What was your favorite toy as a child? I'd have to say this thing was mine. I wish I still had one. This was a gateway drug to Perfection, because there's nothing like taking a soothing toy and adding anxiety.

Are there people who don’t crackle when they breath lying down? Just out. No crackling on the inhale. I really should find myself a doctor.

My cat has various ways of expressing affection. There’s nudging love (head) and fluffing love (feet), scrubbing love (tongue) and pointy love (teeth). And then there’s playing. And murder attempts. Those can be difficult to distinguish. Just so many ways.

For the record, my house still stinks. The dead smell overpowered the cat pee smell as I walked in, though! Yay? Actually, the cat pee seems worse when it has been raining.

I bought some canned tuna. I'm so excited to eat a tuna sandwich. I bought bread yesterday and was going to have a tuna sandwich but I only had a big can of tuna and I don't want leftover tuna, so I couldn't have a tuna sandwich. I haven't had sandwich bread for a few weeks.

I… my house smells. Between cats peeing somewhere and dead thing in my basement, I can barely stand to be in my house right now. And now I smell like smoke. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Everything is awful.

Standing around by yourself waiting for a fire to burn out is boring. And I'm stinky.

I'm doing a monthly "Artist Spotlight". Finding artists whose work isn't completely beyond the realm of amateur reproduction is tricky. We learn about the artist and make art inspired by their works. So far I have Firelei Báez (June) & Judith Scott (July). This is the fun part of my job.

Kitten tried to climb me while I was getting dressed. Unfortunately, that meant I was not dressed and my skin wasn't sufficient to hold her. So I have a foot and a half scratch from my flank down my butt. I tried to catch her to take the pressure off and she sliced my palm open. I was late to work.

Okay. Both games ended within, what, a minute of each other? Guess that means it’s bedtime! Sweet dreams, Dallas, LA, Washington, and Winnipeg!

This LA/EDM game is wild. I thought “eh, well, LA has this.

Ahh, got a shower and got back to watching hockey. Maybe my hair will dry before I lay down to sleep. My hair was still damp when I got to work the next morning the last time I showered before bed.

Didn’t do everything I wanted to accomplish today, but I got dishes done and took down and cleaned up around the dog crate I’d had the kitten in after her surgery. I gathered up the recycling, but it didn’t make it into my car. I took some stuff out to burn, but it was way too windy.

Went for a walk with one of my sisters-in-law and a niece. A little chilly to be wearing the shirt I had on, but the sun was warm. My skin is very concerned about the solar radiation. I think I’m more spotted than I was this morning.

My pizza made from flatbread is always floppy. Today I just forgot about it for an extra eight minutes and the problem was solved.

Heartburn today. Apparently something with horseradish in it wasn't a good choice for lunch. But it's so tasty.

I dreamed a new storyline for a series I'm currently reading through. Something tells me the author isn't going to complete it for me, though.

Turned on some music. Need something to get through this morning. But maybe not this music. Way too slow to keep me awake.

I caught one of the Pens shirts! I don’t know which kid was throwing it. They weren’t wearing their uniform at that point and I have no idea what they look like.

Think there’s something wrong with this train. When it slows, there’s a loud blowing sound. Hmm, it just hit the brakes and no weird sound. And there it goes again… But! the driver waited for me to get on as I came down the stairs! Yay!
