WIST Quotations Has Moved!MME. PERNELLE:This house appalls me. No one in it
Will pay attention for a single minute.
Children, I take my leave much vexed in spirit.
I offer good advice, but you won’t hear it.
You all break in and chatter on and on.
It’s like a madhouse with the keeper gone.
[C’est que je ne puis voir tout ce ménage-ci,
Et que de me complaire on ne prend nul souci.
Oui, je sors de chez vous fort mal édifiée:
Dans toutes mes leçons j’y suis contrariée.
On n’y respecte rien, chacun y parle haut.
Et c’est tout justement la cour du roi Pétaud]

A land fit for all our futuresThis is our first #Christmas with our extra #houseguest, my sibling, S. They moved in early in 2024. It's been quite a trial. I've now issued a deadline - Easter - but lie in bed worrying about how they will find a home anywhere.
With one "reception" room - the kitchen/diner/my office/clothes-drying area - we will not have a Christmas tree. Also with both G and I unwell, we'll be lucky if there's a string of lights up by tomorrow.
So, apparently, during one of their monologues yesterday, S said "you don't really do Christmas here, it's just another day for you".
We have clearly done an excellent job of hiding how disruptive it has been. Maybe I need to start being more honest?
Jeromyhello little buddy - this friend has lived on our front porch for months now. not sure if it was it or another friend but I've also seen one in our house. best neighbor ever, 10/10 would recommend #houseguest #welcomehome #oklahoma
Inside the Red Head's HeadAt some point earlier today my wife was able to drop a bowl on top of our little home invading mouse house guest.
When I got home I was able to slide the bowl and its contents on top of a piece of paper, flip it over, and carry it outside where I could set our mouse house guest free. It squeaked a lot as I was trying to pick it up, but when I tipped it out of the bowl outside in the yard it didn’t move at all. It just sat there on the ground. It was clearly alive, just shocked out of its brain.
I figured it was too embarrassed by the whole experience to make any kind of move while I was watching so I left it to its own thing and started walking back to the house. As I was walking through the door I distinctly heard the tiniest, faintest squeak that sounded exactly like a mouse version of William Wallace in Braveheart shouting, “FREEDOM!”
I’m totally serious about that last part. Totally. I mean, would I lie to you about something like that?
