Couch 182: Spiced Gingerbread.

i want hot cocoa and its nearly 40 deg C here.

((((BCM))))

We bought a new christmas tree yesterday as the kitens destroyed the old one last year. I still can't find wooden baubles.

Also, if you want loyalty in Washington, get a dog.

i'm booorreeeddddd and the forum has been so slow lately.

Don’t look at me—I’m curled up reading a book on Queen Victoria’s matchmaking.

Very wily and imperious, that Queen.

I'm watching football. Was expecting a total Saints blowout but it's a close game, with Saints down by 10.

i am, for the first time ever. i handled thanksgiving by sleeping for 3.5 days. do not recommend.

Anyone want to go see what twaddle those people present at their conferences?

Roadtrip! Id love to see janina fisher.

I’ll meet you guys there. Then maybe we can steal some art from the Smithsonian after we heckle the therapists.

I was watching MLS. My team won!!! So happy! Sometimes it feels like having something to root for is the only thing keeping me alive.

I cant use the multiquote so i am replying all here. This is my first christmas alone, depending on what happens with my ex, in 30 years. It will be like all the christmases after i was 5 til i met my ex. I am sort of looking forward to not having the stress of christmas, but dont want to be alone either.

Oh IDK, qigong, psychedelics, and the Accidental Sex Therapist ( is it the sex or the therapist that's the accident?) sound a lot more interesting than the last conference I went to...

And, come on, Interrupting the Reign of Pain (which falls mainly in the plain) with the Power of Pause (should be Paws) sounds pretty engaging.

When all else fails, there's always Getting Comfortable with Edgy Sex and those psychedelics...

Happy Friday couch! Just had to reassure my cat that the shower is not trying to hurt me, he acts like he's going to protect us from it. He really is the funniest thing.

Count me in too. I'll be in charge of snacks and food.

I'm a Bessel fan girl.

Where do they keep the declaration of independence?



Maybe SD drive us in her Delorean?!

Awww what a cutie.

Cat pics plz?

The declaration is in the national archives. Saw it the last time I went to DC. Was very cool. Good luck stealing it though.

I'm unexpectedly off today. I appreciate that after this week.

Nah, the Declaration’s in the National Archives, under glass, and if anyone tries to break the glass (which does happen occasionally) it automatically descends into a vault.

Let’s go for the Hope Diamond instead.

Arrr but I was thinking it might look nice all hung up in my room and as I've previously watched National treasure with Nicolas Cage, I had a few ideas. But hope diamond it is then.

Should we compare calendars then? We would need to factor in Una's feeding times. On the 12th I want to watch the movie Aquaman and I can't do the 18th as I have an exam, which is the same with the 10th of Jan.

Any plans for the day?

Morning Couch. Hugs and head nods all around. Got some coffee today since I woke up at 4:30 AM (had to be at work early). Am looking forward to the weekend for sure! Kit.

The conference is what the last week of march - is that spring break? Are we gonna register as grad students or what? Are we all staying at SD's? And youre bringing me chocolate, right?

Being authentic is hard, because there is a time where you have to put the mask back on. That's where I am at the moment.

He loves bags, boxes, and squirming under the covers to snuggle. And he appears to fear the shower, although he loved to climb the curtain when he was a tot.
