Well, I failed to weed and mow like I planned, but I watched Inception instead, so there's always the possibility that my yard is just a projection of my subconscious.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'll keep you apprised of the goings on. These are tickets I can't arrange myself or they'd probably be bought (we need to do the whole group together and the cc I share with them has a limit below what 6 fricking tickets to AUS are gonna cost, go figure. I could use mine, I guess, but it's easier to just go along for the ride here.)
But no way am I making this trip hopping a domestic to international in one same-day connection when I can see friends too!

[link] This is the tour. Some variations are being made because we're such a large group with 2 little kids. I'd like to get some basic scuba instruction beforehand so I'm comfortable (hahah, I'm not used to open water, just have to hope I can get used to the kit) diving the GBR.
(I still can hardly believe we are doing this. But the boys have their passports!)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That trip looks amazing. I'd want to do it!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow, that looks incredible.

INORITE?!! Lots of opportunities for individual exploring, lots of things I wouldn't know about. And I get my own room (they offered that gratis thank god) and we got upgraded to the fancy pants traincar ( [link] also without extra cost. Hee!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
This is the tour.
Wow! I didn't realize it was for the eclipse. I have all of the happy for you jealousies.
I have all of the laundry in the dryer now. Day accomplished.
Also I thought I was being freakishly overheated just in my body because I was out until just after noon today and it was gorgeous. Except, apparently, it also heated up sometime late in the day. So it's not me being overheated, it's actually much warmer than I thought.
Someone less delicate should Google Hot Honeys and tell me what the hell they are selling as a Nascar sponsor. I mean, it can't be anything that isn't family friendly, right? Surely porn can't be on the hood. I mean, Perky Jerky wasn't porn. Even though it sounds like a twink jack off flick, I think it was just caffeinated meat.

Cass, it looks like they're spicy honey-roasted peanuts.

My family uses solar eclipses as an excuse to go to interesting places. It is kind of a Thing. So far: APO (ok, not exotic, and a partial,) southern Africa, Mongolia, Nepal and Bhutan and now Australia. My parents trip to Peru and my other travels are independent of orbital happenstance.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow, sara, that looks amazing. And then I'd totally call that Aussie ex and we could have outback Ayers rocking dingo shocking sex where he comes from down under...boom.
Sorry.
I think he has a kid now.
So, you know. No sexy sex. He's all ruined now.
My mother tried to get me agitated about our cousin Hughgine (I figure, if you're not agitated by that...what's the fact that he's 55 dating a 22 year old younger than some of his 9 or 10 kids gonna do?) and then remembered who she was talking to and stopped.
Except, my mother isn't supposed to think I have an opinion on age difference in relationships, because I present as pretty clearly aromantic (yes, using that word too) to her. Clearly and deliberately. Hell, maybe that's it--me shtupping a 17 year old is clearly not romantic in the least.
