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

We've been moving plant pots around on the side of the house.

I misread that and transposed "plant pots" and thought, hmm, guess Bev has a new side line.

So luncheon was both spiffy and casual. It was held at Richard Riordan's house, former mayor of LA. He has his own chapel, yo.

I'm watching BBC World News. Did they replace newscasters with androids without telling us?

I like large statement planters with assortments of happily coexisting flowers and vertical leaves and things. He likes wee litters of pots with a different thing in each pot. Coexistence is hard.

Can you plant a bunch of the little pots together inside the big planters?

I've had 3 necessary showers today:one to wake up & needed shaving, one post swim and one post BAGGING UP ALL THOSE GODDAMN LINDEN PETAL THINGS. I was so gross after. It was sultry out.

Had fresh green peas in cilantro lime dressing (meant to add corn, but it would need defrosting and I'm that lazy now) and fresh eastern shore strawberries.

Though about putting in the ac but humidity and temp got reasonable at sunset, so I may make it to the cooler first week in June....

I've committed to bra shopping tomorrow. There was one place (Soma) that has possibilities, but by the time I hit them last week, I couldn't handle more than one try on, I was done. So there will be that.

I aborted mission the last 3 times I tried to go shopping for bras. It's that onerous.

Even when successful, pretty much puts me in the worst mood ever.

I've found a bra that fits well and I can buy online. I will give their manufacturer ALL MY MONEY FOREVER!

I'm watching BBC World. They have a slightly portly older woman with no makeup and poorly styled gray (should I say grey?) hair as the main speaker. I may never stop watching (until sobriety).

yep. I went to Lane Bryant and it took me at least 4-5 tryons and I just gritted my teeth through all of it. But I have three that are pretty good enough.
