deflecting pool

found a brand new recipe for a brand new drink invented to commemorate the recent "renovation" of the water mirror between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial...

bright green sludge and blue rubbery chunks - sounds like a concept of a plan

 let's have a party...

and, suddenly, no one is talking about Thing One's Epstein Fury (aka the war with Iran) surrender or his Kennedy Center vandalism or his destruction of the East Wing or his pardons for insurrectionists and his slush fund to pay them off or the affordability crisis or ICE's atrocities and murders or the genocides in the Middle East and Eastern Europe or the illegal bombings of small boats that may or may not be drug-running in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific or the Epstein files or the hundreds of thousands of people who have died from starvation or preventable diseases due to the current regime's destruction of USAID or the attacks on voting rights and due process or his blatant corruption or...

the deflecting is something to reflect on, innit?!?

the neighs have it

 so ... i fell for another panel

this particular one has a lotta personal meaning for me and i bought it with only a bitty bit of a plan - the phases of the moon, a lunar eclipse 

and two stars cuz you can't have a second star to the right without at least two stars...

even without two stars in the top border this layout is ... wrong

better ... but still not right

i'm thinking ... i'm thinking ... i'm thinking 

fireflies? yes, fireflies...

the phases are upside down, but it's getting there...

misbehavin' on a sunny sunday...

dip$hitiot...

flippety dippity

in the meantime - this is what's left of the White House... elect a clown ... expect a circus

seems the birthday boy wanted a circus/mixed martial arts themed party this year for his big day ... guess the squeaky little tank from last year's birthday parade wasn't enough for bitty-baby-boy's ego

and this is how he's reacted to being forced by the courts to remove his name from the Kennedy Center...proof positive he is in fact, a drape-ist

unbefreakinglievable...

 Somewhere, Caligula is looking up from Hell and muttering, “That’s a little much, fat boy.”

aimin' to misbehave

 the Serenity stitching tin needed a little sumpin' to hold bits of floss from stitching...

so i found the pattern for snippets 

and a fat quarter of pink fireflies in the stash 

 then ordered little glow-in-the-dark firefly charms

 and made this...

now it's time to misbehave 

Retribution by Trevor Reed with Jim DeFelice

 

you've got mail

 my phone knock knock knocks when there's a new text message ... sometimes (most of the time) i don't hear it and it can be a while (a long, long while) before i realize there are words or pictures waiting for me to notice the little flashing blue light...

i dunno how long this message has been waiting for me...

SOMEone who shall remain anonymous but whose initials are Melissa mustabeen hungry,  huh?

 i know Oscar, but i don't remember meeting Evan before...

hmmm...

bacon (meat's gateway to ending veganism or vegetarianism) and maple bourbon?!?

i'd give it a little taste 

just sayin'
