apparently through the local night there were some garage thefts, a shooting, & a couple fires set - but, hilariously & mostly, there were many, many "stolen candy & bowls"... which were then corrected with 'neighbour found it, it was blown by the wind' - ah, importance levels!

Also, I was a gynecologist/doctor at a friend's Hallowe'en party last night :D ( pics are from...

Temperatures have fallen into pain level already *sighs* - even if it is just the am some days, it's still MEH & worthy of dislike :(
BUT... that's one one gets living in the upper, upper midwest where we occasionally get arctic weather patterns ( did I say 'occasionally,' that's wintertide in a nutshell! )

"I'm surprised you're single"
"You should start dating again"
"You don't have a girlfriend ?"

Geese were out & about for the first time this year - most spring-to-fall I see them at least monthly, if not weekly...
guess this year's been weird for animals as well as mankind ?!

things are - unfortunately, still - weird as hell locally... we've reached record shootings as well as record violent crimes ( more than doubled! ) - in just the the...

It's August's full moon - though, by gods, it feels as though there's been 216 full moons this year *Oi!*

it's been one helluva year, unquestionably, and I'm not just talkin' the obvious national & worldwide beatdown
it was just a week ago when I was informed of the 4th ( or is it 5th now? ) death of someone I know this year...

to use up my remaining vaca time before it resets, I requested some 'random wednesdays' off before Sept - this coming Weds & the mid-Weds of August... without anything/way to go/to do, I'd rather do split weeks like this than have multiple long weekends or 3 days off in a row...

s'been an odd July... and we're only 1/2way - July is odd enough, what with the anniversary of my sister's death + my dob coinciding, but there've already been two deaths of people I knew ( RIP Mel & Robie ) & a third of someone I'd intended to meet in near future ( RIP Rob ) :(
