Someone lost a fine rooster the Wegmans parking lot and must be sad. I am glad to have rescued him before he got run over.

I made a thing

It is pretty out here.

One beautiful and comfortable ring from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social and one pinchy uncomfortable plastic dosimeter ring from radiation safety which is too big for pinky and too small for anything else.

Neat! I needed some inspiration to sketch *something* this week and get started up again. #OliveArtClub

Three rings on one hand! I don’t think I have ever hand three rings one hand before! All from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social Looking forward to my newest order so I can try this on both hands at the same time. Small silly goals.

And he has decided to help me do the laundry. I guess I am not doing that load next. Helpful kitty.

Proof of cat. Still being helpful.

This took an unreasonable amount of time to sketch out. 🧪

Something pretty for a stupid week. Purple Crownvetch. Here used for erosion control but considered an invasive species in some states but still really pretty.

Wandering around looking for the cat, calling her name ... look up in access to attic and find this.

I found a nice place to hang out during my daughters music lesson.

New drawing a thing. Inspired by the flowers I found on a walk on Saturday.

@peculiarityshop.bsky.social pretties showed up today - early this time. Tracking showed them arriving Monday. Snek I already had but the rest are new today. Thank you!

Drawing a thing and trying to learn some botany terminology.

I drew a thing. Trying to make sure I start drawing again.

Might you tell me what this stamp could be conveying? @peculiarityshop.bsky.social I have been cleaning and stumbled on this in an unlikely location (a bag of disintegrating shell art jewelry tucked into 'forensic trace evidence' practice samples!)

Feeling sexy in my lab gear. Yep.

Got bored in lab while running stds so I slipped 1 of my @peculiarityshop.bsky.social rings into the pXRF (portable Xray fluorescence) unit - use them to determine elemental composition. It shows 91.48% silver (±2sigma value has to do w/ how ideal the spectra is) w/ the instrument set up for soils.

Whitworth Ferguson Planetarium at Buffalo State University is holding 2 science summer camps July 13-17: Explore Our Solar System (kids going into 6-8) July 27-31: Build a Living World (kids going into 10-12) More information and links to registration at planetarium.buffalostate.edu/summer-camps

More pretties from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social and another new summer dress. Between sensory issues, atypical body construction and just generally hating shopping it was really nice to find some fem things that are comfortable and fun. Match isn’t as cool as the snake dress but still makes me happy

Pretties from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social go nicely with my new summer dress. Yay!

I have help with grading.

Happy Caturday from this sexy boy.

Rochester Shale from the historical geology field trip a few weekends ago. All the bryozoans and crinoid bits and trilobits - amazing storm bed where we were. ⚒️🧪

Today sucked but the trees are blooming.

If you find anythings like this @peculiarityshop.bsky.social and it isn't >$200 I would be interested. Doesn't have to be silver either - just not junk/pot metal stuff.

If perchance you find something like this for big fingers (12 or +) I would be very interested. Not specific about stones. But not until after my next paycheck!

Aaaa. I was actually waiting for this one. And mow I am confused.

In the field at Penn-Dixie today for Historical Geology. We found so many trilobites!!! Just a weee bit damp. ⚒️🧪
