One of my gifts last year was a custom made calendar with a picture of my nephew for each month.  

Ooh, I thought of that, too! 

I wasn't sure if I should do a calendar of Max in everyday situations or ballet poses, but eventually I decided on a mix of both.

A solid routine for sleep is good for your health generally but I didn’t know about the migraine trigger. We are interesting creatures

Apparently when you sleep in your serotonin level increases and that triggers the migraine. That's why tricyclic antidepressants are used as a treatment. They work by binding to the serotonin receptors in the brain thereby preventing fluctuation. The human body is an amazingly complex machine.

Apparently all you have to do to get on the nice list is not be a deadly animal…

Didn't seem to work for me. I think it's a matter of context. You're kind of a rarity among Australian fauna.

... do it only before going to bed.  Not recommending it, but it does work for me.    

But what if Aod wants to do "it" early in the morning or as an afternoon delight? I can see why you might not recommend such a strict practice but then with your early curfew it does give you something to look forward. 

What ... but, he said, ohhhhh ... sorry. I guess context makes all the difference here.

Don't worry Nicky, I'll nuke those gators for you!

Just keep your paws off those nuke buttons. The world doesn't need another glitter environmental incident.

See Nick, keeping paws off has now been mentioned.

I don't need to tweak stats, since they naturally support all my positions already. 

Exactly.

Good morning. Rise and shine, sleepyheads 🌞. No, no "five more minutes". That only works for me  . 

B and T, good evening . Clo, I hope it was a lovely morning, and that the afternoon is being lovelier .

NICHOLAS FROG! Don't stir up trouble. There be alligators in the pond out back.

But.. but... they're friendly, right?  Right?

I have many movies like it in my library. 

Do you have Wonder, by any chance? I haven't watched it, but I feel it has a powerful message.

Morning Nickypooh

It was a nice morning spend in bed cuddling with the cat on my end. Now working on a presentation for Monday (about the impacts of PISA on educational systems, in particular on the French one). The cat had breakfast and burried himself back under the duvet  Such a lazyass this one!

Any plans for the weekend for you?

Hey, Clo!   I have the most predictable of weekends. Saturdays: work until 6 pm, go to my place. Sundays: work until 12 pm, lunch with the parental units, go to my place. My friends would call it boring. I'd call it chilling. 

Btw, the only exercise my cat does is running behind me everytime I'm heading to the kitchen.  He would be the perfect candidate for VP of the Lazy Club.

Such a good friend.  Or because you're vegetarian.

 And I'm sure Owen Wilson has nothing to do with it.  Me? I'm more a Luke-Wilson-kinda-guy.

Time for bed for me 

Enjoy your Saturday everyone

One of my gifts last year was a custom made calendar with a picture of my nephew for each month.  I gave one to my sister and my parents and my grandparents.  I have been told, multiple times by multiple family members, that they want another calendar.  So I'm working on that.  

Hey, Cassie.  Happy to hear you plan on writing. I received one of those calendars from my daughter... family photos of all of them, including the dog, for each month. It's an awesome gift.

I bought a mattress online yesterday for one of the guest rooms, and a car vacuum for one of my daughters... her Christmas request. Saved 31% off the mattress.   Hey, B.
