Art Crawl!!!

Was someone here wishing for an app that could find a bird by a vague description?

Because one exists. It is the Merlin Bird I D map from the Cornell Ornithology Lab. Currently it only has more common bird species but they're hoping to add more over time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oooh. I don't know if I was the one asking about it, but I could sure use that. Thanks!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I went to TJs this am without a thought to the Superbowl, and it was fine. Easy parking even!

Tomorrow I'm going to the Santa Barbara International Film Festival to see my friend's movie! She's my stretch teacher, but she's also a Chech film star in her AU life. Which she gets to actually live (unlike myself, who is a teacher at Hogwarts in my AU life.)

Thrive to spite them

The Hallmark Channel is having a Kitten Bowl this year.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

We went to TJs, which shares a parking lot with a David's Bridal. I have never had trouble parking there, not even the day before Thanksgiving. But today was horrible. I thought we'd have to shank someone for a parking spot. When we finally parked and went in, though, there was a normal amount of shoppers. So we decided maybe David's Bridal was having a $99 sale or something.

Kittens versus puppies!

I love that TJs is famous for parking lot hell ALL OVER THE COUNTRY! How did they not fix that before going national?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I suspect designing inadequate parking lots is part of TJ corporate strategy to save money on real estate. Same with Arco, opposite with In n Out.

Eta: even the one in the valley is bad.

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

Our new TJ's has a huge parking lot! Shared with Pier One.

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

Heh - TJ's in NYC solves that problem by simply not having parking lots.
