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

OK, who has their foot resting on the Time Brake? There's no way it could be only 10:41.

edit to change 10:40 to 10:41

Punishingly Intricate

What are people's weekend plans?

Today I plan on recovering from drinking too much white wine last night by staying in and watching tv and going to bed early. (After FINALLY getting my bangs trimmed right after work thank god)

Tomorrow I ride in the morning, pick up my guitarist from the bus from NY, take him to our drummer's house to practice all together for the first time in months aieee, then get ready for our show tomorrow night than Rock for the Feast! Please let people come and buy lots of raffle tix and make us the money we need to raise!!!

Sunday probably will be raining so yoga and I hope some cleaning. Working some. And talking to my new Chicago friend in the evening as is our tradition of three weeks (squeeeeeee!).

Sous Kitchen tomorrow morning. Other than that, and my standard hikes, I have no idea.

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

ER visit either this evening or tomorrow, maybe therapeutica massage tomorrow, depending, and hopefully seeing Colin's place Sunday.

Or maybe I'll just stay in, curled in a fetal ball. That's what I want to do right now, actually.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

What are people's weekend plans?

Tomorrow evening I'm flying down to Modesto, where Ex-Army Brother and his family live, because Mom and Georgia Brother and SIL are flying out for a visit. It's...intense. Mom's cancer has metastasized, so there's always the awareness that any time I see her may be the last time.

I'll be there till Tuesday. It'll just be me, and I'm both dreading and looking forward to the trip. It'll be good to see family, and much as I love DH and Annabel, I'll enjoy the solitude of traveling alone and generally getting a break from everyday responsibilities. But there's a lot of darkness there too, you know?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm going to Boston tomorrow for a big family to-do.

No definitive plans, apart from trying to get in touch with a friend who's father passed away last weekend and see if he needs anything. Also to confirm the memorial service for the public is next weekend (the funeral was family only).

What are people's weekend plans?

Farmer's market, gardening, maybe a play. And I told my friend (Christine, msbelle.) that she could come practice her fiddle at my place if she wants to.

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

We babysat for a friend last night (she's on her own until June, as her husband is shooting a movie in Prague). Tonight we go with that same friend and her 5-year-old to see "Speed Racer." Saturday morning we get up early and clean the house like maniacs, because at noon, the poodle we hope to adopt comes by to meet our animals. Cross your fingers that everybody gets along and that the shelter lady thinks we are good candidates. Sunday is chores--laundry, gardening and going to the gym...and maybe playing with our new dog!
