Did everybody else know about the Steven Universe episodes?

FIVE WEEKS OF NEW EPISODES.

I'm just so excited.

Really got into the last storyline in Dumbing of Age

in which Sal is Sal and Amber is Amber and everybody has some real growth and emotional resolutions. Somewhat less enthused about the current one, which appears to be about Walky being Walky and Billie being annoying... I mean... there's a lot less to work with there. I just don't like them as much. (Also, somebody seriously needs to shake Joyce and make her stop... being... like that.)

Hey, remember that Bush, Sr. poll I told you about?

It turns out that they do not, in fact, moderate comments. Of course, that may be because they don't get enough comments to make it worth their while.

So it seems that when my dentist said that the teeth cleaning was $125 per session

I misheard him and what he was actually saying is $125 per section, two sections per session.

Which means the price of this teeth cleaning has doubled.

Argh.

OMG THERE IS A SEQUEL TO UNUSUAL CHICKENS FOR THE EXCEPTIONAL POULTRY FARMER!?

WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS!?

Unusual Chickens for the Exceptional Poultry Farmer is the rare book that I believe in pressing into every child's hand. It is sweet and adorable, it has great illustrations, it's diverse, and it has magical chickens. What's not to love?

Are You Ready To Hatch an Unusual Chicken turns out to be just as great! Sophia keeps taking care of her chickens, goes to middle school - and gets new chicks to take care of, with new, even more unusual powers! Highly recommended.
