I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Bad news, losing my sense of taste, which I avoided last time I had COVID. Good news, got an offer on the Dallas house already for our listing price (which was pretty reasonable).

The status is NOT quo.

So I immediately replaced my pillows when I got back home.
What brand??

Sorry to hear about Mr. S. Food poisoning is the worst.

Good news about the house, Dana!

I too want to hear about super nice pillows!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Matilda is lobbying hard to adopt a dog she's fallen in love with in Japan and bring it home. That seems dauntingly difficult from a logistical standpoint

It's not that hard to import to the U.S. If it is every only a logistical issue, I can walk you through it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm in a deeply committed relationship with my shredded memory foam pillow, but those look verrrra nice.

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

The sun wouldn't rise until after 8 in the winter here if we stayed on DST all the time, so that's a hard no for me.

Ugh, please no. Winter is depressing enough already.

I bought some medium-expensive shredded memory foam pillows from Brooklinen a few years ago, and I adore them. (I think I read somewhere that you're supposed to replace pillows at least once a year? Does anyone actually do that??)

I have found I am not a memory foam fan, whether shredded or intact. Too bouncy on the one hand and not malleable enough on the other. (Also, is there a pea under this mattress? I barely slept a wink.)

New couch being delivered today! It was both an impulse buy and a long overdue replacement for the current couch. Which is unfortunately still in the living room so it’s gonna be tight around here for a minute until we make sure we’re sold on the new one and figure out how to get someone to take the old one off our hands.

Currently bracing for the full scale living room redesign that I expect this will prompt. Which is probably long overdue also.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Ooof, poor Mr. S. I just went through the same thing in the middle of the last night. At least it didn’t happen during the con.

Plei, I’ve said it elsewhere, but just say the word and I will rally the metalhead handyman crew.
