As of this morning, we now have 5 fuzz-covered chicks in the house, at least until they get big enough to toss outside. Yay urban farming. -

2 years or so since last post. Still alive. Only read LJ once in a blue moon for the rare thing that hasn't migrated to facebook. Don't know why I haven't deleted this account. *twiddles thumbs* -

I really need to see TMBG more than once a decade. They were on fire tonight. Best show I've been to in a long long time. I had no idea Seattle had so many fans of the band... the Showbox Sodo, one of Seattle's largest non-stadium venues, was packed. -
