I'm going to the 2:50, so I'll either see you at the movie, or coming out of it.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well, dammit. For one heart-fluttering second I thought you were in the Bay Area for the day, and I was going to POUNCE. Also, shake you for not telling anyone ahead of time, but mostly POUNCE.
Perkins, I'm up for it depending on how the skating plans shake out (I'm going to wait an hour out of respect for the Sundayness of today, then call Charlotte for plannage), and Hec is pondering. The penguin movie, you and Sparky are all big draws, but schlepping across the bridge and back, NSM. What theater and what time are you going?

Timelies, folks! Hope everyone is having a good Sunday. We played tennis and then lay around the house. It was good.

Perkins, have fun at the movie! You'll be in my neighborhood (well, sort of), but I'll be in the city for the afternoon, bingeing on Buffy season 4. Hush! Wheeee!
There's a great neighborhood coffee shop right by the theater called Gaylords that has Double Rainbow ice cream. You should go there. t she says authoritatively
I'm off to walk the Beast, buy new dog food (because he's decided he doesn't like the stuff he's been eating for the last four years), and head into the city. Have a lovely day, all!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The Piedmont, in Oakland, at 2:35.
I know it's a trek across the bridge for you all. I've made Sparky make it a few times, so I thought I'd drive over to her this time.
Just FYI, it is also playing at the Clay, on Fillmore, at these times 12:00, 2:15, 4:30, 7:00, 9:15.

eta: Hi Raquel!
Consuela, I'll mention Gaylords. Sparky mentioned Fentons' for ice cream, so I suspect food will be involved.

Oooh, Fenton's is also nice. It's more of a traditional old-school ice cream parlor. Gaylord's is definitely a coffeeshop.

Thrive to spite them
I went over to Mom's and got a radio from her place and called her and gave her an update. Then when I came home the power was off. Unlike at Dad's the water isn't dependent on the electricty (and I have a gas water heater) so I was able to clean up a bit and take a nice shower.
It hasn't been raining really hard, but it's been really windy.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I skipped a bunch and didn't even namecheck, I am so lazy.
From Friday, I guess: If I could've gone anywhere this weekend, I would have gone to somewhere quiet with a swimming pool.
Everyone facing storms, be careful.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It occured to me earlier that I do actually have kind of a porch, so I just spent a while out on my fire escape, but now the sun has moved too far over to hit it. But now I'm thinking I should buy one of those little low beach chairs to use out there. And also on the beach, of course, but I don't actually go to the beach that much.

We can't actually use our big wonderful balconies too much because of the stray cats. I was mobbed by five of them this evening when I went out onto the back balcony. The front one that's a level up, and therefore cat-safe, has the awnings down against the sun, otherwise it stays about 80 degrees inside.
I just got back from feeding the landlord's cats. The scaredy-cat male has pried off the kickplate under one of the kitchen counters, and is under the cupboards down at the other end. The kickplate lying in the middle of the floor tipped me off...but then the kitty gave away his hiding place by mewing piteously at me to bring his people back.
