Finding the old birding, nature, science, art, books and music peeps I missed from that other place.

"Am I the only one I know - waging my wars behind my face and above my throat."
I'll be at work but there in spirit! 😊 I might be able to pop into the Discord for a min.

You have been good to me!

I would be too. Brains are so weird sometimes. For me, it's often the people who surprise me with an action or behavior that are the hardest to take.

From the things you've said about her, sounds like she is not at all disappointed in you.

YEEEESSSSS. Fire alarm going off and can't turn it off? We don't need to close.

Omg. Sounds about right honestly. The latest for us was 3 toilets in one bathroom and the floor drain in another. The whole place smelled of sewage. Last time was diarrhea on the floor outside the bathroom and smeared all inside. Fun

Yes!

Yeah. Libraries are too often messy places in ways you wouldn't fathom. And I much prefer animal poop. But the job is still waaaay easier and less stressful than animal care.

Agreed

Yay! It's really cool! You might even still be able to get a signed copy from his official website. It's called Down with the System.

Me too!

I rarely expect stuff like that so it means a lot
November 15, 2025 at 4:08 AM
Oh man. Big hugs. Thank you.

Yeah! I meant I liked Mark Hoppus's book too but I somehow forgot or missed that tidbit. 😄

That's cool that Serj's book is what you read 80 pages of. You're right. It is so interesting. The parts about Armenia and his family history are fascinating. I learned a ton too. And I love his brain.

I know. Ugh.

Of course! You were next on the list! It was just as well bc i found out they would have ALSO been made to pay a tariff to the US before being allowed to get it. 😡

Sounds wonderful! I knitted, then got some stuff done, then went to see a literal high school musical with kid, and it was delightful.

Smart lady. 😁
