You know what's weird? I would have been prepared if it was a zombie, but I have no coyote plan.
BWAH! Love this, so much (because it's TRUE.)
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hec's leftovers stories are making me even more sad that I didn't host T-day this year.
Next time I'm 35 weeks pregnant during the holidays, I'm damn well cooking a turkey anyway. (Throwing a latke party next weekend would be insane, right? Even though it would require me to eat massive quantities of fried potatoes?)

My stuffin' muffins came out great, btw. I even had to take pictures of them they looked so pretty.
And they were very easy to do since I had all the ingredients lying around after cooking Thanksgiving.
Now I can send a couple in with JZ for her lunch with a side of the rich, sherry laced veggie gravy.

The status is NOT quo.
Allyson, if you and K want to run away but can't make it all the way to the cabin, you are more than welcome to join our annual urban family Thanksgiving next year. We always have a great time, and it's no drama with good food. Just throwing it out there.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
One summer I found myself about 10 feet away from a young coyote. I said, "Oh, hello. Where did you come from?" and he whirled around to look at me, then ran away.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Whoa, Allyson. That's cool, yet scary.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Eek!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I know it hurts still, Allyson, but I'm now extra glad you brought Oliver in.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Yeah, I don't think coyotes are scarifying. They're always out and about at my parents' place, and where I run. They're easy to scare off. (This is oddly the second time I've mentioned this this weekend).
So, picked up the cats from boarding for the first time and cool-as-a-cucumber Kripkat escaped. Thrice. Not sure what we'll do about Christmas.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I've seen mountain lions and bobcats at JPL. The deer just walk up to you and say, "hey, how ya doin? got any apples?"
We're super urban, here, and he was just a few feet away from me. Freaked me out.
There's another freeze advisory. In a just world, Oliver would be stuffing himself full of leftover turkey and then napping front of the heater. I just washed his blanket.
Mona is curled up with her head in my lap, and Ruby is curled up in her basket. I sprinkled crumbled bacon from breakfast in their kibble this morning.
They're going to live forever, you know.
