Shit's all sorts of different now.

Kay. I'll also bring Em's eskimo jacket.

Note, these are 5 costume changes in Vegas.

How much room can five thongs and a bunch of big-ass feathers take up?

Oh, I don't know...

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Would my wool peacoat be out of line for the trip to Alcatraz?

How chilly is Alcatraz? I keep thinking that if I pack things that are appropriate here, they should be fine there since it's a tad bit warmer there than here.

Wool coat seems excessive to me. Or is that just the warm-weather-acclimated-LAer needs warmer clothing?

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

Important night tour info I just this minute found out (because it's not listed on their website, and I had to call Blue & Gold and get transferred around until they could find someone who knew):

The tour is 3 hours long.

Holy crap.

I mean, it'll still be amazing and well worth it, but damn, that's long. Dress warm, if you have Emeline bring a stroller for when she inevitably zonks right the hell out, line your pockets with snacks, and maybe we should check into either the availability of coffee or whether we're allowed to bring a thermos of our own.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It won't be that chilly on Alcatraz. But it will probably be colder on the ferry boat ride across the Bay.

On Thursday, I am collecting Teppy at SFO at 5:30 and Kate P. at 8:00.

I can take one more person that's arriving in that zone between 5:30 and 8:00. Anybody? We'd be hanging out until Kate arrived and then swooping directly into the City.

After sundown, rocky island, non-heated stone/brick/concrete prison, on the Bay = wool coats for all, not just the LAistas.

At least an hour of that will be the Ferry back and forth. But yeah, that's longish.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

At least an hour of that will be the Ferry back and forth. But yeah, that's longish.

Then there's the one hour and forty-five minutes where they lock you in solitary....

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Finishing up aimless, pointless, feckless, and graceless projects that got dumped on me at the last minute. I'm taking tomorrow to wash, iron, and pack various things for my trip to SF.

See you on the west coast!
