I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

I too was like "Allyson's nephew is a YANKEES FAN!?!?"

I am an early bird!

Our wings are not tired

Guess I should have popped back in at some point. Hopefully I'll be getting some shuteye here in a little bit.

move out and draw fire

I'm a not-so-early-bird...checked in and to all appearances no one was around.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Well, I'm up and FINALLY doing laundry, which I've put off for far too many days. I was afraid that the washers would be chugging away and I'd have to wait for them (there are only three for our complex), but they were all free (at 8:30 am on a Saturday--amazing!). So, I'm going to not only do the emergency loads in my basket, but all the others that have filled up my laundry bag as well. If I'm lucky, I'll be done by 11:00. Then, I'll be meeting a friend and her buddy and we're off to the Irish Fest and a Hothouse Flowers concert tonight! My first concert in more than 15 years, I think.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yay, Kathy! have a great time at the concert and enjoy coming home to clean laundry!

I got up at 6:00 to walk the dog and took her on a long walk which ended up at the Donut Shop. The BF will awake to a ham and cheese croissant (his favorite) as a treat. Nothing like having a nice surprise for one's lover up one's sleeve to put one in a great mood.

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

I have no lover, no dog, no croissant.

I think I'll try surfing instead.

Yeah, I meant to say "A present for one's lover, or, of course, surfing."

The evil is this way?

Oh, he is so, so, cute. I hope that baseball outfit says "Old Navy" on it, because dude, when I saw the pinstripes...

You thought "CUBBIES"!!!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

So, more packing for us today. Then we go to Reston Fest to see the Austin Lounge Lizards. Whee!
