Oh…oh no. I’m so sorry, JtC. 
After Saturday’s busy-ness, yesterday’s day off was quite nice (and needed). It got up to the mid-60s and was mostly sunny in the afternoon, so at a little after 2pm I sat on the patio for ~30 min and let Bailey loose in the back yard. Our first quality yard time this year. 
I ate some popcorn while watching her explore the far corners, and had planned to stay outside for a while but pretty soon there were several bees buzzing around and my iPad had overheated and I decided to head back in. Normally, Bailey’s only able to access about half the yard: I usually keep her on a (long, retractable) leash when we go out back, because it’s a big yard and she’s historically bad about coming in when called – and, if left unattended there’s just enough potential for her to eat something she shouldn’t. So I thought she might quibble about coming back in so soon on such a nice day, but she trotted right in as soon as I whistled for her…which I was grateful for, but tiring out that quickly was yet further evidence that she’s an old doggy. *sigh*
Speaking of dogs, I’ve had a gnawin’ and a cravin’ for a cheese pizza from my local Lost Dog Cafe for a couple of days now. I almost ordered one last night, but fought the temptation…which returned at lunchtime, and I fought it off again. I’ve decided, though, that ultimately resistance is futile: I’m going to order one for tonight’s dinner, which will mean having leftovers for tomorrow’s lunch and dinner. Yum!
A few carryovers from the old thread before diving into today’s replies:
No idea. JtC, whenever you’re up for such triviality: are you looking anywhere near Philippi?
That was brilliant…dare I say, EGGcelent? 
(I can’t believe no one beat me to that!!)
Yay! I know there’s still a lot ahead, but this is such a crucial step.
Double yay! 
Same here. I actually judge people who love those kinds of things.
(Impractical Jokers or Punk’d listed as a favorite show on your dating profile? PASS.)
You definitely shouldn’t be.
Oh, that’s so wonderful!
No mean feat! Happy anniversary! 
I never read Li’l Abner, so I had to click on your link. Learned something new, I did.
UGH.
