#97: TWO posts in one week???

With all the folks poking fun at Elon Musk, I feel people are losing out on a major opportunity here.

Watergate?

Pizzagate?

C’mon. Elongate. You know you gave a little snort when you read that. Elon-Gate. Cause people think he’s a prick anyhow. But you didn’t hear that from me.

In an effort to streamline my online presence (too much of me is a bad thing, methinks.), I have deleted accounts for things that no longer serve a purpose to me. I no longer frequent 9gag (gasp!) or MeWe. So those accounts had to go. Debating removing Twitter as well, although this is more because I’m bored with it than because ElonGate bought the thing. But that’s a factor.

Most of my online time lately has been working on school projects, checking email, and poking around YouTube. Social networking? Ain’t no body got time for that.

In plant news: my Christmas Cactus is budding out. Well, maybe it’s a Thanksgiving cactus, after all. At any rate, the amount of sunlight coming through the window decreased and so my happy little plant has decided it wants to flower. Like Poinsettias, they’re affected by the amount of light they get (although the red parts of a poinsettia are bracts, not petals, but still….)

Seeing so much hate lately online, from various sources. Can’t we all just get along? You don’t have to agree with your neighbor, just accept that they’re different than you and move on. You’re wasting your own time and energy on people you don’t like. How is this productive? What does this change? Not a damn thing. You do you, and quit being concerned with how other people live. Just sayin’. [/soapbox]

Expecting lots of snow Thursday. You know what that means—it’s either going to just randomly dust everything or drop 2 feet. There is no rhyme or reason here in the ‘Hills. Morning class is online, which will help. Afternoon class may have to do without me.

Christmas shopping has begun. I’ve got one friend’s present on order (hopefully he won’t be here when it arrives!) and ideas for several others. Hey, unlike SOME PEOPLE, I *waited* til the end of October to start thinking about Christmas. Well, I did get a raccoon Christmas ornament at the beginning of the month, but come on! It's a raccoon. It is a moral imperative that raccoon ornaments come home with me. 

My green babies, and Indigo the dragon.

Halloween weekend went all right. I didn't end up wearing my wings too awful long. I had some vague notion of wandering down to Deadweird, but it didn't happen. I ended up changing out of my wings and wearing my leafy vest instead, and going out to eat with friends. Some folks complimented me on my ears (and I got a couple comments on the wings). I will need some new spirit gum before I can wear the ears again. I suspect it was old,  which is why it wasn't sticking as well as it should have been. 

Coming soon: Friend's-Giving and Friend-mas. 

Stay tuned!
Aye,
