Day 18. A messy food.
Again, I really should apologise.
NUTS IN MAY and ABIGAIL’S PARTY. Sometimes at the same time.
What’s even more puzzling is that if you’re right (and I have the same suspicions) The Conversation is a publication that only accepts pieces from academics affiliated with an institution and that’s not a good look at all.
- ate several grapes
- ate almost whole jar of paw paw ointment
- ate quite a bit of cortisone cream
- knocked down shelf of goats horns at vet
- scratched the vet nurse’s face while thrashing around refusing to get her nails trimmed
- stuck upside down in an almost empty bag of kibble.
While I’m at it here’s a list of other scrapes she’s gotten into:
- paw stuck in wooden slats of big gate
- head stuck under baby gate
- whole body stuck in a bin
- whole body stuck under low-set bed
- ate two very chocolatey buns, had to throw them up
- Ate a sanitary product. As above.

The eyes of Skye Elizabeth. Yesterday she walked inside with a big fat leech stuck to the inside of her bottom eyelid that covered her whole eyeball. It looked very alarming. She’s fine but I was reminded how pretty her eyes are and if you’re in the position to do so, adopt a Double Merle.

Day 17: A appliance.
Ah yes, my favourite thing that probably never happened.
Another undiscovered pleasure ground.
A red hen wearing sunglasses with a white doily wrapped around her scarf. She puts in me mind of Little Edie Bouvier Beale.
"I don't like women in skirts and the best thing is to wear pantyhose or some pants under a short skirt, I think. Then you have the pants under the skirt and then you can pull the stockings up over the pants underneath the skirt. And you can always take off the skirt and use it as a cape."
Clare and Tess at Stonehenge in the 2009 adaptation.
‘The eastward pillars and their architraves stood up blackly against the light, and the great flame-shaped Sun-stone beyond them; and the Stone of Sacrifice midway.’ — Thomas Hardy, 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' (1891) #BookWormSat

Day 16: A hated fruit or vegetable.
Don’t look up the lyrics, take my word for it, it’s about sprouts.
It’s important for me to recognize &divest from the toxic ableist/stoic idea that you “shouldn’t” admit to feeling overwhelmed by stuff like “feelings”, just get over it. It’s that which minimizes one’s own pain, plays down, diminishes experience and tells us our trauma is unearned, that we are weak

Day 15: Body part (not heart or eyes).
Okay that’s amazing, you win!
They look so much alike, Audrey’s getting the same grey around the muzzle now too.

I'm so sorry.

Portrait of Mrs William Williams, Caernarfon, showing the sitter holding a handkerchief, wearing a mourning dress, and a brooch with an image of a man - possibly her husband, Captain William Williams.

Pure class here, tbh.
First half of ‘Shelley Winters’ by Tim Dlugos: Shelley Winters Shelley Winters you're such a pig I love you Not "even though" you're ugly and never shut up and dress like the wife of a cabbie who won the Lottery, but because of it! I think you're a miserable actress, and didn't even care when you drowned in The Poseidon Adventure, it was a terrible movie and you were just wretched all the way through. I agree with Neal Freeman that, objectively, you are ALWAYS unsatisfactory And incredibly tacky: I know someone who saw you stinking drunk and stumbling down a corridor in the Traymore, now you always remind me of Atlantic City, and that's dreary.
Second half of ‘Shelley Winters’ by Tim Dlugos: Every time you're on Dick Cavett I get embarrassed for him just watching you talk. You never answer the questions. You never remotely answer the questions. Shelley, sometimes I don't think I can take it you depress me so, but you fascinate the hell out of me just the same And I say with a sigh, "It's okay, it's just the way Shelley is." I'm so young, you're so dumb, it never could work still I watch you every chance I get and love you, you're such a mess —Tim Dlugos

Day 12. Something sticky.
I'm sure the woman who did those excellent impressions of the Queen is an actor. I feel like Ive seen her before.
