Things I left behind at the thrift store, a thread: first, this bonkers vintage (?) Metal owl candle holder (kinda sad about this looking at it now, it kinda matches my whimsical office decor)
An olive green metal candle holder in the shape of an owl. The eyes look like giant bottle caps, the wings and ears are kinda wonky/asymmetrical, and the chest is a open filigree that let's the light through.

This cat! She jumped on the back of the couch and literally tapped me on my shoulder so she could loaf with her butt in my face.

Chicken leg blep
A tabby (brown and black striped) and white colored cat lays on her side on a small beige cat tree. Her back leg is sticking out and hanging off the cat tree (that's a chicken leg) and her tongue is slightly out (that's a blep)

Our house is serviced by an electricity co-op that sends out a magazine every month. Recently there was an article on the black bears return to TX with this amazing perfect photo grid of a bear chomping on a prickly pear cactus. (Photo Credit Jared Markgraf)
A 4-grid of pictures of a black bear eating a prickly pear cactus. In the first picture, the bear has his mouth wide open, like he is mid-chew. In the second pic, he's staring straight at the viewer with mouth closed like a proper little lad. The third pic is mid-chomp on a prickly pear fruit, with his head tilted at an angle over the cactus. The fourth pic is at the end of a chomp, with the bottom of his jaw in an underwater situation and a bit of jewels poking out that is just hilarious; if a human were caught in this pose we would be embarrassed. The whole set of pics gives off big cookie monster nom nom nom vibes.

A type of post I enjoy is seeing people's fave ornaments hanging on the tree or wherever. So post 'em if you got 'em, here are a few of mine. Common themes are horses, angels, and music.
A ceramic ornament of a single candle with rays of light coming from the flame. A wooden ornament with a painting of Holly Hobbie (a child in profile wearing a red, green, and white patchwork dress, boots, and a large red Polka dot bonnet that blocks her face) riding a white rocking horse. An angel ornament made of dried pasta. Her body is a rigatoni, wings are a bowtie pasta, arms are elbow macaroni, and She holds a star with a small white bead in the middle. Her hair is made of tiny star shaped pasta, and she has a gold star on her head for a halo. An angel ornament made of stained glass, in yellow, red, blue and white.

Husband ordered a t-shirt, but the wrong one was delivered. What are the shipping gods trying to tell him?
T-shirt with an angry red-eyed skeleton in a foggy forest graveyard holding a spine-axe and bloody knuckle spikes. The text over top says "I AM AFRAID OF TALKING TO WOMEN"
