What the actual hell, America. -
what's going on
(sorry for another update in the form of a copy/pasted email to my best friend but she's been with me through this whole horrible summer and sometimes I can only find the words when I'm speaking to her)

Whaaaaaat
I know I don't post here much but lately even scrolling Tumblr and reblogging a few cute frogs or knitting patterns is taxing my resources. Having to actually form coherent sentences gives me a headache most days. And I haven't been replying to the posts I see on my friends feed and I'm so sorry, friends. I'm reading your entries and ( Read more... ) -
To all my British friends

Recordings were interrupted five times ( ( Read more... ) -
FrogWatch
Nothing to see here, just putting some stuff down before FrogWatch season starts and I'll be adding things as I go along so no need to comment unless you're as interested in those little croaking bioindicators as I am. Spoiler alert: You're probably not. I'm a little weird when it comes to frogs ( Read more... ) -
run-on sentence: the home repairs version
Just finished a walkthrough of our house with a carpenter and of course everything in our house is non-standard because it's 71 years old and of course the side doors and the garage door and the cabinet drawers will have to be custom built but this guy also has twenty years experience building homes so he knows what he's talking about and I don't ( Read more... ) -
People I wanted to fight today...
The dude in the saggy jorts and crusty baseball cap who thought he was going to barge in front of me at the refrigerated section in Aldi's. Oh, did I plant my booted heel in your instep? I'm so clumsy ( Read more... )
