Formerly Evil Sarah

The frigging "kumbaya" joke in this scene kills me EVERY TIME.

The Earth is ALSO Ohio in that meme. This variation is "It's all Ohio?"/"Always has been."

Altered Onion headling reading, "Woman who thought she'd lost all hope loses last additional bit of hope she didn't even know she still had."

Me @ the Bengals, every year

This is a Cavs thing! I mock my Cleveland-fan friend about it all the time.

The Phasma "reveal" is one of my favorite memories in almost 20 years of DC.

A Spotify Wrapped screen saying "Your listening age [is] 82."

This is 100% due to my cowboy songs playlist, and you know what? That's fair.

A leafless branch of a Burning Bush arcing from bottom left to top right. Snow is clinging to the twigs, and a number of red berries hang from the twigs with little brown seed-covers. They look like tiny red Christmas lights.

Close up of one little red berry hanging from a snowy branch. The background is intentionally out-of-focus, but you can see more brown branches, red berries, and white snow.

Got real artsy-fartsy with the berries in the snow.

Oddly enough, this is pretty much the exact arc of my languishing Western story's main character.

It's Hissing-Wastes-chic!

I'm just very bad at the back-of-the-throat "ch" sound, and that was hysterical to them.

(Their teacher specifically asked me to read Hanukkah books. I feel like that's important information.)

Nothing like getting absolutely DRAGGED by twenty preschoolers over your pronunciation of "Hanukkah."

I am but a silly gentile trying my best, here.

The SNL "needs more cowbell" skit is now older than "Don't Fear the Reaper" was when they performed the skit.

Sorry.

OU, oh yeah!

I went to Ohio *University,* and the number of people who say "Go Buckeyes" when I tell them that has soured me on Ohio State forever.

So handsome and SO angry!!

Speaking of deer, uh...let's not use the back door just now, huh.

5 animals you've seen in the wild:

1. Elk (Grand Canyon)
2. Red fox
3. Skunk (walked in front of me, no thank you)
4. Bald eagle
5. Dolphins (Florida coast)

I was gonna say "deer" but it feels like cheating when I go out my back door and see this.

Further behavior suggesting my dog is a cat in disguise:

He jumped off the bed to find a toy, climbed back onto the bed with said toy, and then knocked it onto the floor WHILE MAKING EYE CONTACT just to beg me to pick it up for him.

Same! I was totally freaked out by Jurassic Park the first time I saw it, and my little sisters thought the toilet attack was HILARIOUS.

This happened again today. The salt is everlasting and I am so pleased.

Oh, I definitely felt icky. I wanted to see Ulfric's story play out, but that's a one-and-done for me. New playthroughs (because someday there's always a new playthrough) will be Imperial.

I think this is maybe the 2nd time I've finished the actual Dragonborn quest. I had also never gone stormcloak, but I wanted to get that experience too.

I just wrapped up a Skyrim run, settled my character down in his manor with his pets and his kids. Stored all his armor, put on common clothes, and just as I go to sit him in front of the hearth...

Game crashes.

Perfect ending, 10/10, no notes.

"I can excuse [all of this shit] but I draw the line at banning THC seltzer!!"

Thanks!! It was fun to make,, although I still think the whole concept is kinda silly.

Admittedly this was a little far to go for the bit, but it gave me something to do while watching the Bengals lose.

The texture (3rd loop hdc in the round) is really satisfying, though.

Iphone pockets--a stretchy cloth sling in bright yellow, orange, purple, or pink, with a hole in the middle where you can slide a phone.

Dark purple crocheted sling in similar dimensions with similar texture, holding a phone case (because I can't take a picture of the phone WITH the phone).

"$150 for a stretchy phone purse? I can do that on my couch while watching tv."

Dreamed an entire crime-show episode, but now I can only remember that the key part involved mixing up Billy Joel and Bruce Springsteen.
