Genuinely, I was about to say “cooked???? Um……”

A small orange cat looks at the viewer from her spot cozily curled up on a lap covered in a patchwork wool blanket

One of the best parts of the weather turning colder is that the cats want to snuggle with the humans. Gemma never wants to sit in my lap in the summer!

I tried to remember but I said “What’s a flower?” 😭

Oh my goooooood, I am absolutely using that picture of Rex every time I’m mad at someone

So relax. So satisfy.

Waiting at the maternal fetal medicine clinic, as one does when one is a 40yo pregnant lady via IVF, and they’re playing “Good Luck, Babe.” I’m not objecting, but a song about bitterness at your bi ex blowing you off for a hetero relationship is a funny choice for the preggo doctor.

A glorious paragon of catness.

Gray?!? I hate it.

Once baby starts eating solids, they are gonna get so many cookies from grandma

Ooooh, a historical gay romance, AND it’s poly??? Instant buy.

I am enormous and I cannot believe I have nine weeks to get bigger and more uncomfortable.

Star Trek had one guy who played the trombone and had all the sex and then it had one guy who played the Clarinet and was constantly lonely. This SEEMS right but we need a Spock who plays the tuba to be sure.

I can generously forgive you knowing that we now both know I was right.

The amount of time I spent listening to this while lying on the floor crying 2007-2008 is burned into my soul

One thing I did not expect during pregnancy was for my most standoffish cat to decide that my pregnant belly is the most wonderful thing in the world

Not enough people here appreciating the sultan of vegetables.

Eggplant sauce on top of eggplant-stuffed eggplant. Aubergine overload.

It was really gay, I will stand by that assessment.

Excuse me, it was the Shakespeare *Society*

It was so so hard. I still don’t know if I managed to keep a straight face.

I thought they were WASPy New England boarding school types? I mean, same difference, really.

Rex may not know there’s a baby in there, but she knows something is up and I smell great

I mean, I *am* thinking about my SAT scores, but that’s because I’m an SAT tutor. I frequently tell my students that SAT scores are good for literally only two things in life: getting into college, and teaching other people how to do well on the SAT.

Beach time with the wife continues to be a core relationship experience

Morning coffee on the salt marsh is a great way to begin a vacation day.

It’s 34 degrees here right now, but the humidity makes it feel like 40. It’s horrible.

If You’re Feeling Sinister remains a bop.

I guess she really is straight.

I want this with all my heart. Obviously it would depend on perfect casting for Miles, but *god* what I wouldn’t give to watch him form the Dendarii. And I don’t know how they’d film it, but Borders of Infinity would be incredible.
