Just got here. pronouns are she/her
It took me 3 nights to finish the audiobook. I want more. I've been in such a holding pattern for things to read that I allowed FB to sell me an urban fantasy series where the main protagonists are modern-day druids raising a child Merlin.

Whoops. The dig is working on cuneiform. (I was watching a lot of British Museum videos.)

My printing has loops and whirls so I can fake it, but it doesn't connect the way my Mother's beautiful penmanship does.

Honest to god, I was kept in at recess for 4th grade because I hadn't done my cursive homework, and I have had a personal vendetta against it since.

I watched a video from the British Museum where the guy teaches you the rudiments of reading hieroglyphics and it was really cool. What was cooler is that the project is working with local archaeologists to dig at the sites, and training others in methods.

Happy to report that everything I looked at has sold out in my size. I'll wait for a re-stock.

I don't know how you reach into the ether and find just the right Tiger for my situation, but it's definitely this one right now.

Yep. "Oh, new Paleo t-shirt! I remember ordering those..."

I looked at the rest of the thread, and this one is still my favorite.

We picked our JoP by the Monty Python quote he had on his website.

I know I am late to the party on this one, but the place we get ours is pleep. The fleece hoodies are perfect, and have so many pockets.

Every. Shift. At the Gym. When. I Was. An Apprentice. Every shift! (I worked 6-7 day weeks, so it was egregious.)

I heard it on the radio and spun away from it because of you.

My inner chant: I don't need another t-shirt. Check redbubble: I need that. In every form. I need tank tops to workout in, right?

My dad the construction electrician used to swear by those.

Yep. Have to learn to fish.

I had to drive an hour to get to a theater that played it. Worth it.

Spends a little too much time in the water, for a cat's taste. ;)

We had an 18 month long house project (non-disclosure by seller created a health hazard) and having to have strangers and put cats away was such an enormous deal. Our cats got pretty wary of unexpected treats and shut doors.
In the end, we just put plywood up. But yes, pants.

I posted that a few weeks ago when it came up, and people nodded and hmmed.

This is amazing.

Here I am pumping gas at Speedway, and they have those annoying visual ads...and one of them is for weed.

Also, I got a "buy some get some free" weed ad on the local paper they stuff in your mailbox.

It's a weird place to be.

Well, we chose which books were most important to us, and then we started getting the new ones in electronic form.

But "never get rid of the books" used to be my mantra. Thankfully, we kept the TTRPG books, because we got back into it.
