Celebrating our 10-year wedding anniversary this weekend. Where we eating, Houston? Best special occasion meal you’ve ever had. Lay it on me.

My husband is spending a few days with his dad, who is not a MAGA moron, but he is a lifelong Republican and will never change. He’s a sensible man. He volunteers for his church helping those who need money for food or bills. But he watched Fox News ALL DAY. I do not understand this disease.

What the hell? How did I miss this entirely? #txlege "Well, we need water," Sid Miller said. "We don’t really care what the source is as long as it’s good, clean water that we can grow crops with. Fracking water would be fine." www.wfaa.com/article/news...

We had such a nice weekend with a friend in town, eating out, seeing art, checking out cute little shops, watching TV and laughing, staying up late and sleeping in.

"I had not touched a cat in 15 yrs when an orange kitten wandered over to sit w/me in the grass one day. I was left without adequate words to describe that experience. It reminded me that I am alive. It instilled in me a raw, unbridled happiness that I had never felt before, not even as a child."

Feels like this place probably needs all of the insane bad movie clips I collect. This is from Little Bigfoot (1997)

I bought a handmade '70s crocheted thrift store blanket for $2 and it has been a staple of my office for years. It has been peed on by one ornery, elderly cat so many times in the past year that I'm giving it one last shot in the sanitize cycle or it's a goner. Pray for me pls.

That's how we get our flood insurance. Oh well, guess we'll just die.

Unhinged post number one: supporting Buc-ee's (beyond taking a shit there, if you must) is supporting right-wing politics. Are there other options that are, I dunno, anti-fascist? Probably not! But every time I see that damn beaver on a shirt or bumper sticker or cup, I wonder what you're thinking.

Feeling well enough to plop myself at my desk, so expect some unhinged posting from my fevered brain today as I hydrate. I literally spent all day yesterday asleep and sweating. Hashtag who gave me this cold.

I'm being told by eyewitnesses #ICE is waiting in hallways of #Houston immigration courts to arrest individuals when cases are dismissed due to a loophole. If you're an attorney (Spanish fluency preferred) and can volunteer time at the courthouse to help families please email [email protected]

The Tonys remind me that musicals are absolute corny cornballs and people who love them don’t have the same cringe reflex as I do.

My husband is stuck on a plane half an hour after they landed because there’s another plane at their gate and now this is happening.

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)
