@heydrink1 Welcome to my life for most of 2020-2021. No need to wonder!

@GhoulChick I was already on there from when it first started up 7 years ago or whatever. Hadn’t used it but just logged in and will tinker with following people again. Not sure if I’ll toot since I rarely tweet anymore anyway.

@packet_jockey @celticfeminist @rustypup Point of interest, I came home and told E about some of our activities over the weekend and he said “oh so your friends are like you!” Yes.

@SarahMackAttack One of our cats, a former stray who had lived in the back alley, ran out this spring. To lure her home, we put out a litter box, food, and her favorite cat bed. Sick with worry, I get up in the middle of the night hoping to see her. Instead… raccoon snuggled in the cat bed.

@tressiemcphd There’s an interview on arrival option without an appointment at most points of entry. Seems to be the only practical way these days. https://t.co/zf8uKGwwOQ

I don’t write much anymore (I love being an editor and am good at it if I do say so myself) but I did co-write this piece and think the work this group is doing is important. They meet people where they are with compassion and try to help. It matters. https://t.co/VANbRQrbmu

@sunbrae Oh, I’m sorry! Keep resting as much as you need to heal and be fully better, please!!!

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@celticfeminist I get that. Still, why are you working with covid? Rest and get better, please!

@GhoulChick Since I recently moved, they asked to see my ID when I went to vote at my new location. My license has my old address. So they asked for proof of address. The only thing I had for that was… my voter registration online. It worked.

@drosophilosophy Boo. I do have a baker’s rack I’m not using in my basement. Dusty but seems ok. So if it doesn’t turn up, maybe an option?

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@rustypup You brought your own Jorts to work. Good job!

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@msjuliedarling Congrats!!!!

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@rustypup Also, great sleepy pod!

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@rustypup Oh boy, that is a lot. I hope he gets through this phase without surgery. One of my parents’ cats has been on a special urinary diet for years and doing great. She likes her sister’s non-prescription food and vice versa, but they eat about 2/3 of their own, 1/3 the other.

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@rustypup @celticfeminist I’m one of those people!

So everyone’s first guess on Wordle tomorrow is “Times,” yes?

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

@GhoulChick I don’t have to guess because I am certain I had the same second to last try.

[Rachel Ewing @raewing]

This is good but practically everyone is “vexed in spirit” right now so then what? https://t.co/CrD5rfJ5xG
