I had that one too. It was the best.

She's a crotchety lady. She's got the option of going out, as the cat flap has been reenabled. It will be interesting when she crosses paths with Merry and/or Pippin from next door.

The recent one, or the original?

Ah, the gentle sound of plot pieces falling into place for a D&D5 campaign I'm planning.

I don't have the brainpower to break players in on a new system, so shrug.

We have emptied the last *mover* box downstairs. I am going to celebrate by doing a Lego.

Beast looks out over her domain

A black cat sits in a patio doorway. A garden is beyond

Now we have deboxed the way to the patio door, we have left it open so Beastie can investigate outside as she pleases. So far she has mostly sat on the threshold.

That was a remarkably pleasant tea break on a sunny patio with a nice breeze.

Now, back to unpacking books.

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay

No more kings. Vimes had difficulty in articulating why this should be so, why the concept resonated in his very bones. After all, a good many of the patricians had been as bad as any king. But they were...sort of...bad on equal terms. What set Vimes's teeth on edge was the idea that kings were a different kind of human being. A higher lifeform. Somehow magical.

Yeah, fair point. I wasn't thinking.

What Rough Beast @wyrddrgn.pookiepower.org · 23h

It's a thought for the future.

We've just moved house, so I want to wait till finances settle out.

"Rainbow Dash reads Gideon the Ninth and casts herself as Gideon, and the rest of the Mane Six and friends as the other characters in her imagining of it."?

Or was that not what you meant?

Chicken tikka masala was made for the British. By people we colonized. How much more in line with British values do they want?
