Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I... don't actually have a Twitter. I guess I could get one. I'm not sure if my next communication with him should be an Official Scary Letter, or something less formal.

Because books.

Official Scary Letter. If he doesn't answer email, he'll ignore a tweet.

Yeash, Holli. That's infuriating.

Confession time: I've had pangs to get another cat. I know it for what it is, not really another cat, just MK back. There's a MK shaped hole in this house. It'll shrink, and I truly have no desire to have 4 cats, it's just grief. Cause god knows I'm full with the three now, especially since Devi's become extra-affectionate (not sure if she's picking up on me or the integration of Pumpkin, finally) and so it isn't as if I am wont for feline attention (Pumpkin LOVES toilet flushes. So not only do I get captive audience attention, she sticks around for that.)

But man, my brain is squirrelly.

Please let no strays cross my path for a while.

Thrive to spite them

So I think in addition to the kitten I'm trading one of my recliners for a couch my neighbor doesn't want. It's not a great couch, but it's a couch where Will and I can actually sit next to each other and uncomfortably cuddle, rather than just pulling recliners close and holding hands.

Plus the recliner I'm tradiing is one that's been in the family for a long time and has been passed around because it belonged to my great grandmother and even though it's ugly and only semi comfortable no one wanted to get rid of it.

Holli that magazine is horrible. I hope you can get scary letter!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

So you get a kitty and couch in exchange for offloading family baggage nobody can properly deal with? WIN!

It seems like a win!

I have an irrational blindspot that makes me think it is absolutely magical and can be taken from me if I step on a crack or say something mean about the Pope.

If talent worked that way I wouldn't have been able to draw a stick figure since Pope Sidious was inaugurated.
