Got no plans to beat myself up—if I do, I'll use a feather on a scale of weighing heart

My godchild said I looked amazing in this picture, so I'm sharing it. We now have matching Sir Fabulous T-shirts.



There was an extraordinary moon earlier this evening, a parchment lantern against dusk-blue. Patches of snow are still shining in the moonlight. I made fig-jam hamantashn for the first time ever and they aren't half bad. I am re-reading Tom Holt's Goatsong (1989), which I last read in 2015 when choco_frosh gave it to me. I had entirely forgotten it begins with the Plague of Athens.

How did that come up? (Has it changed since our vernacular?)

Shouted at a multiplayer video game (not mic’d up)!

It remains a three-syllable word starting with C. Edit: and this word is nowhere in Minority Monsters and should not deter anyone from the book!

Jeez. Adolescence has truly begun.

I could teach them Latin equivalents instead?
