GF got home from work all excited. The kitty story got picked up by the newspaper here, and in CA. And her GM sent her a copy of the email that was forwarded to Elon that let him know about the incident. The customer had sent an email with the videos to someone at Tesla thanking GF by name and "her team" at the service center and filled with all kinds of praise, and it got forwarded up the line. Kitty was adopted by one of the techs. His wife came and picked it up.
Yeah. He's my hero.

And now my whole house is clean and I'm gonna go to Cocina Luchadoras and get tacos and sopas and agua fresca and tortas to go tomorrow morning. And maybe horchata. I've been dreaming of this food for 2 weeks now. Also, you guys, her logo: [link] I want a tshirt.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Oh Steph, how horrible for your family. I'm so sorry.
PS, nobody who has ever had any kind of experience with a car crash should listen to the first ep of the new season of Invisibilia while driving. (I, unwarned, listened to it on my commute, on which, I drove past the immediate aftermath of an obviously fatal accident. Crying and the NJ Turnpike are not a supersafe combination.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Teppy, I'm so sorry.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Success: made it on the train from Prague to Vienna, and to the hotel, which seems great.
Unsuccessful: never made a reservation for the restaurant Husband's parents recommended, and it is booked for the entire time we're here. The receptionist at the hotel was taken aback.

Teppy, I'm so very sorry. Tons of ~ma for you and yours.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!

Churched. Lunch out for Father's Day. THE CHILD SPOKE WITH PEOPLE AND ENGAGED!!!!
Now, house-cleaning weekend continues:
1st round of dealing with clothes: 80% of things in closet are now hanging up. Pulled out a dress, 3 skirts, and a purse to get rid of. Pulled out several winter items to put into storage. Drawers are organized and I pulled out 7 t-shirts to get rid of.
The mess that is my craft closet, I grabbed two pieces of fabric (multiple yards each) to get rid of. There is a ton more in that closet that needs to go.
I am not sure if y'all saw the dishes I posted on FB. I know it says I won't mail, but I will for b.org people if those are what anyone here has and needs some items.
