The Mets just signed left-handed pitcher Dicky Lovelady to their roster
That is for sure a baseball name if I've ever heard one!
I'm more than half convinced that there is a time traveling baseball player on an important mission from 1904.
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I also celebrated your b'day with take-out sushi!
I have survived 24 years in Chicago without AC and the last two days have given me pause. I'm used to having a week or two of this in August. Not June. I may have to give in for the sake of my poor 20 yr old cat. I can't seem to convince her to lay on anything damp or cold.

I am endlessly jealous of people in California who can just walk outside and pick an avocado from their own magical avocado tree.
Growing up in Florida we had a magical mango tree in our backyard that produced incredibly flavorful fruit by the bushel. More than we could eat, really.

... I might have been a bit more excited about the appearnt ceasefire if it weren't for the non stop "get ready to get to shelter" emergency messages we were starting to get over an hour ago, at 5:11am local time (these are the pre siren notices).
I returned the cat back to the carrier twice by now and I think he'll might murder me if he gets a chance.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Where was I reading that series of short stories about a time traveling baseball player? Possibly a whole team. It was time travel, I’m almost sure. Definitely baseball.
Hang in there cats with unusually bad stuff happening in your environments. And humans.
