Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went to a birthday party for a family friend where we sang a bunch of songs she has written, and it was great! I've got to figure out how to get more music into my life.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I don't have an earthquake kit!

To clarify, our supplies consist of a jug of water and a bunch of candles. It's not what any sane person would call a kit, at least not without giggling.

So pretty much the same as our winter snow storm kit.

Compassionately intolerant

My favorite font is Calibri, and after that, Arial. My eyes aren't as sharp as I could wish, and if I can go sans serif, things are clearer and easier for me to read.

Beverly and I are, again, the same person.

I continued a kitchen reorg I started yesterday that saw me toss 23 bottles of old spices. I charged down to the local spice shop to replace the dust-old flavorings.

Then, I filed a complaint with the company after being shined on by the solo staff person who seemed to only be able to serve the folks half my age, while telling me how it would only be 2 more minutes. After 20 minutes, I gathered my apothecary bottles and left.

Middle aged invisibility...activated!

Otherwise, it was a great day and I'm headed off for a pine Kneipp bath. Sooo relaxing.

Yeah, that's pretty much my hurricane season kit.

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

From way back, I'm one of those people who honestly has no idea what ball is in season at any given time.

I know when it's baseball season because that's when my Dad starts talking about baseball at me, and I eventually figure out when football is on because that's when all of a sudden my FB feed makes no sense.

Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah, there are times on the internet where I'm like Football or Game of Thrones. They are both bloody, but one has bigger words. but I don't follow either

She reads sort of nuts, Jesse. Was she like that IRL?

I'll be working up til the day before my funeral. I have money put aside, but I just don't see retirement happening.

I'm home alone this evening. It has been a laugh riot. I have painted my nails, nuked some dinner, and shopped online. I'm sitting on the floor topless cause I spilled dinner on my shirt and decided to just pop it in the washer before the stain could set. Next up, hang some pictures and rearrange some others.

Tomorrow K-Bug and I are going to the Stock Show and Rodeo.
