In a general sense, Guinness beef stew sounds amazing. Sorry this one is so disagreeable.

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

I am home. The trip was great. Brother & SIL had an impromptu dance party in the stereo section of Target that managed to semi mortify their newly 15 year old, plus a couple teen girls who had set off the music. The teen wars will be interesting.
Cats are happy to see me, but clearly are suspicious of my dirty laundry. Not my fault that my fav cat of my brother's 4, Savage, also loves me & my dirty laundry.
I need to go to bed, but am wired, per usual.

It used to be amazing at this place, but anything not served in a glass has gone steeply downhill over the years. On the bright side, haven't yacked and after a several hour nap my stomach seems to have settled.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The funniest people at the airport last night were the LA people trying to explain the Boston weather to their children. "No, colder than freezing. Yes, that's a thing."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Hey, we LA people have to actively seek out below freezing weather, it doesn't just arrive. Also, we LA people, particularly those of us living in old houses, don't usually have central heating, or even much insulation, so whatever the temp outside the house will be pretty close to the temp inside it as well. Which means 40 degrees feels pretty dang COLD in the morning.

Which is just me saying, I get why the parents had to explain it, and why the kids were incredulous

I just felt so bad for them! I mean, I didn't have gloves with me, but at least I was headed straight toward them.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Burrell, as a tropical person who's had 40s mornings this month, I feel you.
