Granted, I have no idea what she plans to do with it after the fact, as the damn thing is over seven feet tall.
Knowing what I know of you and your fiancee…
SPOOPY HALLOWEEN DECORATIONS FOREVER.

@Aria She really does live that spoopy life.

I find it mildly amusing and somewhat unexpectedly charming that one of my college kids’ Parents of X Uni FB groups is full of more helicopter parents and people asking the same question that is easily accessible on the uni web page (and to be fair even more things that are NOT) than the worst of the PTA/k-12 groups I’ve been in.
It just exploded this year and I think the main moderator who is kind of an ass/overcontrolling/lecturey last year about topics and stuff is like totally drowning in the spam from Karens and the equivalent of college kindergarten moms and it always brightens my day.

I wish a cat following you into the bathroom on everyone.
It is one of my biggest joys.
-
@junipersky Except when they want to jump into your lap while sitting on the toilet. Bare legs against spicy beans, the spicy beans always wins.

No no no!
My cat wants to follow me in, and then he wants to lick the toilet while I’m sitting on it. Leading me to have to do some very uncomfortable bending and stretching to fish him out of the back of the toilet where he runs so he can lick in peace.
It’s very awkward!
Sometimes he just wants to come and stand guard at the door, though, and that’s adorable.

I’m fully convinced that our elder cat has pica. Because he will try to eat the weirdest things. Plastic wrap, paper towels, just paper, lint roller strips, plastic bags. He is such a sweet boy, but I swear we’ve had to start baby-proofing our home just because of the things I’ve seen him try to eat.
-
It makes me happy to hear you have baby proofed your home for your kitty.
-
I sweep baby into my arms on the toilet and accept scratches as the price I must pay for cuddles.
Yes. I am weird.

Getting to share Fat Bear Week with you guys:

@junipersky ok so

This is what happens when he follows me into the bathroom
-
Entertainment while you pee!!

@junipersky he does it like every time. He is so frustrated that I somehow prevent him from getting at the other orange idiot on the other side of the mirror.

OK so, hear me out…peanut butter and dill pickle sandwiches. I know. I KNOW. BUT.
I was fuckin’ aghast when I first heard this was a thing, and then that turned into a strange relentless curiousity, and then I tried it.
First bite: “Uhh. Hmm. Not gross.”
Second bite: “…Ok, I think I get it.”
Third bite: “…oh my god, I think I…like this a lot???”Now I’ve got goddamn dill pickles and peanut butter next to each other on my shopping list and like, it’s such a weird tiny thing but it brings me such joy to make a discovery like this at 35.
-
@Wizz Are we talking kosher baby dill? Kosher dill slices? What?
-
@TNP Crinkle cut kosher dill slices, between two slices of peanut-buttered bread so the brine doesn’t just soak in. (…The crinkle cut isn’t important, I just like 'em. Lol)

Does world of warcraft count as RL? I’m going to count it as RL.
We had a gap in raid leadership due to the previous one burning out completely, which, you know, I get, so this patch I took it up. Some definite growing pains but I think we were helped by the fact that this season, we’ve all done all these raids before.
Last couple days we had a few serious issues – one person complaining directly about the fact that we were doing easier raids to get everyone the seasonal mount instead of pushing hard (something I had said we would be doing the very first day of the patch), and yesterday one person who has consistently been a poor performer but is a good guy screwing up a mechanic that kept killing people.
Thing is, guy complaining on Sunday actually chilled completely out last night, and had stopped a lot of other annoying behaviors he’d been showing. Guy who was messing up, once we took a break and I talked to him directly and stressed priorities in the fight and gave him clear and specific instructions managed to pull it off damn near perfectly the next pull.
I feel like I’m finally getting my footing under me. It’s a neat role, if stressful.
-
@Selira Leading a raid is a hard and generally thankless task, but oh boy is it great when it comes together.
