Hi

Heya! How goes?

Crazy! LATE Last night had an interesting discovery. Our pipes are backing up and coming out of the floor of my shower. So Rotor Roter today. We lucked out that they had a cancelation. Mower guy showed up same day. We had to get a new toilet. And my god niece is mourning a cat who passed.

blink You...are having a day.

I'm glad you were able to get the plumbing stuff resolved so rapidly, though. And sorry for godniece's kitty.

Yeah. They have other cats, but the one that passed was the cuddler

Awww. 😞

Yup.

Happy 'Slavery is bad, mmm kay?' day, which I am sad to see some folks question why that might be a GOOD message

Oof. Yeah. The "saying our forefathers might have made a mistake is treasonous to the nation (and my ego)" crowd.

I am also seeing a lot of African-Americans being decidedly (and understandably) skeptical. They're waiting for the national holiday to boil down to a promotional for auto dealerships without anything ever being done about reparations.

That's silly, they're forgetting mattresses will eventually also be half off!

Which is what they did to Labor day around here

Ha!

God niece thinks some idiots will use this as an excuse for black face and cotton parties. I told her I thought MOST folks would not, but yeah, there will likely be some idiot

How are YOU doing?

I fear you and Shady have dodged each other again without meaning to

It seems inevitable.

I expected to be back shortly after 2:00, but it took me a little longer than i thought. I got the first mani-pedi I've had in almost 2 years.

If you enjoyed, it was not in vain .

I got a powder manicure for the first time. That's where they build up the polish with a layer of liquid and then a layer of colored powder. I think there's a total of five repetitions of alternating layers. My fingernails feel positively armored.

SNIKT

YUP!

I caught up on the Dagmar in the umbra quest. That was COOL.

Glad you liked!

I'm not really knowledgable enough for WWTA regularly but she was understanding that I winged it.

I admit, I like Lupe's pack

speaking with all due bias there, but sometimes I'm meh about my back up NPCS

No, I totally agree, they're a fun mix!

Also nice to see the parallels to fae kiths. (I know very little about WWTA.)

Rae and Catnik know it best out of the lot of us I think

Hey, Rae! 🙂

Oh, reminds me! It's a past thing, but On mother's day, in addition to Breakfast in bed, Siv sang something to Brekke with Piper backing her up (at least instrumentally)

OOooooh, that's nice.

Brekke would likely have had to clear her throat a few times to avoid appearing too obviously choked up

Which would tell Siv what she needed to know, that her mom liked it 😉

YUP.

I have been so lazy today. sigh

It's a weekend AND a holiday. You're allowed

I like the way you think.

AND all my grading is done.

Well, Shady has poofed but if you want to game someone?

Ditto for you, Rae 🙂

Hmmmmm.... Could do, but who?

Not sure. Frank and Brekke are about to be in the waiting area. Kerri is possible. Coradel if you like. Sylvi could show.

Sounds like Rae vanished, too?
