Oh, Cass you made me cry, I'm fragile at weird times.

Lord, I can't imagine how to say, yeah, don't come up weds, I'm still dying, but my best friend is coming into town. And I don't want to put Carol in that spot. OTOH, she hugged me upon greeting and leaving like she never wanted to let go. Which I guess...she doesn't. I wouldn't.

Trying to re-acclimate at b.org. Read the entire day's Natter but of course there are still tons of things I don't know. Treat me like an amnesiac...my memory's that bad anyway.

The short version of things is that after 25 or so years living in the SF Bay Area, disability/finances have forced me to move back in with my parents in South Pasadena. I'm still neck-deep in moving boxes and going through some of the most severe culture shock I've ever experienced. Still, there are good sides to it as well. There's a swimming pool so I can add that to my physical therapy. I'm getting to know some of my younger siblings better again.

I hope to dive back in to b.org, meet folks in the LA area, make new friends, concentrate on my music/art, etc. I sold my car 2 years ago so I'm mostly on foot/bike. Blew my knee out in June so I'm being cautious about even that for now.

South Pasadena is showing "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" as a free outdoor movie this Saturday at 8pm so if some folks want to get together for a little evening picnic that would be cool.

Hello again, Buffistae.

Good to see you again, Spidra! I'm sorry about the rough circs leading up to the move, but I hope it's a good restart for you in LA.

Spidra, it's nice to see you. Movies are a no go in our world, but we do go to South Pas frequently, mainly for the Farmers Market on Thursdays. Though not tomorrow, most likely.

Anyone want to see pictures from my trip today to The Mormon Sin City, West Wendover, Nevada, where cheap northern Utahns go to play?

Thanks, amych! Cool, Kat. Lemme know in future. I was so busy doing moving/cleaning last Thursday that I missed it, but I'mma go tomorrow.

Thanks for the Inception fic recs. They are being slowly consumed, smonster. I also need to track down the BDSM Care Bears story. I find myself wondering all sorts of stuff. Do I know the source material well enough? Are they all the same gender? Will it be slash? Are they related? Will it be incest? What's the characterisation like? Is it crack? Angst? Torture porn? Short fic? My mind is boggled.

Now, reading the author's note, there is also non-con. Huh. But at least no mpreg or snuff.

Care Bears snuff would be hysterical, if possibly traumatic to those with childhood memories. Fluffy stuffing everywhere!

Hmm. It's not as sexy as I was expecting.

No, don't judge me. It's just that the care bears didn't really seem to get off on it much. There was the one sub, but he's not even been Dommed properly since it doesn't look like he can use his safe word, and apart from some random geometric jizzing, there's no lust. It's just punishment, and the sub gets the worst of it.

It's a rape rack, with torture and then cake.

Good to see your pixels, Spidra. I hope the move brings many many good things.
