Yesterday

So we've set up something of a mini weather station here, for mostly KJ and my amusement. This includes a rain gauge.

The other day I went out onto the white stuff to check the content.

The white stuff was very creepy. I did not go through it. The ground creaked ominously as I walked across it, instead. I walked carefully, hoping not to fall.

My first thought, "I'm leaving no tracks."

My second thought, "Ha! I wonder if thewronghands could read this spoor!"

Amusing myself again

So since I'm stuck sitting under the baby at the moment I am screwing around with astrology again. calpatine summarised my sun/moon/ascendant as "LET'S GO CHANGE THE WORLD TOGETHER wait plan? what do you mean plan? THAT'S A SECRET".

I swapped that a little to "I'M NOT TELLING YOU ABOUT MY BRILLIANT LACK OF PLAN TO CHANGE THE WORLD".

Then I added Mercury to get "I'M NOT TELLING YOU ABOUT MY BRILLIANT LACK OF PLAN TO CHANGE THE WORLD IN PEDANTIC DETAIL."

If I keep going to include all the classical planets I wind up with "I'M NOT TELLING YOU ABOUT MY BRILLIANT, SENSITIVE, ARTSY, DILETTANTEISH LACK OF PLAN TO CHANGE THE WORLD TO MATCH UNREASONABLY HIGH STANDARDS IN PEDANTIC DETAIL."

... not inaccurate.

There is something extremely wrong with me

Probably in one of the better possible ways.

So ardaniel mentioned to me about one of the latest "OMG women are getting cooties in my fandom" explosions, and Scalzi commented on it today, and now I'm pondering that some time in the future I might actually go to cons where cosplay happens once more. (I mean, it's been an age since I visited erispope and we used to do Dragon*Con.)

And so, in honor of all the misogynistic twitbrains who are deeply disturbed by those sexy sexy womens in their revealing costumes, I have a desire ...

... to cosplay a topless woman who wears a lot of jewelry.

By which I mean...

Pyanfar Chanur.

LOOK OUT FOR THE CATGIRLS.

Apparently

The mysterious lightswitch in my bedroom that I could not figure out what does controlled the light over the sink.

In the kitchen.

Explanations for why on earth anyone would wire a house this way are encouraged. Plausibility is not required, because duh.

YAAAAY T4

We upped my meds and I feel sooo muuuuch better. Wheeeeeeeeee.

Meanwhile, the doc had a look at the "mole" that developed on my breast and said it didn't look like a mole, it looked like a bit of nipple tissue growing in a weird location. And that this is normal. This is the point at which I shrugged and said "Must be all that practicing witchcraft."
