Among the things I am washing are new bras I got at Macy's yesterday. I've been wearing bras from Target and/or TJMaxx for years, so I had some sticker shock! My mother was like, Yeah, these are not expensive bras... And there were good deals -- buy 2, get 1 free AND 15% off. But still.
Kaylee: You're nice, too. Mal: No, I'm not. I'm a mean old man.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Grocery run today, plus Gary's mom is stopping by to see the baby.

My sympathies, Juliebird; it's such a fraught situation. Much love to you.
In a shallow new, I am officially 43 years old! Had a lovely small get together last night -- a few former students (they're all in their mid-20's (!!) and I'm mucho proud of them!)
And dcp came and I hope he had fun: it was lovely for Buffistas to rep IRL.

Happy birthday!
I have started sauerkraut, caramelized a bunch of onions, and boiled potatoes for salad. Now I wish I had some ham, because potato and ham salad seems like a thing that would work for lunch tomorrow. Potato salad and pepperoni (which is the only protein currently in my fridge) makes less sense.

Many happy returns, Strix!
IDK, potato and pepperoni salad sounds pretty good to me.

Happy birthday, Strix!
I have been to the farmers market, where I picked up empanadas, flowers, and vegetables. I probably should clean up and throw on a dress so I can peruse the farmers market at the Ferry Building before brunch.

Did my part to support my Y pool program and got my car washed. Those guys took serious offense to some of the spots I've never had any luck with. Kelli was laughing at them and rolling her eyes. "Guys and cars. Now I know why they make fun of me for my dirty car."
And they'll be open tomorrow!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am on my way to the farmers market at the ferry building!
I am not wearing a dress though.

I am wearing a dress, but probably not going to hit the farmers' market.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
mac is furious with me. He wants to go to the schoolyard nearby, but not super nearby and try out some bar exercises. This schoolyard is empty almost all the time and he does not go there with friends on a regular basis, so it is not as if he is a known face around there. He wants to go by himself and I won't let him. Either I go with the dog and walk the 2 block perimeter sidewalk while he does his thing, or he gets friends to go with him.
I am terrified of letting him go to an empty place by himself. If it was a more used park where there would be people milling about, walking, kids playing, that would be different. This is absolutely the situations where my head goes to worse case scenarios.
