What? I'm just sitting here? Totally normal to sit here on the arm of the chair.
Wasn't doing nothing involving claws just a second ago.
Just sitting here, getting ready in case you need any help with typing and stuff.

Tell me your favourite things from the #BlueJays season.
I'll start. Watching a team that had such clear joy in playing baseball. Who played as a team and made amazing things happen.

My heart is sore for the boys. #BlueJays, thank you for bringing me back to baseball and for the truly amazing season of watching you be incredible. I will be watching next season - sending hopes and hopes their way for another fantastic season next year.

All my mental energy is going to the Blue Jays playing their game tomorrow - taking it to the Dodgers the way we know they can.

Oh wow - what a game that was. I was happy to see how well Lauer pitched - what a performance from him even if this game didn't go our way.

Would have loved for the boys to go to LA up by two. But even will do. Just feel bad for Gausman the boys will need to be on their bats next time he pitches!

A person gets so attached to the players on a team you watch play 160+ games in a year. I wish the rosters were bigger so I didn't have to see them move people I really enjoyed and think were important to the team off. But also happy to see those added back.
I could never be an MLB manager.

Oh my gosh. I am an October baby and I have to say that the Blue Jays just gave me the best birthday month present I've ever had. Now I just need to wait a little to see if they one up their present.

Just like a win is a team effort, so too is a loss a team loss. I'm sad about tonight's result but still believe in my Jays and look forward to their comeback in the last two.

I'm trying to write one (generally terrible) little 'poem' for each player on the Blue Jays. I'm only at about 5 of them so far. Need many more. #GoJaysGo

I had filed my request for many extra innings tonight and my request was granted.
Wonder who will pitch on Sunday against our Jays?

Who else wants to admit they might just prefer the Queen of the Night's Act 1 aria, 'O zittre nicht, mein lieber Sohn,' over the more famous Act 2 'Der Hölle Rache' from Mozart's The Magic Flute?
Detail from an old piece (Tamino is out of crop), c.2004/5. We won't talk about its manifold issues. 🙈

Hadn't watched baseball in years until last fall when my parents moved in. This season has been wonderful watching the #BlueJays.
Was feeling a little worried but today felt like the Jays team I've been cheering for all year. Glad to see them looking themselves again.

I keep hearing a wee kitten crying outside but I can't find it, it stops when I go outside plus the sound dynamics are weird around my house, things often sound like they are in my back yard when they are in my neighbor's yard etc.
Best way to find a wee baby stray cat anyone?

Here is Black Cat with her chonky belly up to the air, 'hugging' the cat toy that she will either continue to just hug for a while before abandoning this lounging post by the stairs or start to viciously assault from this same belly up pose.

Today I register a victory over the badly manufactured a frame clothes hanger rack that I got for the closet. I beat the bad packaging/instruction combo (I think). I beat the bad threading.
Sadly I'm fairly sure it will have the final victory when I hang one too many things on its junky frame.

So, GPS apparently has rendered people unable to read street signs (it is bad for my house so all the delivery drivers get lost).
This is why I have no trouble believing those studies that show chatGPT ruins critical thinking skills.

I love your Mercenary Librarians books and am happy to send a shout out for them. I love the hope inherent in them, that good people can make a difference even in a dystopia.
Like honestly, every marketing bone in my body knows that I have been falling down on endless opportunities to be out here pushing Mercenary Librarians, because *the shit from the books is literally happening* and I hate it but GOD THEY ARE TIMELY.
But also. Ugh. I DON'T LIKE IT?
