Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I mean, maybe? I guess better bosses know to send their heartfelt best wishes upfront.

What's killing me is that my best wishes are heartfelt!!

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

Well, no one an say you aren't learning from this experience.

I thought I remembered there was a Buffista in Halifax, but I couldn't remember who.

Elena, who no longer visits here, is in Halifax.

OK, thanks Connie.

Hold on until you've been through a long airport security line once the vacation has started before cementing that opinion, Calli.

I will have to go through customs each way.

How long are you in town Calli?

I'm getting in Saturday evening and leaving Wednesday morning. I'm meeting up with an old college friend while I'm there. She lives one state over, and we sort of planned the trip via Twitter DMs.

I'm rather excited. It looks like there's a ton to do in Halifax, and we'll be catching part of the Busker's festival as well as multiple chances to catch fireworks. We're also taking some sort of harbor sailing cruise on Monday, which looks like the one full day that we'll be there when there'll also be sun.

I'll be back Monday afternoon/evening if you want to get together for lunch or dinner or tea/drinks on Tuesday. I'm working on Tuesday, but I am also right downtown if you're in the area.

Also If you want any recommendations for things, I'm happy to give them.

I'll have to check with my traveling buddy, but I think Tuesday is pretty flexible. It would be great to meet you!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I dunno, I'm all for being unapologetic 'this is who I am, see ya' but I'm also uninterested in dating and embracing no fucks left to give.

I am in this boat with sarameg. It's pretty nice here.

I've considered just mailing all my stuff to my destination and taking only a small carry-on on the plane from now on. Flying has become so fraught and unpleasant. Can't put electronics in your check-in luggage, but have to take them out of their carefully-packed bag in the security line. There has to be a solution for this that makes carrying more than one electronic device something less than a nightmare.

I must have hit my deductible for the year; all my prescriptions are suddenly 0 cost. Thanks, Iceland fairies!
