clickies

today's clickies are brought to you by [livejournal.com profile] foxestacado, [livejournal.com profile] bernie_laraemie, [livejournal.com profile] bishojo_kitsune, [livejournal.com profile] nightdog_barks, [livejournal.com profile] lauramcewan, [livejournal.com profile] miintiktwa and [livejournal.com profile] machineplay: they are all fantastic people and good friends. <3

short-legged 'sausage pony' prompts emergency calls. People think it's stuck in the mud. I can so see why.

a brief primer on bisexual characters. this is hysterical. i <3 my girl so so so much. her snark brings all the girls (certainly me) to the yard.

name the new node of the international space station!

Two stories about fostered penguin chicks: here and here

scent that smells like used books. it's not BPAL, it's CB i hate perfume - i haven't tried their stuff but it looks interesting. They have a 'grass' scent too (i adore the smell of freshmown grass) that I want to check out.

cat found inside used couch yes, it has a happy ending. what a great story. <3

tiger cub at the jerusalem zoo.

cab driver found guilty of drugging and raping female passengers.

FDA approves next-generation female condom

can hyperbaric oxygen therapy help autistic kids? The study seems credible but they admit it needs more research. It's not a cure by any means. Interesting though.

scientists plan to drive northwest passage

dolphins blowing, and then playing with, bubbles. SO ADORABLE. must-view video.

pet AT-AT

Slept in FAR later than i wanted to. this is such an ANNOYING cycle, sleeping in/not being able to get to sleep/sleeping in. AUGH.

Trying to rework my writing process/daily routine. As in 'need to set up routine/process rather than dicking around all day and then being annoyed/angry at myself when stuff doesn't get done'. this also means 'stop having as many irrational expectations' and 'learn to not beat up on self'. I'm working on it. It'll probably take a while. (need to call new neuro today.)

Kid's replacement MP3 player came in finally (there was a problem with the original unit even after upgrading the firmware; we had to send it back.) These are great for younger kids, and REALLY great for autistic/developmentally delayed kids. I can't reccommend them enough. (I also have a discount code if anyone wants it, so if you're looking to buy, let me know.)

I mostly wear Ofresia, which is Freesia with a touch of the scent of freshmown grass. :)

There was an old Rose is Rose comic about success coming from realistic goals: "I'll cross out 'hide from the world' and replace it with 'avoid eye contact'!"

I've dreamed of that sort of perfume for years. Huzzah!

The MP3 player link didn't work. This one does, though: http://www.sweetpeatoyco.com/

Ooh, yes. That sort of perfume sounds WAY more to my liking than BPAL.

I didn't take the time to look up the post but....

While building three IKEA shelves and sorting my books I contemplated making a perfume that smelled like leather bound books and pine shelves and call it Librarian.

I'll check with her; she seemed like she was going to go for it. :)

Don't know how long this has been going on for you, but it seems like everyone I talk to has been having this problem since the time change. I know I have. I think the new timing is more problematic for some reason.

Bwee! Someone else who likes the look of CBIHP and "In the Library" in particular! And I like the fact that he prefers to use fresh ingredients.
