Wow, sarameg, how awful!
That sounds amazing, aurelia.
Bummer about the edible, meara.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
That's scary, sarameg.

unfortunately came away with achievable life goals.
Tell me more about achievable life goals and how they are unfortunate.
I am having blueberries for breakfast, coincidentally. Yum.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes, sara!
All I want to eat right now is corn, tomatoes, and blueberries. I enjoy summer produce, at least.
Less enjoyable is the fact that it is cool and rainy outside, but still hot hot hot in my apartment. I'm opening all possible windows, but really wish I could leave the back door open. I'm concerned about the cat-proof-ness of the porch back there, so.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh sarameg, how awful and scary for them. Best wishes for them going forward.
Neat, aurelia! Jealous!
Sorry the edibles were disappointing, meara. I haven't had edibles since sometime in the 70s. Only the medical variety is allowed now in Florida, but my neurologist is perfectly okay with me self medicating so I didn't request a prescription.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
That's awful, Sarameg.
I just happened to be the only one in that tour time- slot. And the only one on the bus going up to the house. The bus driver told me I was getting a $750 tour for my $25 ticket. We ran into two other tour groups of 2 each, so I guess it was just a slow time. I did the Upstairs Rooms tour and the guide kept saying "since it's just us... and taking me further into the rooms than normally allowed. She also showed me a couple of the rooms from the downstairs tour. It was very cool.

Now I'm at Ragged Point looking at the combo of fog and smoke and wondering if my plans for today are going to be thwarted by the fire north of Big Sur.

That's very cool, aurelia! The tour, not the fire.
Just lost my cat briefly -- she went upstairs! Oops. I opened my door to the front porch without checking that my mother's was closed. I'm just not going to mention it to her...

That's awesome, aurelia. Well, not the fire.
Also awesome: I have a Malarkey shirt on its way to me! I think I'm gonna get a lot of use out of that.

That is great. You know that the tour guides are going to know a lot more than they always get an opportunity to talk about.
