Summer Shack was, in fact, the lobster roll my grandmother was describing.
Heh, that's what I get for skimming.
Sent Tom off for bagels. But I'm hungry NOW!
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Concert was good, and I think my ears have stopped ringing. (Why the really tall guy had to end up in the seat in front of me, rather than the seat in front of G I don't know. )
Yay shrift for multiple job offers.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

oof. I may have agreed to one more week of teaching summer school. But this would be only 1 week and only from 9-12, which is tolerable.

So am I. But I don't want anything I have in the house (at least for l/brunch), and I'm having trouble motivating myself to go out somewhere. I thought I wanted brunchy treats earlier, but now, NSM. Le sigh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Heh, that's what I get for skimming.
I don't think I said it the first time!
I am dying of sweat, but I'm trying to wait to take a shower so I'm not all sweaty again before I go out later this afternoon. This may be a futile quest.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
We took Matilda to Children's Fairyland yesterday. It's an old children's amusement park in Oakland that was allegedly an inspiration for Disneyland. But it's way more homemade and homespun, working that fine line between quaint and creepy. It's been fixed up in recent years after a stretch where it looked like the Joker's secret lair.
Emmett was an excellent big brother and made sure Matilda had maximum fun.

More big brother points - Matilda on the balcony.
Abusing your brother for fun and amusement.
They have a whole Beatrix Potter village, so we took pictures for the Lilybean.
Matilda is immune to the Uncanny Valley.

Matilda's pictures are a joy to the heart. They seemed to have a lot of fun.
ION, reason's for today's sick morning and noon feeling found when roommate complained about the same symptoms I felt. Oy.

Ugh, Shir. Feel better!

Teppy's sister in Spidey love.
Heh! I, unsurprisingly, dressed as Spidey for Halloween many years in a row.
Emmett was an excellent big brother and made sure Matilda had maximum fun.
That picture is just perfect. I mean, REALLY. Like, enlarge and frame and hang in a prominent place PERFECT.
Cute plus creepy.
Matilda ameliorates much of the creepy.
Matilda is immune to the Uncanny Valley.
Now THAT? Is creepy. (The statue, not Matilda.)
