Pointless Update (AKA I CAN'T RELAX)

Today, spent 6+ hours at the hipster coffee shop inhaling caffeine and working on the novel. Am now exhausted, twitchy and unable to stop thinking about ceramic dolls.

How're you all doin'?

Suddenly my dog's keen interest in the rose bush is beginning to worry me...

(But my very favorite quote was from the Daily Star article Making it from the sewer up the lines into someone's toilet is a difficult trip. A four-inch pipe, called the house connection sewer, or HCS, runs from the house to a sewer main. And there's no "trap door" or other barrier in place. But if the lines are running, the rats have to hold their breath and swim uphill in the pipes against the water current.

Says Hagen Fairbanks of Wastewater Management: "If the rat makes it through your HCS, that's a determined rat."
