I like this, but I still have some questions about it.

Ah, this is my wheelhouse! It's Jonah and the whale. Jonah told his shipmates the reason why they were getting sunk in the storm was him and they had to throw him over. But then the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow him. But after 3 days and praying, fish vomited Jonah up on the sand...

Ich auch. Deshalb bin ich der Ansicht, dass die USA dem Internationalen Gerichtshof umgehend beitreten müssen, sobald Trump weg ist.

Very bellendish! One of the things that helps humans cope is we retell and find our place in even our worst stories. People who remember every detail and experience it as though it is happening now without reflection have PTSD. It is not forgetting, but the way we remember that matters.

Welcome to Nevada! Waiting at the airport. Now here's something you won't see in other airports. There are banks and banks of these slot machines on the concourse. I guess it's so tourists can support our schools before they go home.
A row of colorful, lit up slot machines with comfy chairs at the Reno airport.

Yay! I'm the guy to ask! Here's what you do. You put your soup in a travel coffee mug that closes and seals, then throw that and a spoon in a bag so it's easier to carry. ✨ Two years' experience with a walker until I healed! New knees and walking great now! 🚶🏼

I did not! A look like this does not happen with a perm. If I went in full costume, I would naturally be Gandalf.

Ah, you caught that, huh? I love hanging out with highly intelligent people. By that I mean, of course, people who get my weird sense of humor.

I do love croissants! There's a store near me that bakes huge croissants every morning, and will split them open and add egg, sausage, and cheese and bake it for you!

Besides the cats don't need a door. If the door is closed, they know to just jingle their collars or meow, and I will let them in. Also there is a toy electric mouse tied to the doorknob by a string. When they bat it, it squeaks loudly, and I let them in. We call it the "door mouse."

The only project getting done around here before the first snowfall is tree pruning. I've got a ladder, an electric saw, and it's got to be done. My poor old tree in the back can't take the weight of snow on longer branches and they break.

I would be so distracted by trying to see if I could make them laugh. I probably would not make a good head of state.

Even if I wanted to, in the process of removing the door and cutting the hole, I know I would screw it up.

Got into it yesterday, and deeply regret it. Went with an English muffin and a piece of fruit. Side note: I love my new cheap toaster tongs! I can't tell you how many times I've burned the tar out of my fingers trying to fish English muffins out of the toaster.

Talking to myself... "I didn't have much breakfast. I need a little something to get me to lunch." "NO! Not Halloween candy!"

I believe I am of the age where I can do the old person thing from now on: Just send a card with a check in it and a piece of hard candy.

😅 And it would be hideous, and I'd still have a hole in the bottom of my door. I have no such design skills.

And you maintain your privacy while the cats can go in and out. Still, no!

Flying out tomorrow for a wedding in Phoenix. One has been given to understand it is a Hobbit-themed wedding with the attendants processing wearing prosthetic Hobbit feet. One is further informed guests are encouraged to attend in costume. ˗ˏˋdeep, heavy sighˎˊ˗ Guess I should pack.
