If you're a writer looking for paid mentoring sessions, Elizabeth Bear is a terrific choice. She's incredibly clear, practical, and knowledgeable. Worth every cent and then some.

Wasn’t in a religious family and I remember the frustration of working on my α alpha and Ω omega “Religion in Life” badge in Brownies. It was the same as the one here.

Like an ad the other day that pronounced Cunard Q-nard, and no. I reject it. No.

The Mason jar that's been in the back of the fridge forever that I thought was maple syrup has turned out to be whisky.
Not complaining.

At ER with eye thing. Listening to CBC Debaters podcast to ease this purgatory and snort-laughed out loud hard enough to draw looks and prompt additional pain from eye, making my snort-laugh end with high pitched yelp.

Heck, you’re on Snowpiercer.

It’s super slick out there. Don’t go without grippy boots if you have to venture!

No choice but to go for a prescription and near landed on my butt going a little further for a mocha at Java Blend (worth it).

Does it involve a pineapple?

Warm thoughts to you.

Spending this longest night listening to Leonard Cohen and preparing for Christmas.

Mom told me once that her dad Jesse, loved Cohen, and hid away to listen to his albums in private.

Immersed in lyrics tonight, I feel close to my quiet, gallant, delightful Grandad, but also miss him so much.

A warm welcome to the winter solstice on Dec 21st (at 11:03am AST if we would like to be specific). This is the shortest day and longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, where the Earth reaches its maximum tilt away from the sun.

DVENTure Tea Day 4:
Sakura Rose
Today we go to Japan for a unique tea blend. This tea is inspired by the Cherry Blossom festival in Japan. I start the blend with organic white tea, then organic rosehips, hibiscus and rose petals are added. The tea is finished with sakura (cherry) extract.

Trying to launder your money.

I cut my hair but it’s gone thin and not growing fast like it used to. Now all tickly-whispy. Discovered the functional glory of a peasant-like headscarf while doing chores and sleeping. Mom thinks I’m ridiculous. I point to centuries of women wearing same.

Did we all have those earrings? 😆

They are people who could have lived to know us.

Like reading hotel reviews, if someone gives a half star because they were told by staff to shut up at 3am, that’s a 4 star to me.

Nice! You have the seats Mom and I had for Buble. She got vertigo but wasnt complaining when the crooning started and we could see his butt wiggle.
