Rate-A-Queen Talent Show, part 2! I do like Ciara, but her act wasn't the best (though I don't think it was the worst) Is "squabble" gonna be the thing this year? Athena, I love the "Evil Eye" top, but you are 100% lying about your group not conspiring about rankings Why is Michelle here? (Oh, she's not judging this week? Did I miss this announcement?) So...is this "check-in" just to poke at the queens? Wait, when did Kenya not know her words? (Ah, I guess they showed some examples, but I think it should say something that I didn't notice til now) Myki is adorable (Also, those are zip ties?!) I really love the movement of Athena's outfit, it's very soothing Kenya is so pretty (and I gaped at the Asia O'Hara reference) Jane looks good, but it's not my favorite tbh Discord's look is sparkly, poignant, and interesting, but I think the weight is getting to her and it's a bit too busy for me Mia is gorgeous, but this isn...

Ring. "I'm glad you called. Though I'm not sure how you did." "Does it matter?" "I suppose not, if it's really you." "What proof would you have beyond that of your own senses?" "Are you really quoting A Christmas Carol ?" "You used to love that book when you were a kid." "Ghosts aren't my favorite topic these days." "And yet..." "And yet." "So, why do you suppose I've called?" "I figured that was for you to tell me." "You have no questions for me?" "I have plenty, but how much time do we have?" "Enough." "Great." "So, ask." "Are you okay?" "That's a kind question." "Am I mean to be unkind to you?" "I was to you." "At times, yes." "At times." "Are you going to answer?" "I am all right." "What's something I don't kn...

Here are some short pieces based on things that have happened in my life recently.  New Dog Bed So Hoban (my dog) kinda messed up his old dog bed. After he and I stayed in the living room while we had a house guest, he began to hump his dog bed. He had never done this before, but it continued even after we moved back into staying in my bedroom. Mostly, this humping was just a bit annoying, but sometimes it made me laugh. So, ultimately, I didn't care too much that he was doing it. But, recently, his nails got sharp enough or he got persistent enough (or both) that he started to rip the cover until part of the pillow inside it came out. I did what anyone would do, I ordered him a new bed. It arrived a few days ago, but somehow still took me a minute to take it out of its packaging. Not sure why. Maybe I liked the idea that he'd perhaps be incentivized to cuddle with me more (but, when he wanted space, he still went on the couch, so not sure this did anything). I think it was mor...
