Fall is peeking through.
OMG. That picture of Wolfie and Bonnie! 🥺
That is gorgeous!

I’m so sorry. Even when you know it’s the right thing to do, it feels terrible. 💔
Sending positive vibes his way—and yours!
You and me both.

I’ve ordered mine. Who’s going twinsies with me?
I thought that said Skittles BEER, so I’m going to clean my glasses and call it a night. 🤦♀️
There’s only one so I’m going with grasshopper.

Find the grasshopper.
I used to love it. That love has faded over the last ten years.
If I had even the slightest interest in Halloween, I would have bought this.
I bought this Trixie Belden book for 99 cents in a used book store. Turns out, I already have one. So today, I’m leaving this copy in a Little Free Library.
Ha! My Penny is not that talented.
Deep thoughts
I’ve received more than 700 postcards via @postcrossing.com, and this is my favorite by far.
I am tempted to stock up on my next grocery store visit.
It’s exactly who you’d expect and for one of his usual crackpot “reasons.”
SAME!!!
Happy birthday!

It’s got one or two. 😉

They really do want to force us to live in the past.
That’s why I moved here from there.
Chicagoland folks, keep these numbers handy.

I’m sure this is short-lived, so I’m enjoying while it lasts.
It was in the 40sF when I walked the dogs this morning, and it felt glorious!
Wanna play? Just kidding!
I’m so sorry 💔
There’s definitely some Voods side-eye happening there.

This is the correct answer.

I’m so sorry. Even though he won’t admit it, Dan does need a break. And so do you. 🫂
Seconded. I prefer the minis to the full-size ones.
Sending you virtual chicken soup and healing vibes

Post a random picture, or else everything will go bad in September
That sucks. I hope the weekend brings better news!
That’s the plan!
Happy Gotcha Day, Trinket!
This weekend I am reteaching myself to crochet. (I learned years ago but completely forgot how.) So far, casting on—not a problem. Everything after that, problem. My mistake? Choosing cute fuzzy yarn that makes it difficult to see what I’m doing. Tomorrow I find cute yarn that’s not fuzzy!

Fuck him. Those camps are people’s homes. Shit like this is why I wrote Outlaws.
Thank you!
A colleague sent me a birthday gift:
DO IT
Well, then, exception granted as long as you buy something frivolous too.
Nope. No adulting on your birthday and definitely no shoulding on yourself. It’s against the rules.
Happy birthday!
THIS: “The entire structure is engineered to reward coupledom – tax breaks, shared insurance, housing policies that assume “household income” means two earners.” Don’t get me wrong: I enjoy singlehood. But, as the article notes, being solely responsible for everything can be hard in so many ways.
Happy birthday!
Kudos to them for trying again and not giving up on you. I hope this time is the charm! 🤞

The news is just too much. If you need me, I’ll be offline and under a blanket with Penny.

Oh! I qualify for that now! **makes note**

They say thank you!
Thank you!
