Sounds like a fair exchange!

Those base layers were such a good deal, I need to grab more while they still have them.

Yeah, I recently got a Costco membership and just came to terms with the fact that I will need to have like five things I *must get* in my head and then after I lose steam i will just get out as soon as possible.

We did a good job on getting our needed items last time! Then I got overwhelmed.

Were they the Alt account that started doing the numbers thing?

I saw that and noped out.

Growly always pushing the "if I fits I sits" boundaries

Growly, a calico cat, is sitting in a box that is too small for her, facing away from the camera. Part of her body is hanging over the edge of the box.

Oh no, I hope the mirtazapine helps! I have had good luck with it jump starting my old lady's appetite. Keeping my fingers crossed for you and her! 🫂

Good luck, I hope it goes well.

I wound up putting my boy on medication for awhile because he was just SO AGGRO.

Always good to have those in your back pocket, because not eating doesn't help anything.

...made a point of teaching us safety, when we weren't on the trampoline we were around it spotting for whoever was on it, and he made us promise when we signed up for the class not to get on OTHER trampolines. So maybe we were being saved from the trampoline menace by learning how to do backflips.

I grew up in San Francisco and I don't know anyone who had a backyard trampoline (even of people who actually had backyards). That said, I DID take trampoline classes when I was a kid and even did a few competitions. (Competitive trampoline! Weee!)

BUT ALSO the instructor of the class...

Ooh, I like the sound of that!

Yeah there was one time I was looking at random job postings and was like "short term contract, $10k/wk, damn what's the.... Oh they're hiring scabs. Pass."

They were testing the fire alarms in our building last week and the cats skittering off back and forth would have been hilarious if it wasn't accompanied by having to clean cat pee -_-

I really think they don't. I have a good friend who is ALL ABOUT Harry Potter, still, and it just leaves such a gross taste in my mouth.

These things don't have to be rational to be in my mind.

I am all too aware that my actions will not make a difference compared to the little things that the big companies do at a substantially greater scale.

But like. I can't just not try. It's a struggle.

The sustainability guilt is REAL.

My health concerns led to some testing that came back VERY QUICKLY and with good news (all is ok!)

I always love the "cops if you're quick" line item

Yeah maintenance had to get them out of my AC unit 😬 yellow jackets suck.

Them and mosquitoes can go.

Yellow jackets getting into my old apartment when I lived in western NY a million years ago had me so stressed because the cats tried to hunt them.

Do not fight the spicy prey please!

Sending you love, because that's a lot of awfulness to confront. I hope everything turns out ok.

Caught up with a friend who messaged me on Facebook for a little bit this morning. We both discovered that Facebook had not shown us major life events for each other, even though that is literally the reason I still have Facebook. Ugh.

Yeah I had that happen for a long weekend to new Orleans last year sometime. I was annoyed because it cut my already short trip by a day.

Where I used to live in Florida was trying to figure out which road they wanted to name after him.

Gosh, I am so glad to not be there anymore.

I had some issues earlier but a restart seemed to fix them.
