I'd only been to Protestant weddings and they were essentially "Do you?" "Do you?" "Congrats, now where's the bar?" So the first Catholic wedding I attended was a horrible surprise. The wedding bit is over, let's hit the reception...nooo, you have to sit through an entire mass. Agony.

Brand was surprisingly entertaining on Great British Bake Off, so much so that I started thinking maybe I'd misjudged him. Go with you first instinct, I guess.

Someone once had the insanity to say to me that high school is the best years of your life.If I'd believed it, I would've killed myself at 16.

Thanks for the heads up. I just checked the GBBO thread and see the episode thread has been hidden now until a new date is confirmed.
-
I think GBBO restarts in the UK tomorrow, so maybe Friday on Netflix?

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel had one of the best endings to a series I've seen.

My rain barrel is almost empty. We've had a rainy spring and summer overall and I've collected the water in 4 buckets in addition to the barrel, and I haven't had to use the hose to water the garden at all. But today I had to tip the barrel to get water out and there's no chance of rain until the weekend, and then it's only 50/50. It's not that I want a hurricane or anything, but a nice little nor'easter would be great.

No social media for me, either. I stopped watching the news because it was too enraging, and Colbert and Seth Meyers because the laughter was not enough to dispel the anger and feeling of hopelessness.

@TattleTeeny, thinking about how other cat furniture is made, maybe get a heavy slab of wood and screw the legs into it?

ETA: OH MY GOD! I just realized that, being a childless person who loves having pets, I should probably not get anymore after I reach a certain age, just so I don't leave them all alone if I die.
That's where I'm at. There's only one person I could trust a pet to after I die and they're in another state and have multiple pets of their own. But I really miss having a furry friend to greet me when I come home and sit with me in the evenings.

Is anyone else following the insanity over on WDW Info?
No...what's going on?

I have never worn shoes in the house and that basically means, ever since the pandemic, I haven't really worn shoes at all.
One of the worst parts of having to go back on campus was having to wear shoes. It still annoys me.

Jesus. @Bastet, you're really going through a rough time this month. My fingers are crossed for you and your family, human and feline.

I was going to procrastinate but decided to put it off until tomorrow.

Two of my friends and I use to skip class and go to Niagara Falls. You didn't even need to show ID at the border then.

I bright Sasha home for the last time this morning. The ashes are in a small box with a tree of life on it, and there's a certificate. I was holding it together until I saw a card with a paw print and realized that it's her paw print and then I fell apart.

Put some stuff on the plate and then surreptitiously dump it a piece at a time?

We're required to get a note from a doctor if we're out sick 5 days in a row. We get 15 days sick time at the start of the year, it accumulates and is paid out when we leave service. Vacation days accumulate on a monthly basis and are also paid out when we leave. Personal leave is a measly 3 days a year and doesn't accumulate. We also have 12 holidays a year. Unfortunately, none of them are in August or October.

Does anyone have experience with melatonin? I was thinking of trying it for times I have trouble getting to sleep, which are becoming more common.

When I lived in Ohio, a local pizzeria had the greatest pizza I've ever had. I swear the white sauce was laced with heroin or something because it was addictive. I look for recipes now and then but nothing seems right.

It was very difficult to find a sitter who was up to the task of giving Sasha multiple pills twice a day while I went away last year. I finally got one who was happy to learn how to use the pill popper. I used Meowtel if anyone is looking for a sitter.
