iced tea made, thing read and replied to... now sewing, maybe. or maybe just back to reading book. or messing around on computer? I don't know! *luxuriant flailing*

also I have decided on making iced tea, but have not actually bestirred myself to make the iced tea, so I may not have iced tea today. I might manage to make some tonight. we'll see how it goes.

OH AND I need to read a thing and sew a thing. I have Things to Do! ^___^

Politics in General, a reflection 

In public school we called them bullies.
In college we called them assholes.
In politics we call them Republicans.

other ups: caught an illicit glimpse of a baby seal; saw the juvenile Cooper's hawks again this morning, and they evidently have a couple at PAWS also, because I heard the whistling and went "I know *exactly* what that is!" XD

downs (animal death, not explicit) 

unfortunately the owl that I'd seen last week didn't make it, which wasn't surprising--it was in bad shape, too bad shape for them to figure out what exactly was wrong with it, & it died overnight. also today we got a great blue heron who'd fallen out of a tree, and was very weak--similarly, they didn't know what was wrong with it, but it had lost a lot of blood. I wasn't in the room when it was euthanized, but I came in right after. the vet & I were both teary.

home from volunteering, finally cooled down enough that I don't feel like I'm going to immediately melt.

today had ups and downs. ups: saw a pileated woodpecker on the way to the bus stop & got a picture; while cleaning the aviary ward I got to see a red-breasted sapsucker try to escape, and a barred owl being vigorously annoyed at humanity; watched bobcat kittens being cute for a while; did satisfying work and did not die of heat stroke.

took a shower, now attempting to cool down enough to reliably get to sleep, as tomorrow is a volunteering day. :| I hope I don't wake up at 2 am again BUT WE WILL SEE

@mawr @starkatt @Soreth my favorite is Ikiiki in Kenmore, but I often go to Blue C for reasonably-priced, reasonable-quality sushi--it's a place to get lots of sushi, not super-high-quality, but it's two steps above Sushiland. :P

Opinions about sushi 

@KawaSeadrake @starkatt I am also in this camp, not least because I usually can't have the complicated rolls--they have sauce, or batter, or imitation crab, or something else that is on my "nope" list. :|

foodstuff 

@chalcedony@octodon.social ... me too. XD

foodstuff 

yep... this gluten-free chicken pot pie is definitely... a chicken pot pie. not bad, not anything to write home about.

please tell me there's a strain of weed for sale somewhere called Mulgore Green. *is RPing a Shu'halo peace pipe ceremony*

ugh... it is still oppressively, unpleasantly warm. I do not like this. D:

@Soreth @Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town it takes time, unfortunately the time it takes is often proportional to the amount of hurt done, as well as the amount of time invested into the matter as well. you have all my empathy as you go through your healing process, hon.

he does this thing where he puts his forepaws over the edge of the tray and sets his chin down between them, and looks like a Muppet. kills me with cute. XD

Nar is flopped out on top of the cat tree STARING at me. every time I look at him he reminds me--LOUDLY--that it is (almost) food time.
