It’s too hot for my cat to want to cuddle on top of me as he usually does but he is lying next to me with one arm extended and his little claws gripping into my pajamas💗

Bestie made it better

So I was thinking all along that I don’t like people of a certain political stripe and that’s true but mostly I think I just don’t like people.

I did what I could

Fivehead

So, Egon, the cat we rescued from winter cold & who has been living in our sunroom has FIV. We understand it’s not transmitted casually to other cats but it’s still a bummer. We will likely introduce her to the rest of the household soon to see how they behave & make sure there is no fighting

Sometimes when Bestie tells a mildly naughty joke I pretend not to understand so she has to explain it. So much funnier

I just ran DOWN the stairs. If you haven’t had creaky old knees maybe you don’t understand what an accomplishment this is. Does this mean I can stop doing reverse lunges?

Is this a mole

A tall glass of cool water with a splash of Welch’s grape juice is my new summertime concoction

There was this TV show where the female main character had a thing with a priest and then there was vampire show where there was a similar scene and now they’re mashed together in my memory

Lookit my perfect swirl

Deer tick. Pinky for scale

What was that TV show where the guy was time traveling and he was some kind of a cop in the 1970s and then you get to the end and it turns out he was had been in suspended animation during a long space journey?

Fitness mostly likes my sister but here she is being a cat

What’s this we shit

I am sitting in the driveway in my car watching a robin in the rain try to pick up a very fat worm and he or she is really struggling and it looks like their mate is coming to help. Nope. The mate just came over to yell at him to hurry up

fat tongue

I remember once trying to explain to a man who wanted a MEANINGFUL sexual relationship that you couldn’t really have that unless you knew each other well and were committed to the ugly parts as well as the good parts. 1/

I gave myself vertigo to take this picture

It probably violates leave no trace but I picked up a sprouted acorn from a state park trail yesterday & brought it home to my man and said will you plant this in a pot for me and he said yes we will call it the 1/

Look at this potato I painted!

Dude. DUDE. I always shower after even a short hike to check for ticks. So tell me why at the crack of dawn I just scratched and found one and flung it before I could think. Then I had to turn on my flashlight to find it on the floor. Not a deer tick and not embedded but still

It’s going to be in the 60s and rainless this afternoon so I will try to get my oldest to hike with me for a couple of hours after work. And if he doesn’t want to I’ll still go. I hope I get some sun because my eyeballs could use it

I forgot to mention that I asked to have my name removed from the website of the organization I work for a couple of weeks ago and it was done practically overnight, no questions asked.

I try not to talk about the weather but I’m fucking freezing and I am not turning the heat back on. It’s gonna be like 90 in four days so check back in for those complaints

Mostly flat out and back alone after work. 3.5-ish miles total. Misty and pretty and peaceful.

It costs $10k to thru hike the Appalachian Trail? gtfo

Any bread people here? If a loaf of bread is rolled up before being put in the pan, what is the trick to keep it from separating once it is baked?

A fun conversation about an otc medication combo that some people are taking to treat some symptoms of menopause/perimenopause:

I told my sister that Snake must be feeling better because he’s sitting in the kitchen cleaning his butt hole

The problem with homemade bread is that it tastes too good

My sister has developed a cinnamon raisin bread addiction. Pepperidge Farm loves to see us coming. Anyway, I’ve got some homemade rising. Cross your fingers, light a candle

Guys his date is freaking beautiful. She was sitting in the passenger seat of her brother’s car and my boy walked up to it and smiled at her and opened the door for her and helped her out

My senior prom theme & song was “Never Say Good-bye.” Guess the year

I just got “and who are your people“ from the florist.🤣

OK I ordered a quickie wrist corsage for my son‘s prom date tonight. I wish we could’ve chosen something a little more custom and exotic but off the rack is what you get when you leave things to the last minute.

I shaved my legs and colored my grays and as cliché as it is, performing femininity feels nice sometimes

OMG he has a date. I’M SO EXCITED!!!!

I need a glow up. I’m considering shaving my legs

I think it’s so funny that my nerdiest kid is the least self-conscious and the most easy conversationalist. And he is the only one of my kids who has ever wanted to go to prom and get dressed up for prom. Of course I didn’t find out that he wanted to go to prom tomorrow until this morning so…

Who will win the second war between the states?

*sigh* listening to an audiobook that started out with promise and isn’t terribly written but got schmaltzier and more like Christian propaganda as the chapters went by

A lot of people are even weirder and more socially inept on the Internet than they are in real life and that is really saying something

And now I’m thinking about those good luck charms a lot of the men wore when I was a kid. This is definitely a culture/subculture kind of thing. New York Italian in the 70s, 80s, 90s. I don’t know if they are still commonly worn. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornice...

Last night I dreamt of cornichon. Except in my dream I thought a cornichon was a small chicken. Of course in the waking world they are pickles. My brain probably got them confused with Cornish hens. Anyway, I woke up hungry
