Flipped the Elsie kitten over onto her back when she climbed up on me and she just… lay there? All stretched out and snoozing.

I told her that she is grubby and needs a bath. She started purring.

So Roz found and killed a mouse last night. Anyone have any recommendations for traps?

Hey, I’m just asking if anyone could rid me of this turbulent priest! I’m not advocating anything!

Elsie has discovered, through experimentation, that her head fits neatly into the box of tissues but it doesn’t come back out easily.

Trying to get my TV and my older phone to synch up for future video calls.

Sorbet instructions: strain through a fine mesh.

I’m working on a new RPG campaign where the players are all at least “in the know” about how magic and the supernatural is real.

The high concept is that their job is with a supermarket tabloid. The paper is in on the conspiracy.

What would YOU have them investigate?

Is it weird that we have a special word for killing somebody by throwing them out of a window?

Is some alien race just staring at a dictionary and shaking their collective heads at “defenestration”?

And is it bad that it shows up in autocorrect?

Working on the pre-dinner menu for Thanksgiving..

It’s a ginger beer float made with cranberry sorbet. We’re calling it “Cranberry Yaaas” with a nod to @janelleshane.com

The thing about cranberry sorbet is that you have to make it yourself. You just can’t find it in a second hand store…

Wee kitten is infuriated by socks. She’s getting a bit heavier but she’ll still latch on and cling tightly when you try to lift your foot up and away.

I have added
The diced tomatoes
Which were under
The kitchen island

And which you
Were probably saving
For a future

Where I would not
Use them in a
20th century modern

Poetry parody.

Forgive me.
They were so canned.
And so convenient.

All the effort and expense of finding the perfect catnip toy is worth nothing in comparison to the plastic ring from a jug of milk.
