I'm glad it worked out in the end.

I'm so sorry!

I got some sketchy stuff in place. Not satisfying, but something.

[describe kiss and how Helena feels about it]

Crap. Do I have to?

Aren't they cool? I just love them.

In other news, I've got a peach/strawberry pie to bake for Pi Day, but right now I want to sit around, knit, and occasionally exclaim "These are so cool!" about the shoes.

It is snowing rather pointlessly today. Here. Have some scarlet runner beans from July 2024.

I feel like I should be wearing Yardley London with these things.

Shew.

Downtown. 53 Blvd of the Allies. Caller said a Porta Potty hit his vehicle. We don’t understand it either but we note the St. Patrick’s Day parade is tomorrow and I’m sure it’s related.

4. Getting up in the middle of the night and eating chocolate because there's chocolate to eat

Sweet!

The corgi!

This site needs a break. Post 3 good things, none of which are the cessation of a negative.

1. Freshly picked, sun-warmed cherry tomatoes

2. @gsnorgathon.bsky.social playing bass (or synths)

3. Petrichor

And the shoes

From long, long ago, baby Zatoichi, the bunny who started it all. We had not yet learned the proper way to hold her.

Six years ago this week, we didn't know if we should risk flying back to Seattle, or if we should try to fly back sooner, in case all flights were grounded.

There was no toilet paper or hand sanitizer to be bought in the little Arkansas town where we were staying.

Well okay then....

Ha!

Up at 5:00. There was enough coffee in the grinder for me to make a cup without waking G.

I'm having a crisis of confidence regarding the Sakura Jacket. I think I might need to add an extra tier to the bottom and the sleeves for length. I wish wish wish the designer had included a schematic.

I'm Holly Wade Matter and I write magic realism/contemporary fantasy (with one sf/horror novelette for the fun of it.)

If I were turned into a polar bear, I'd look for an all-knowing snowshoe hare to clue me in to how I could change back and return to sunny Seattle.

It's your annual reminder...

"Don't buy bunnies for Easter-
That's not what they're for.
They're not easy pets,
They need exotic vets,
And room to explore!"

Upside down, by the ankles, and then treat him like a piñata.

The chow mein happened, so that was good.

I am just now finding out that A: mascara can spoil, and B: that it can cause infections. Now I have a new hope for JD Vance’s future.

I should proofread my posts more carefully, because autocorrect is chewing me up today.

I laughed over "thongs!"

All I want is for every one of those ghouls to spend the rest of their lives in prison, and an order of Judy Fu's Snappy Dragon chow menu with regular noodles. That's all I want.

That's Grahame, autocorrect!
