Hi, I'm Meri. I live in California and I love Star Trek, Wales (yes, the country), aviation, geology, and cats. This blog is only updated sporadically because I work for a major airline and they basically own my ass.
Don't wanna be here? Send us removal request.

One morning I was startled awake by a very loud engine revving and was very confused because it was obviously not a truck or motorcycle, but sounded familiar. It took me about a full minute to realize that someone had full-throttled their Cessna practically on my roof.
I immediately got on flight radar to see what idiot was buzzing my house. We live a few blocks from a busy, un-towered airport and pilots routinely “play” in the pattern but usually not so close to our house.
I was complaining about it to a pilot friend later, and he started laughing and admitted it was probably him, practicing for his CFI rating. He got swatted.
I told him if he crashes in the pool it’s his own damn fault, and I’ll only fish him out after I stop laughing.
love me a good cessna 172 but can they not fly directly over my house when im trying to sleep

to me those enormous fuckoff huge pickup trucks with the halogen brights are like animals that have been so severely inbred for an extreme appearance that they’re constantly in pain. Like to me this is mutilation via selective breeding

cats are like medieval royalty in the way that they both demand great Etiquette and Respect. while also shitting in buckets. very unusual combination. really works for them.

i will defend every nonamerican who doesnt know shit about the geography of the country because they hear about us too much anyways. you are not only allowed but encouraged to get everything wrong.
#We don't even know stuff about us#I know a lot more about Britain than I do about Minnesota#plan your road trips carefully#there are parts where there's literally nothing for hundreds of miles#terrifying but great for stargazing

I was in the vicinity, but I was Very Small, so unaware of KITT flying over my head if he ever did.
I would have very much been the child that walked up and patted and talked to KITT.
can you imagine being like a resident in southern California in the 80s and occasionally seeing the Black Leather Jacket In The Summer Tall Man and the mysterious black car

they should make a saluting emoji that looks tired. exhausted even. one that got to the airport at 3:30 AM perhaps. dare I say a saluting emoji that's about to stuck in an overnight layover in dallas. hypothetically!

I guess some people might be confused by the shepherd having to hold down the sheep and the sheep appearing to be in distress, but same thing happens when a toddler has to get their first haircut! The child/sheep is terrified because they don't know it won't hurt.
For children, we have the cute firetruck/police car barber chairs. Maybe we should do something similar for sheep?
I know that no knowledge is innate, and there are many things I myself don't know that are ubiquitous to other people, but I'm nevertheless kind of blown away whenever I see someone who sincerely believes that you can't get wool off an animal without killing the animal.
#my nephew wisely chose the police car to sit in for his first haircut#mom is a cop#and yes he screamed until distracted by the police car
