You can have a cabana without having a pool. QED
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

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

Consuela, it sounds like you might be in the Hotel Circle area? It is very un-pedestrian friendly. There's dozens of hotels all strung along I-8. One of the larger malls in San Diego is at the junction of I-8 and US163, Fashion Valley. I liked it a lot as it had a Nordstrom's. Also, it's not that far from Mission Bay (Sea World!) and Old Town. If this is the area you're speaking about.
Cass, I am so sorry about the niecephews, what a rotten thing to have happen. Search~ma.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
JFC, in the 20 minutes since I got home, I saw that my cat puked on my bed, so put the bedding in the washer, and tried to help my mother recover from a computer hack, which I ultimately gave up on and told her to call the Geek Squad, which she should have done in the first place, not the "Microsoft" number that appeared on her screen.

Oh yeah, I hated the Hotel Circle hotels in San Diego. Bleh.
Idly looking at houses in the new location, and boy, there's a lot of barn and barn-adjacent decoration.
But the real question is, how much ship lap is there?!?!
So the business development guy I was meeting with (and a project manager, to pitch to a prospective client here in Seattle) decided to friend me on FB (he's also a dancer) and he looked at my profile pic and went "oh, the blue hair is so cool, why did you change it?" I was like "uh...I figured it was not business-appropriate for this meeting?" He said "eh, it's Seattle". Dang!

I have a fucking awful day ahead of me tomorrow. At least my pool is open though a good outdoor Druid swim would be nice. Predict working late because of others fuck ups and being bitter.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It's pretty much a nightmare right now. My sister is having a breakdown. And I can't have one publicly or even express my rage and my frustration and basically my helplessness on Facebook. Because that isn't what I am using Facebook for this last three weeks. It's a tool.
This is a nightmare and I just want my whole family to wake up and get group texts with pictures of their first day at school and then have the day spent with phones randomly going off because some people don't realize it's a group text and they basically replied all.

Jesus, Cass - that is a total nightmare. Your poor sister. Those poor kids! Holy shit. I'm so, so sorry.

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.
It's so hard, Cass. Words cannot express how much I wish your family could wake up from that nightmare.
