My sheltered 17-year-old niece is on FB, I use it for professional networking, and there are things my mother doesn't need to know.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

TCG took ltc to the library, errands, and lunch earlier today. Came home with coffee for me, and now he has her outside doing yardwork. It seems that Mother's Day came early this year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Personal services day for me -- massage and my first pedicure of the year. I didn't wait quite long enough to put my shoes back on, so they already look chipped, but oh well.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well, the first attempt at Avengers was a bust. Our usual, slightly scary theater is almost always mostly deserted, but it was mobbed today. Next try, tomorrow, 9:30AM.

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

Timelies all!

Having a party tonight for my (belated) birthday. Have no idea how many people are coming.

84 degrees high today, 54 degrees on Monday, with rain. Last week it would have been snow I guess. When I wanted it to stop being February, I didn't mean that I wanted it to be June.

Our wings are not tired.

Not sure when we will fit in movie time. I am at least partly spoiled but wasn't avoiding them.

Well done TCG!!

Enjoy the partying, Sheryl.

At my sister's house for her birthday today. Going wedding dress shopping tomorrow.

Good god, that goes for me, too. I'm friends with most of Tim's family and a nun.

re: Antiques Roadshow: It's sad when people get a high valuation for something they like and they say "Oh, no" and look horrified and talk about they couldn't possibly keep it now. Maybe some of it is security fears, but I get the impression that they don't think they're allowed to own something valuable, like it's above their station. It was a lovely thing that made them happy, but then it becomes something "too grand" for them. The appraisers are always so happy when someone nods firmly and says "I'm still going to wear it/use it/have it out."

Ah, the British: an excited appraiser looking at a historically significant item: "It's going to take me a while to get over this. It's going to take a couple of bars of chocolate and a cup of tea."
