Natter 67: Overriding Vetoes
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Other than the human hobbits, who probably arrived on the island on boats, there were no large mammalian predators such as wolves or big cats on Flores at the time. This allowed many species to grow bigger, such as the stork and the giant rats that lived at the same time as the hobbits. "We think the stork moved into the position of being a top predator," Dr Meijer added. "It would have probably fed on the giant rats and even juvenile hobbits, which were the same size as the rats."
Huh.
I definitely should have worn boots today. It wasn't snowing at all when I left the house, but now the snow is so thick that it's completely obscuring the mountain I can usually see from my office window.
Friday! What are people doing this weekend?
Mine's sort of starting early, because I'm working from home today, which means I get to do home stuff when it's not busy, and I have a lot of home stuff to do. Also errands, and laundry, and cleaning.
Weekend: Not a thing. We came back with like $2 in the bank account so we have no money for anything for a couple of weeks.
If I'm not mistaken, there's some McWarringles in the second photo up there.
Yep, that's us! That was a fun Neighborhood Association meeting I tell you whut.
It's been pretty chilly here this week - highs in the upper 40s- but it looks like next week will be more in the 60s, so yay. I am tired of wearing socks all the time.
I hate winter.
I have so many weekend plans! Date tonight, vet in the morning, then to the parents' where I will bake cookies with my mother and/or take my father Christmas shopping, to be followed by Family Dinner, because Sunday afternoon, we'll be at an event. Sunday morning laundry, etc.

Makes me want to hop a Southwest flight this weekend, but as mentioned before, we're brokeasses.
