Hey, Tea Bat.

Hey, Drewbear. Sunday: cold and snowing; Friday: 71 F/22 C. #WelcometoNorthernMichigan

Leviathan, by Scott Westerfeld. An alternate timeline in history, in which World War I is fought between Clankers and Darwinists, between giant mecha suits and genetically engineered beasts. With his parents assassinated, Prince Aleksandar of the House of Hapsburg is forced to flee from the combined armies of Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, piloting a two-legged Iron Walker with the aid of his household servants. Deryn Sharp has a dream: to enter the Air Service and work onboard one of the British Royal Navy's airbeasts---a flying ecosystem fabricated from the "life threads" of a whale, among many other strange creatures. To do this, she'll have to hide her gender and pretend to be a boy---but getting caught would mean her execution. When these two forces find themselves trapped in the Swiss Alps, they may have no option other than forming an alliance to survive.

Hey, Drewberry Pi!

We're having buttermilk pancakes with lemon syrup. Homemade apple-fennel sausage patties on the side.

I'm more of a tea drinker myself.

Hey, Cassie!

Dinner sounds delicious, and I'm glad you didn't get too badly hurt.

Bread and coffee sounds nice.

Here's a leftover Halloween treat for you Comsie: Alec Golinger singing "Mad World". https://www.instagram.com/p/CHGtoWtnnEv/

Hey, Drewdrop. How are you?

Hey, Cutie Pi!

I made bourbon-pecan bars and Guinness brownies on Thursday. Brought them into work to give my coworkers a treat on Friday (since I don't work Saturdays). They were well-received.

We already have some snow on the ground.

Hey, B. We're a little short on sunshine ourselves.

Hey, Cassie. Someone forgot to dust in the basement level.

Hey, Marty! Sorry, I should have clarified.

He's still alive, at 81.

That is Pierce Brosnan, on the right side. The young man on the left is his son, Paris Brosnan.

At least we still have Pierce Brosnan.

Hey, Marty!

One should always be kind to nurses. After all, they decide which end the thermometer goes in. 😂

Hey, Marty!

We had pancakes and peameal bacon for dinner.

Hey, Dugh, Mum, and Thistle. *scratches Thistle on his belly*
