The dress or the bibs? Because of the trache, Grace is constantly oozing and snotting out goo so we try to bib her as much as possible as a failing attempt to save clothes.

The dress is for a wedding.

I'm stoked about my impending trip.

Saturday is San Francisco for the wedding and staying at Hotel Diva. Sunday we are driving down to Paso Robles and staying at the decidely unglam but pricelined Holiday Inn Express. Monday and Tuesday is two nights at El Capitan Canyon in a fun tent cabin.

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

I think that's a tent tent. Real bed, but what makes the tent a cabin? I'd need indoor plumbing, but I'm diva like that.

I'm about to get dirty hand OCD. I've felt compelled to wash them randomly so many times today. They're driving me crazy. And I think I might need an ER visit tonight, which just makes it worse. And then there's the mandated lotion on its skin.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

found a bag's worth of yarn I did not really know I had.

Hee. I read this as "yam," which I think would have a different result if one found it unexpectedly in the closet.

Ooh! That reminds me, I have yarn somewhere.

Well, I got my crazy productivity goals done today. I rearranged my whole office. I cheated some by putting papers in a box rather than sorting, but I think I can finish that off tomorrow.

What I didn't get done was rehearsing, and now my playlist won't play. Oops. Guess it'll have to happen tomorrow, before rehearsal together. Hope I don't blow my voice out.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I think that's a tent tent.

Floor, possibly heat -- that looks like the tent cabins at costanoa

Oooh, that's just 5 blocks from me. You know, in case you need anything.

I'm reserving judgement on the tent "cabin".

Beth is right. floor, heat, electricity, a bed with nice linens. It's certainly not a tent tent.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I need a dress for a wedding. Today was a shopping fail. Everything looked way too young or way too matronly. I need a middle ground!

I love tent cabins. I'm a camping wuss.

ita, do you need a ride anywhere? If so, pls call me. I'm home.

I'd appreciate the heat and electricity, but it would be running water that would tip it over for me.

I think, for me, camping is best done in third world countries. Theoretically softens the delta. Theoretically. At least I won't be missing my TiVo.

Thanks for the offer, but it will be wee hours thing--basically if this days old headache wakes me in the middle of the night I'm going back in. So completely inconvenient for everyone, but gets me seen the quickest if I go in after 2 or 3. Any time before 6, otherwise I bump into the nurse's shift change and the doctors rounding.

And I need to take in my dosage recommendations because one of the ER muckety mucks sent out a memo dropping my dosage by a third, and my migraine guy wants it back up. He also wants me in for ketamine, but unless he can guarantee I'll get it, I'm not having myself admitted. It's expensive, and incredibly boring. There's only so much solitaire I can play on my phone.
