I don’t actually know what verb would apply to what they were doing, and I am still uncertain of the gender of either, but the immediately identifiable Gimpy and the squirrel with cowlicks in the right places and a bald bit behind the left elbow that I b’lieve is the now-lumpless Lumpy, were hangin’ out […]

There are currently two northern flickers on my feeder! (And a bunch of disgruntled bluebirds on my railing.) Actually, you couldn’t say they’re both on the feeder–one is, and the other is watching him grumpily from farther up the tree. They don’t seem to want to feed simultaneously, although the flicker will allow a downy […]
I’m not dead. There were a coupla points, ‘long around Sunday night, where this did not seem like much of a consolation, mind you. But nevertheless, the fever appears to have broken, and despite being fairly congested, and feeling as if my head was swathed in gauze, I’m definitely on the road to recovery. Earlier […]
I, too, have the plague. Woke, coughed, cursed, assessed physical condition…my skin has that raw, prickly feel I associate with fever, as if the top layer had sloughed off, and possibly crawled into my lungs to sit as congestion. (Yes, it’s disgusting. It feels disgusting, too.) Well. We’ll see how James is today–still got a […]

There’s a zit inside my nose. It’s in the sort of position tucked up in the cartilage where there is no way to, y’know, help it on it’s way without actually turning my nose inside out, which I think would be difficult to reverse afterwards. And it is sore. And being that I have allergies […]
James has the plague. Well, he has something. Lack of buboes would indicate that it might be a little premature calling it the plague, but I’m keeping an eye out anyway. He’s hacking and coughing a lot, running fever that wanders between 99 and 102, and generally feels like crap. I’ve got him drinking lots […]
http://in.news.yahoo.com/050116/139/2j1rp.html I was looking for something pithy and biting to say, and I find that I have nothin’. What’s left to say? Most religiously inclined organizations in the area are doubtless doing good and commendable work, but shit like this is why I make sure my donations go to secular relief organizations just in case.
I just got porn spam offering me “Men With Huge Chimneys.” I like to think I have a dirty mind, but I was left staring blankly at the screen thinking “What, like…brick or industrial smokestacks or something?”
Had a dream last night. Most of it was that standard anxiety dream that I know a lot of us get (and hate) where there are lots of animals in cages starving to death and it’s all your fault. I have this one about once a year, I think, generally when I’m overworked and have […]
