It was my second night ever in a hotel by myself
Did it feel all indulgent?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
Indeed, it did. I splurged for a nice place by the airport. Pillowtop mattress and soundproofed room. I could hear traffic, but not neighbors. I never slept so well in a hotel. Unfortunately, I didn't sleep nearly as long as I would have liked because of flights.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
libkitty, where in California are you? Are you coming to LA??

Unfortunately not. I'm in northern California and hoping to meet up with some Bay Area-istas. I gather I'd get rain anywhere in CA right now. Makes me feel like I never left home, only a little warmer.

I'm hoping to make it south when Serenity opens. It would have been all perfect in April. September is a bit problematic, but for Serenity I will try.

JPL is going to have a big dorky spacecraft robot float in the Rose Parade this year. And you can watch live robot-cam feed during the parade. Here's a link to a pdf parade graphic from the LA Times
I love the Rose Parade - the floats are such crazy works of engineering, art, and complete lunacy.

What is even happening?
libkitty, did you get to meet any of the Seattleistas?

Yeah. I can't even comprehend the scale. People are posting about stadiums full, and super-stadiums full, and every time I see the number, it's larger, and sure to double once the disease sets in. It hurts my heart, and I can't do anything but send a pittance. It feels so wrong to know so many people are suffering, and mourning, and just sit here.

for the complete lunacy part?
