I have been looking for examples of irony to use with my students because they are not all getting it.
well, they think that it's a black fly in their chardonnay or 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.
I fell down and got confused. Willow fixed me. She's gay.

Huh. the HTML page didn't pop up in a new window and it ate my post.
Anyway. I had a day. Getting some stuff cleaned up for Thanksgiving. Made some more zucchini bread -- have to buy new sugar soon, and I just bought a little bag a month ago! Usually it takes me YEARS to go through a bag of sugar.
I had a melt-downy day yesterday; no emergencies, but....uh. It's here if you want to read the whole damn thing, because I ain't typing it again.
But today was better, so...
And now, I try to get to bed. Last 2 or 3 night have been hard to get to sleep because of stress monsters.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Guys, the first part of my secret santa present was delivered yesterday!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A Circular Bookshelf Seat
I'm not sure why it needs the lights on it. They're just taking away space that could be used by more books.

Because books.
But the lights make it COOL. That's awesome. I would have wanted that in my room as a kid.

ITA. Also, I want that in my room as an adult.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You can't see the books from where you're sitting. Fail! Redo! Back to the drawing board.
Okay, I'm off to the office with my little smidge of coffee grounds and my huge air purifier. I've called into my migraine specialist to tell him about the environmental downturn, but I don't know what good that can do, because I severely doubt he'll give me more pain meds--I'm on his last nerve currently. But at least he knows.

Because books.
I was thinking that right after I hit post, tommy. Although I would have to fight Sara and Ben to sit in it.
Give him hell, ita.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, that thing looks cooler than it would be to use, I think. It sure does look cool, though!
Are there like guidelines for the Secret Santa? Dollar or other?
Usually it takes me YEARS to go through a bag of sugar.
Yeah, it's kind of silly how surprised I am to have to buy flour and sugar all the time, once I started baking...
You guys, I am exhausted.
