We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Is it weird that I sort of want to introduce an old friend from grad school who teaches at Tulane to our NO Buffistas?

I'm cool with it. Could you do a fb message with both of us? I've done that a number of times.

Uh. There was more but I lost it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Wetware links are so unreliable.

The cat tree is here! It smells funny. Outgassing from the new carpet, I'm sure. Leo has been sacked out for hours in the very top bunk, probably high on fumes. When I go by he looks at me sleepily and thinks, "I am taller than you!" Percy the Emo Cat is suspicious of the new thing, but I bet pretty soon he'll be on it too. He better; I didn't buy the damn expensive thing for just one cat to sleep on. shakes fist at cat

The delivery guy not only did not bring it inside, he didn't even wait for the tip I was going to give him. He parked this huge 6-foot-plus package on my porch, said he was in a hurry, and left. Well. So I ripped off the cardboard and wrestled the thing inside myself. So there. Didn't need help after all. iamwomanhearmeroar

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It should not be in the upper 60s on Feb. 1 in Maryland. That just seems wrong to me.

It's 41 in Utah. People went waterskiing yesterday.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It sounds like heaven to me.

Thrive to spite them

It was raining today. Instead of snowing.

My town postponed the Winter Carnival until first weekend in March, hoping there will be snow then. The Parks and Rec dept has had to cancel all the winter activities because there's nothing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yup, -t got it in one. Apparently he started writing it out, and decided that retyping it wasn't efficient, so he just walked a handwritten message to me instead.

I'm used to hand-drawn. Luckily his handwriting, well, it's kinda pretty actually.

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

The Parks and Rec dept has had to cancel all the winter activities because there's nothing.

Ours did too - there was supposed to be a Winter Jam in Prospect Park last weekend with sledding and hot chocolate and whatnot, and the Parks Dept canceled it not just because there was no snow, but because it was too warm to make fake snow!

Today I ran a ton of errands on my lunch hour and had my coat stashed in a bag over my shoulder. It was heaven, but I suspect we'll be paying for it in February.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It's been in the high 60s here the last two days. It's weird.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I have daffodils and flowering quince in bloom, and I saw a Japanese magnolia ready to bloom a few days ago. I'm expecting there'll be stretch of 20-degree days this month to wipe out every spring flower.
