Ugh. I had some friends over (one friend came at like 845am she also works from home, she invited another person who texted asking g if anyone was watching, anther friend came over after cutting out of work a little early) to watch the women's soccer game,. And then we LOST and it was sad. And then they left because they'd been here for like 8 hours. And yet, I'm still all "but don't you want to hang out? Do something? It's too hot to go dancing tonight! But I want friends! And realizing I have no plans for the weekend...

What is even happening?

ION, Cindy!!! It is so good to see you around.

Maria! I had a whole thing to say to you, but then I skimmed the rest of the board and my brain went numb. That said, I think you're right about nearly everything. Sorry you've been through what you have. Glad you are telling it to us straight.

Also, Teppy? You're dead right.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Also, Teppy? You're dead right.

I like the sound of that! Which thing, though? Sometimes I am a crackpot.

Aw, meara, I'm sorry. You can still make plans for tomorrow and Sunday, yes?

I am having an Icelandic Arctic Berry Ale because I happen to have one right here. I'm liking it, but I imagine not everyone would.

The linen closet in my house has been full of decades old videotapes, because my beloved was a hoarder. Videotapes are fucking heavy, but all I have to do is get them into garbage bags and haul them to the back of the truck FauxSon left for me to fill for a trip to the dump next week. So damned heavy. Such stupid things to have held on to.

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

That sounds intriguing, -t.

White ale brewed with bilberries, apparently. Berrylicious.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

When we moved, I threw out, among other tapes, the videotape of Earshot that came through the tape tree that Dana was part of--I think that's how I first "met" Dana, although I could be wrong on that. It was a moment, but I let it go. Helped along by the fact that we no longer own a VCR.

The one tape I regret tossing was the mumblety-th Rocky Horror anniversary show, when ASH sang Frankenfurter and Amber Bensen sang Janet. I've found those clips, and other performances. The one on the tape I've been unable to find anywhere else was of Eric McCormack doing a dead-on impersonation of Curry as Frank.

But even if I had it, I still have no way to play it--and it would be degraded horribly by now.
