If anyone is trying to find a normal ass chocolate advent calendar, good luck.
We started at World Market, they usually have aisles of them, not this year. CVS, Dollar Tree and Ralph’s also did not.
We found a handful of options at Kohl’s in their impulse buy section at their cash wrap.

Finally got around to tackling this project, took a few detours in my plan but this honestly came out much better than my original vision.
Peeled it back, then peeled it back some more, right down to the backing board.

I’m excited to share my finished Krampus marionette/puppet only one day late for Krampusnacht. He was a little more involved than my last marionette but he was definitely worth it. 🌲

Most of my top played (not Spotify for various reasons) I already own physical copies of but stream when I’m nowhere near my collection/player.
Buy the music, buy the merch, go to shows if you can. Support the artist by any means. Streaming just doesn’t pay them nearly enough.
Hey it's *Bandcamp Friday* again. The best day to go find that artist who was top of your Spotify unwrapped and actually buy their music, because all the proceeds go to them today. And by god do musicians need it.

Took some Benadryl last night and ended up in bed before the kid’s school night routine. Her bedtime is 9, I was knocked out by 8:45.
How am I suppose to go back to working a 5pm-1:30am shift after 4 weeks of sleeping when I felt like it?

Welp, the Christmas tree (fake tree) didn’t even make it past 8 hours of being out and up. The kittens toppled their cat tree into it and busted several branches.
And this is why we decided lights only and no ornaments, we have the wildest babies who only bring chaos and cuddles.

I need someone to remaster a 4K by next Christmas, and/or a Blu-ray audio with Dolby Atmos 👉👈🥺
And now comes the time honored tradition, in this house, of putting up the tree and watching Urgh! A Music War.

It truly ‘tis the season when Klaus Nomi sings Total Eclipse and Gary Numan drives around the stage in his little Power Wheels car.

One unexpected side effect of top surgery that I saw no mention of, drinking cool or cold drinks feel so much colder. Like uncomfortably so, once you swallow your chest cavity just feels weird as the coldness spreads. It better not be permanent because I really hate this sensation.

For everything that’s going right with my surgery and recovery there is the money side of things.
I worked 23 hours the week of surgery and work fumbled my time card so badly they only paid me for 2.15 hours. So everything went to deductibles and I got $0.

My sister, back home in AK, was sideswiped by a moose today while taking her kids to school. Everyone including the moose are fine, the only casualty is her new car.
The real kicker was her finding out that school was canceled and everything could have been avoided if she had read her emails.

It’s a bit of a pet peeve of mine; Criterion has done a great job keeping Kurosawa in the public consciousness, but criterion stans have really done him a disservice by giving him a snooty, arty reputation.

Kurosawa was a master, but his films aren’t difficult. They’re crowd pleasing blockbusters.

I’m supposed to be adding more activity to my healing, so tomorrow we will try the zoo.
Lots of benches. We have a pass so we won’t feel pressure to stay. I can draw.
Any mutuals want to meet up, dm me. If you want to go but can’t justify the cost atm, we also have 2 guest passes up for grabs.

FaceTimed the fam back home in AK just to have my sister hide away in her room to talk to us then hand us off to my mom who had her thumb partially over the camera, then my aunt who kept bringing the phone to her ear, for us to peer into because she couldn’t hear.
We will try again next month 🤷

So far today, these kittens have knocked my glasses under the dresser, ran over the kid’s legs (now bandaged) chewed on one of my Robin Hood statues, tore up a cardboard box, and are now parkouring all over the apartment.
It’s not even 10am yet
These babies are on one today

Post surgery bandages are off, drains are gone, still binding until I get the all clear.
Chest looks amazing & my tattoos survived unharmed.
Every nurse that has seen me has been astonished at my healing rate & lack of bruising/swelling.
The fucking freedom that I feel!

Turns out, Zelda loves to play fetch with a hair tie. Persephone was tossing it for her not realizing that Zelda was bringing it back, and dropping next to her to be tossed again.
This cat is going to take over the world between how smart she is and how destructive.
