Dang. That’s a good gift. Is opal her birthstone?

This is so pretty! You made these? …are you a wizard
…I was right! My husband saw the preview image and asked if it was a Gambian pouched rat and I said no, I think it’s a quokka. I feel so validated.
One of my parents’ two cats can occasionally be wrangled into a harness for outdoor exploration, but Mom and Dad have to be careful. She’s a criminal mastermind and exploits any opportunity to do crime, and she really wants to do outdoor crime.
It really was so valuable in its heyday.
When the Russia thing happened circa 2016, I copied mine to Dreamwidth and while it’s been great it’s also pretty lonely. Basically no one in my circle updates anymore; maybe two or three friends read my stuff.
But I’m never going to stop. My whole adult life is recorded on Dreamwidth; I started my LJ the month I graduated from high school, and 22 years later I’m still blathering, just on DW now with no one to interact with. (The loneliness is mostly a result of me making a decision ~15 years ago to limit my LJ friends list to people I actually knew offline, so at this point the number of people-I-know-offline who have any interest in regularly updating DW can be rounded down to zero.) (But it still bums me out and I dream of a Dreamwidth Renaissance.)
Not bad, thanks! Dog is sleeping on my lap, pinning down my scrolling and tapping hand with his little chin, but I’m managing. How’s stuff over in Lemmyville?
