First morning cuddles of the week. Someone is a happy boy.

First fire pit in ages. Was a wonderful evening, if an early one. Now, bring on the 80s band!

Asked and answered. I do not recommend. They aren’t playing with that bitter shit. And yes. It turned my tongue blue too. Even after immediate rinsing to try to get rid of the bitter because it was BAD and I could not even THINK to check until after several rinses.

I am a little embarrassed that my first thought when I saw this “color alert+” was “I wonder what that is. I guess I’ll have to lick one and find out”

I am also a little not surprised that, despite feeling somewhat embarrassed, I still fully intent on going through with this plan.

For Science?

To counter my crabbiness - a few pics from yesterday. It was a beautiful day for a run and there was additional beautiful flora and fauna that I captured only with my eyeballs.
Perching bird Dolphins at Herring Point at Cape Henlopen State Park Herring Point at Cape Henlopen State Park My favorite view of the ocean - rounding the bend heading back in to town from Cape Henlopen and it just pop up and reminds you that you are at the ocean and it’s beautiful (it probably helps that it signals that I’m 1 - 2 miles from done on most of my runs)

Is it giving smart? Is it giving casual?
I cant believe that I’m not only wearing hard pants for the second day in a row, but am doing so for such a lazy halloween outfit.

Bonus: I am in love with these earrings.

As someone who exclusively wears sports bras these days, I forgot what a halfway decently laced corset can do. Not to brag, but i was pretty impressed, if a little annoyed while driving.

Never pass down a chance to play dress up. The results might surprise you.

Thoroughly enjoyed RHPS at #MiltonTheater last night.
They did an amazing job, as always.

I am always impressed with the productions that this small town theatre puts on.
Phantoms pre show Absolutely loved this one persons jacket. RHPS cast dance party at the very end of show (post-bows). Yes. Rocky is doing pushups.

snip from an online textbook The magic and power of teams are captured in the term syndergy, which is derived from the Greek word sunergos: "working together." There is positive and negative synergy. The essence of positive synergy can be found in the statement "The whole is greater than the sum of the parts." Mathematically, these two states can be symbolized by the following equations: Positive Synergy 1 + 1 +1 + 1 + 1 = 10 Negative Synergy 1 + 1 +1 + 1 + 1 = 2 (or even -2)

It’s upsetting how difficult this clue is because of the fact that SO MANY options come very quickly to mind.
Nope. Nothing wrong with our culture here being highligted by common usage language. Nope nope nope. Nothing to see here. Nothing to worry about.

Pet peeve of this e-book for school.
What is a ratio met hod? wtf?!?
*clicks on link for definition*
Oh. Method. Ratio method. like the title of this section. I don't know whether to feel dumb or mad or both.
WHAT IS THIS RENDERING?
Snip from E-Book Ratio Method Top-down methods (sometimes called parametrics) usually use ratios, or surrogates, to estimate project times or costs. Top-down ratio met hods are often used in the concept, or "need" phase of a project. For example, contractors frequently use number of square feet to estimate the cost and time to build a house; that is, a house of 2,700 square feet might cost $200 per square foot (2,700 feet x $200 per square foot equals $540,000). Likewise, knowing the square feet and floors per square foot, experience suggests it should take approximately 150 days to complete. Two other common examples of top-down cost estimates are the cost for a new plant estimated by capacity size and a software product estimated by features and complexity.

A few recent #FungalFriends!!

1) baby mushrooms in my yard!
2) the patina on this one was absolutely gorgeous.
3) shrivel beauties
Two tiny mushrooms nestled in grass Larger mushroom in grass. It’s started to dry out but it’s smooth and in real life had almost a patina to it. Two larger mushrooms that started to shrivel up in fun ways

Saw this absolute beauty today while out running. My walk break couldn’t have come at a better time.

She was a little skeptical of me (and another runner a few min later) stopping to admire her and snap pics but went back to munching on leaves once she realized we weren’t leaving the trail.
Almost entirely white deer with grey/brown on forehead, tapering down to nose, and on ears. She is standing in front of a large tree and seen through foliage.
