Meet Mr. Walking Stick. I met him yesterday at one of our more backwoods office locations. He was longer than my hand. He's the longest Phasmatodea I have ever seen. If I had been in possession of a miniature leash, I would have strapped him in and taken him for a nice long walk. We could have participated in some bird watching, and shared a cheese-and-tomato sandwich. Instead, I chose to go back inside to help one of my division managers organize his office. Something tells me I made a poor choice.
Notice how Mr. Walking Stick is "cessible." That's my favorite part about him.
If insects aren't appealing enough, I have P1 suckling a P2! P2 should just go ahead and grow some milk-heavy teats already because it seems P1 is not going to give up hope that he'll squeeze some juice out of poor P2's nips. Sometimes P1 even tries non-traditional areas like the neck or leg. He's that needy.
I need to record the slurp slurp slurp of P1. It's a frantic susurrate of sucking. At first it seems cute, then it isn't. I would hate to be P2 with all that grabby-paw action on my goods.
Kittens learned to climb up my body today. Something I didn't know about myself: I can only pry one kitten off my torso at a time. It requires two hands: one to grab the kitten, and the other to unhook the claws. With two kittens attached, I just give up and yell "fuck" a lot.

Two questions.
1. What is a peach buckle?
2. Did the cream corn taste of garmonbozia?
1.
Peach Buckle
Serves 8, Prep time: 15 mins, Total time: 60 mins
Ingredients
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for skillet
• 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 pounds peaches, pitted, peeled, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (4 cups)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/3 cup sliced almonds
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Butter a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, nine-inch square baking pan, or a two-quart shallow baking dish.
In a large bowl, cream butter and 3/4 cup sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, and vanilla; beat to combine.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. With mixer on low speed, gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture; beat until incorporated. Fold in peaches.
Spread batter in prepared skillet. In a small bowl, mix together remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon, and almonds. Sprinkle mixture over top; bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and topping is golden, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes before serving.
2. Oh, no, that cream corn tasted of orgasms and delight. Trust me. No pain and sorrow to be found there.
