Am back from vacation. Was...interesting. Some good, some bad.

ita, thought of you lots. Mostly when the staff were giving us the stink-eye for cooing over (and feeding) the stray cats.

Allyson's boss needs to fuck himself. Or, you know, do his own personal shit and deal with how it comes out.

TB, if you're washing your hands and not sneezing in the food, you should be okay.

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

Timelies all!

Went to gaming tonight. It was at a Potbelly sandwich shop.(It used to be in the common area of an apartment complex, but we can't use it anymore)

I have trouble believing Canlis is the priciest restaurant in these parts. Yes, it's expensive and iconic, but I thought the Herb Farm would set you back more $$.

I find it hard to believe the French Laundry in Napa isn't on that list (not that I've gotten to go there, but it is crazy expensive). I wonder if that's potential al a carte meals.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They took the cheapest option on the menu and compared that.

Am too tired to go into details. However, learned the following from my travel companion, who is lucky not to be in jail, and feel compelled to make the following public service announcement:

If you have rented out your apartment to a snaky deadbeat you found on match.com, do not call on your brother's scary jailbird friend to "convince" the tenant to move out. Seriously. It will not go well.

I kind of forgot in the six months or so since I've seen her how much energy my vacation friend takes to not smack her silly, over this and so many other things. Oy.

So kind of a "they should film this and show it at every Xmas" thing, but as a public service annoucement then?

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

I think the most appropriate medium for this message would be "sock puppet theater."

Well that would certainly convey some of the wormier aspects more literally.

I just woke up. So much for getting up early and going shopping.
