
IJWTS it is weird to come here on Monday morning and realize that not only have I not been posting from my phone all weekend I actually was not reading. It's weird because I guess I have been having mental conversations with y'all? Maybe my effort to try and follow bluesky is confusing me. I don't have any illusion that I will keep up with it in any meaningful way, but I'm trying to get used to checking in on it with some regularity
Was not as online as usual because I spend I went to the annual holiday tea at the local city museum with my mom on Saturday and ended up hanging out with the folks all day and having dinner. And hibernated yesterday, what with the rain and cold and having been social although I did not realize I was hibernating quite that thoroughly

That salmon looks like something I will now try, yum!
Friend's open house yesterday was fun. This is one of the four of us who go out the b-day dinners and have know each other since our early twenties working at the same law firm. I still boggle that this group found each other so randomly and stayed connected lo' these 35 years hence. Lucky, is what.
-t, you just reminded me about bluesky!

Our wings are not tired.
To share better health news - Scans of my bones look much better than they feel! Age ranking at 111%-137% of bones my age, so better than most. Not all the pictures are in but the nicest line so far was "fall risk not calculated because scores above -1" So I guess I can climb all the ladders without risk of breaking stuff when I fall! (note that I have no plans to climb ladders)
