Keeping an eye on the direct route between Seattle and Denver (with no cancelations yet) as Thanksgiving approaches. My child *IS* coming here for the week, hell or high water.
Travel chaos extended into its fourth day on Monday as more hundreds more flights were canceled across the U.S. Airlines were bracing for further chaos this week, despite the first prospects of a possible end to the shutdown over the weekend. nyti.ms/47Xl6au

My cat welcomed me home from my work trip by howling for 20 minutes like I still wasn't there and then staring me dead-eyed in face while he puked on the living room rug. Pets are a gift.

@maisy.likesdinosaurs.com has inherited a 3D printer from @mb-pottery.com and @bialpio.bsky.social. Does this mean our apartment building is now a printer farm?

The anxious brain bit that is always worried I left the curling iron on or checks every 5 minutes for my passport when traveling wishes devices that automatically update for DST would display a notification of the change so I don't feel the overwhelming need to check the stove clock to compare.

My beast of a PC broke its undermount on my standing desk, so I've been sitting for the past few months with the PC on the ground. But I have finally adulted and acquired longer cables - actual desk space is too precious - and now I can stand up while playing Overwatch badly again.

Saw someone's Instagram post about paying their rent by selling a video in which they crack an egg over their foot and into a bowl and then use said foot to scramble the egg, and... my life choices are not the only thing I'm questioning.

Gemini: Wrestling with your demons is usually a metaphor for boring things like developing effective coping strategies and discipline. Not today though. Today Satan is going to hit you with a folding chair.

I'm moving - please take ceramics off of my shelves! As I'm moving across the pond, I'll be closing my store indefinitely. I have no idea when I'll be able to re-establish a pottery studio.
