    Last night I went to bed early so I could get up early for the event at 8am and for the first time in weeks I forgot to set my alarm and woke up 8 minutes after the event ended. :/

    More animal group names that I just love, a group of bats is called a cauldron, elk are a gang, giraffes' are a tower, a stand of flamingos, a siege of herons, a parliament of owls, and a knot of toads.

    A flock of ravens is called a conspiracy, sloths are a snuggle, and penguins in water are a raft while on land they're a waddle. Not a joke but I just thought this was cool

    Alright fine, no jokes today, yes I've been keeping up with my challenges as best I can, I wasn't in town this Saturday but otherwise I've been able to do every daily challenge I'd set out to do. I've been wearing a lot more sweatshirts because of how cold the house is these days

    A string walks into a bar. The bartender says: "Sorry, we don't serve string here." So the string leaves, ties himself once, and messes up his hair. He walks back in and the bartender says: "Aren't you the string from a little while ago?" to which the string replies: "Frayed Knot"

    You hear about the time I bought shoes from a drug dealer?
    I don't know what they were laced with, but I was tripping all week
