>:E

I am a filthy, filthy liar, and I did a news article for spnland after all, at the very last minute. I guess the way to make my brain actually work is to give up and accept failure, or something. Er. Good game, brain?

Mom's other carpal tunnel surgery went super well. She's just so thrilled to have feeling back in both hands now (even just after one day, she can tell the difference again, even before healing). I'm amazed she went a decade with them so numb.

We've been getting so much thawing this last week. I can see so much *ground* and *grass*. It's shocking. Though now we can see all the craaaap that is being revealed--all the branches that were buried since the December storms, the crap fruit from the neighbor's ginko, and tons and tons and tons of birdseed that we'd scattered when we couldn't get to the feeders for the drifts. We'll so have to rake it all. The grass is very torn up at the curb, too, from the plows, so will have to overseed that soonish.

That f_march_madness thing makes me all grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. >:( I cannot stand the concept of trying to make a character lose rather than trying to make some other character win. That's not the concept, and really jerkish of people. Yoinked a couple of auroraprimavera's YES DEAN icons, for obv reasons.

pimping!

I luff purequicksilver and auroraprimavera so freaking much. :D Just had to be said. ♥
