I’m infuriated and laughing after watching this video

Flights to/from San Juan have been purchased. Jet Blue decided to charge us 5 times for the same transaction so that’s a lovely hold on my credit card right now.

We had our annual Christmas party yesterday and one of my husbands college roommates has a longstanding tradition of doing a prank of some kind each year.

One year he hid the shower curtain. Another year he took all the lightbulbs out in our bedroom. Another year he had stickers made of his face with a Santa hat on and hid them all over the house in random places (think under the food scale, back of the coffee maker, etc.

This year? He hid 3 of these in the house. We’ve found 2 but can’t find the 3rd one and it’s driving me f***ing insane.

I was sitting in the living room and all of a sudden there was this very loud noise, sounded like a pack of dogs or coyotes, I thought. It was driving Hattie nuts. Then my neighbor called me to come outside. It wasn't dogs or coyotes. It was owls. They were so loud! I don't think I've ever heard one in person, not even at a zoo.

This is a picture she got of one of them a couple months ago, on our roof. I'm going to have to watch and make sure one of them doesn't take a run at Hattie when we're outside.

But it looks so cool! I'm becoming a real wildlife nut lol.

Why are we not discussing these drones? Is that considered political?

Because it’s insane. And people not talking about it is more insane.

Have swapped beaches for mountains. That's the beauty of NZ, whatever terrain you like, most of it is here. Great food too!

I am pretty sure discussion would end up being political. Best to stick to electronic crickets and top hats.
