That Bard Val

18 days ago, I posted that I had Flu B.

Now I have RSV.

I am absolutely over the constant merry-go-round of illness this winter.

I took the flu vaccine in September before a gathering of friends in October.

I caught Flu A the end of December.

I now have Flu B.

I'm not yet convinced I'm not dying.

This one's no joke.

But the Flu vaccine this year sure as fuck was.

(I'm pro-vaccines, but this is 🌈BULLSHIT🌈.)

Ipso Facto Meeny-Moe MAGICO, by Clock Elixir 12 track album

Oh my gosh. I just found out that I'm releasing a punk rock Chrono Trigger concept album this Friday?! It's called Ipso Facto Meeny-Moe MAGICO and there are already two songs from it available to listen on bandcamp! clockelixir.bandcamp.com/album/ipso-f...
I didn't even use any AI! How fucking cool

How mysterious!

...and that mascara may be from 2018, so you may need to take me to urgent care later. Dinner *and* a show.

Me. I'm the show. 😆

Handsome boy is handsome.

😂😂😂

I will resist the urge to bring a case to your home. 😂

Puzza...Jesus Christ.

Bluesky, why no allow editing?

Oh, I sincerely hope I didn't just miss an opportunity for nostalgia school cafeteria puzza...

I have learned about Gordon's Food Service Store.

This is dangerous knowledge and never should have been given to me.

Eh...Singing is a practiced skill like so many, but I get what you're saying. I just dislike good folks being critical of their natural talent. 🙂

We are five days into 2026. I've been busy straightening up and organizing. It feels good. I actually have some exciting things coming up in the next few weeks, which is pretty great, given that January is usually a sucking pit of despair.

Yay for interesting projects and fun with friends!

If you insist on being deprecating towards my friend, I'm gonna have to get loud.

No one wants that.

Beat Saber is what we bought ours for!

This is but one example of the many that scream, "Autistic people live here!"...

Girl. I've seen this man start a new jar because someone disrupted the excavation process of the current jar*.

* but not in this economy, because who does that?

Time doesn't exist between Christmas and New Year's...

She's such a baby. 🥰

Is there a photo of Tendi anywhere that we could see her? I looked a bit but figured I'd simply ask in case a recent one is available so I can appreciate her amazonian stature. 🥰

@urzamtg.bsky.social doing Urza things...

We stick with robot combat and marble racing in our household.

Then again, we live in Cleveland. I hear in passing that we are missing nothing by paying no attention to American football. 😆

We are fortunate in that we have homeowners insurance that will cover (likely most of) the cost of a replacement, but a repair would indeed be more expedient.

Our clothes dryer stopped functioning on Christmas Day. (A service person is coming Tuesday to determine if it's dead or just napping.)

Today, the dock for our Switch decided to retire. (We figure it is just done with our bullshit.)

2025. This isn't an airport. You needn't announce your departure.

The noises are absolutely glorious!!!

Out if nowhere, I realized I had all the ingredients to make Blackberry Peach Cobbler using spiced peaches and let me just say, it is delicious.

Her expression, though...
