Had a dream there was a metafilter thread where everyone was talking about crossbill encounters and I was like “Yesss, my ship has come in! Crossbills!”
Unfortunately it was a dream

Ded from hiking (aka death wish scrambling up and sliding down vertical surfaces)
And at the end suddenly there were so many serows (kamoshika) and they were only moderately interested in running away, despite my top of the lungs singing about how I am dangerous and totally going to eat them so get away

Plant story postscript: it was wire vine

And that is the story of how I learned that harsh outside conditions slash freedom was what Plantie had wanted all along, and I should have been underwatering it and chucking it into the freezer for months.

I can’t remember the name right now, but everyone on the internet’s review was, “I can’t ever get rid of this plant, it is indestructible.” And then right after that I saw another plantie in someone’s yard here, planted outside, where it snows. So, I planted Plantie in my yard, and it immediately grew a luxurious new set of leaves. Every winter it gets buried in snow for months and shrivels up dead, only to triumphantly revive in the spring.

Once I had a potted plant, “Plantie,” which I got in around 2014 when the boss I had at the time decided to take the living table decorations at a fancy holiday bingo game. I had no idea what Plantie was, but I watered it and sunned it and prevented the cats from eating it, and all the while it was mildly unhappy and got little mold patches and dead leaves here and there. But one day I finally figured out what Plantie was.

Hey there. Do you know your evacuation route? Do you have a little extra food and water stored in case of disaster? If you’re overseas, have you told your government where you are (for example, STEP program for US citizens)?
Yesterday was the anniversary of the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. Stay safe.

I also know it’s good because husband is eating the remaining like three servings

The horseradish council knows their shit, everybody. I don’t know if it’s “spicy” so much as all the butter,but this is delicious.

I kept the so-called “grease” and it’s totally going on some veggies tomorrow

Aw man. All those amazing birds I saw at a park...they weren’t real! It was a dream
There were a few clues it was a dream...Japan doesn’t get many bright pink crested parrots, for example

“Maybe there’s too much cheese sauce”
Hmm. First and last time I ever say or think THAT.

Cat update: he did come to bed <3

Well it finally happened last night. The reason the cat never came to bed is, we left the kotatsu on
(We=I)

So I bought some horseradish on a whim at a farmer’s market because it looks like a betentacled woodland fantasy creature, and am googling today to figure out what to actually do with it.

Wish I could do this all day. This is more worthwhile than what I need to do for work
