Today in “why is Grimoire crying” we have a new Empty Food Bowl Situation.

Okay soothsayers, a raven keeps doing something outside my window and then flying up the roof above me.
What does this mean and how do we become besties?

The worst accidental business soundtrack standard - previously held by the pharmacy playing “Stayin’ Alive” while I waited for my flu shot- is now held by the gas station that pumped the Game of Thrones theme song through the speakers while I used their restroom.

Weird that your guys ate at a Mexican restaurant then they turned around and scooped up the whole staff and now everyone is all no, no don’t eat in my restaurant hard to imagine why that might be.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

I’m not actively selling or teaching this month, so nothing for me to close today.
MN, I love you. The past weeks are rage and love and grief and hope as you step up to show courage and kindness to neighbors. You’re incredible. Stay warm. Keep each other safe. To a day for truth & freedom.

Seeing all my yarn places send out messages that they’re going to close all business operations but have the building open for people to gather and make in company with others is the thing making me good-cry a little today.

Is there a great big not-Kindle option for getting an ebook subscription?
I have Libby and I’m satisfied for audiobooks but the wait time on ebook series and occasionally finding one volume missing in the middle of a series is wearing me down.

17.5 hours into my current yarn spinning background book I have met the most Midwestern tiny gods.

Hmmm. Yes, you’re right. Two cupcakes and a cocktail. Here.

Me: sweater weather is finally here! I’ll just pop the covers off all the fans quick and wash them before putting them away.
Lasko execs, villainously cackling with flashlights under their chins at a meeting: what if we used security screws to attach the covers on our consumer fans?

Switching back to a flip phone has really brought some unexpected whimsy to attempting minimal texting.
Sure, predictable text, sure. I’m obviously more likely to be typing “Voltron” than “to.”

Apropos of nothing, the most incredible food launching incident I have ever learned about happened in Munich in 1967. When Helmut Winter built a catapult and launched potato dumplings at passing jets to get a flight path changed.
