That’s the kind of shit he’d say as a scare tactic fundraising drive, not the actual panic of an organization collapsing. Those bastards aren’t going anywhere.

I saw a production a few years back and found that the women were okay when played well, except for the truly dated and terrible song Marry The Man Today. IIRC, that was cut from the film. Guess it was too much even back then.

I’ve been looking for the Canucks who could share the truth about how it’s Always Too Hot, yet Never Too Cold when Alanis is around.

My Mister is ten years younger (eleven for a few weeks between our b-days) and it was a bit funny at first. I had to decide whether he was a toy-boy or an equal, which took some time when he had 25 years of living to my 35. I am pretty used to hanging out with people younger than me, though, so it balanced out. Also,…

Thank you for the recommendation of LaValle. Meeting new authors is the best.

Amazing woman, Buffy Sainte Marie. I learn something valuable every time I hear or read her words. Love that she’s still making awesome music: https://g.co/kgs/eQYAEv

I showed the Mister this picture and told him it was at a hockey game. His response? “Pete Davidson ruined the hockey game for someone? Ariana was right to dump him.”

If you can’t have estrogen, I would recommend the IUD (and condoms for STI prevention). I had one that emitted hormones, can't recall which, that was really great for regular periods and the pain in my cystic ovaries. And it was a get-it-forget-it deal, which I loved. Good luck finding the solution for you!

Thats a wonderful step to be taking as a family who has been through a great deal. You are blessed to have the medical system support, so keep on using it through this period of transition. As a person with mental illness, I have to say that my college years would have been much better with access to mental health…

So many lovely new faces! Thanks for introducing the handsome Logan, Thorin, and the pasta floofs. I happen to adore Ripley’s intense face; it demands love. Blind kitties also are full of love, and caring for FIV cats is an act of great love. However, I am a dedicated member of Bruce’s fanclub. What a cutie!

All of your photos are so good at capturing the kitty personality (purrsonality?) of each of your friends. It's really impressive, and makes it hard to not fall in love with all of them (especially Bruce!). Thanks for the updates!

I’m in the same boat. Exercising, at the gym or walks or whatever, makes me feel absolutely miserable. My mood post-sweatiness is always bleak, sometimes to the point of weeping. The idea that exercise could “help my depression” is utterly absurd.

Our house contains sixteen bookshelves, plus floor piles. The shelves are on a five layered sorting system: whose book (mine or the Mister’s, because we might be married but these are books we’re talking about)? Have I read it yet (unread books have their own bookshelf so we don’t forget to read them)? What’s it about…

You’re absolutely right, people who treat pets like ‘things’ instead of the wonderful blessing/responsibility they are should be on a register. Magnolia looks like a dear, so someone with a proper heart will be happy to give her a home.

Love this! Thank you for sharing - I hadn’t seen it. They are such dolls.

I had a weird feeling that Manila was on her last week tonight - something from the promos just gave me the heebie jeebies - but it was still a sad thing to know I was right. That said, Naomi did show loyalty to someone who saved her and eliminated The competition. It was a winning choice, in terms of the competition.…

One of the folks over at groups think was just on this week. She did a couple posts about it. I also read a great column in The Globe and Mail about a month ago by a jeopardy contestant. Up here being allowed of Jeopardy is pretty recent, so it rated a column in a national paper.

I live with sheers on pretty much every window. It lets me have light but no prying eyes. Even when I’ve lived on upper stories I’ve had them. I think it’s partly from living in tourist towns - out of towners couldn’t tell the difference between an historic attraction and my living room. Fair enough, they were both…

Thank you for the kitties! I’m sorry to hear you’ve had a difficult week. Sending you well wishes for a better week to come.

I’m married, to my surprise. I dated the Mister for a while and we talked a lot about how we didn’t need/want to be married, but one night he just asked. Sort of. It was a weird proposal.
