Thank you for the congratulations, all, and congratulations in turn for all the other anniversary couples.
For our anniversary, Aims will pop a percocet and pass out trying to get over this sinus/ear thing.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Kat, that was a very Lake Woebegone response from your dad.
Liese, you might be surprised. During monsoon in LC, we'd get toad tadpoles in every single body of water. They've got a really fast life cycles. Plus, I think some burrow really deep during the season, in dry spells between storms. They have to, since every storm would bring this incredible cacophony of toads looking to get it on.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Regarding the TiVo(and it is a TiVo, not a Comcast DVR), there has been a recurring problem where it records the wrong channel. We thought we had fixed it by putting a doodad on the input cable that had been forgotten when we reconfigured things after the digital converter box got set up. Apparantly, that wasn't it. I have set it to record a repeat of the ep later this week, but it's very annoying.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
So cool to spot tadpoles!
Even though my parents' backyard is kind of a typical suburban lawnscape devoid of much biodiversity, I saw a praying mantis this morning and it was so cool!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Dear My Cousin:
Telling your family your wedding date less than two months out? Suboptimal. Especially when you're expecting your 91 year old grandmother to be there.

Edit: Actually, the timing just gives grandmother plenty of time to be in a tizzy. It does mean that other people might have conflicts, though.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
OMFG, I am done. I still need to mop the floor, and clean out and organize the closet, but I will do that tomorrow.
So much better; it was such a filth pit this morning, and I am not kidding at all.
I'm gonna drink some ice water, finish this smoke and then take a long, cool shower. Then I will take pictures, because I am so happy with how it looks. (Yeah, I'd love to paint and change the window shades, but this was a sweat-equity only room makeover -- we're strapped.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
you can often get paint on freecycle or craigslist for free. If you are patient, you can probably get the color you want.

That's a good idea, msbelle, but I will paint the hallway to upstairs, the kitchen and the downstairs powder room before this room. The kitchen is a hideous green; I'll take a few snaps of it too. HATES IT.

Wow, really? That's so cool.
Potato-leek soup is on the stove. The other beets will have to wait until tomorrow.
