Our wings are not tired.

A heartfelt thank you to those of you who sent on funds for Deb G. Erika and I are amazed at your generosity. Thank you again.

Punishingly Intricate

Holy Heck, you guys, I'm headed to Rehoboth Beach tomorrow to ride 140 miles back to Baltimore to raise money for Moveable Feast.

Buffistas have been so generous in terms of donations and all-important encouragement and moral support. If I could ask for one more huge thing? Some wishes/prayers or whatever you think would work for minimal-no rain and minimal wind on Saturday and Sunday while we are riding? Thanks! You are truly a force for good.

Oh! And my team has raised 94% of our fundraising goal as of a few minutes ago! Go us!!! If you'd like to donate, there's definitely still time (and need, of course):

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Our wings are not tired.

Suzi's "Farewell Brunch" (at my place in San Bruno, CA) will now be on: Saturday the 28th of June! From Noon-3.

(I get back from vacation on the 2nd, have a wedding out of town on the 7th, birthday is the 14th, and b.org F2F in Madison is the 22nd. So, that leaves the 28th.)

I really hope this doesn't mean any previous "yes" will be turned into a "no" but I am sorry; I just know that if I kept it to the 15th, I'd end up spending my birthday cleaning and prepping, and as much as I love being a martyr (eye roll), I don't love it that much!

We will have mimosas (or screwdrivers!), coffee, tea, fritatas, quiches, salad, bagels and all sorts of delights.

Please email me at profile addy if you can make it.

move out and draw fire

We're taking Legion to the vet this afternoon. He hasn't eaten in a week, can't climb the stairs anymore, and is showing all the signs of wanting to go meet the stone cats.

A little ~ma for us and the bestest kitty in the world?
