Yup. Might not be on her timescale, but couldn't hurt to mention.
My god...he's gonna do the whole speech.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Our dance group had a gig at the Maryland Faerie Festival. Went pretty well, and we were able to find someone to look after Mr. S, as I was needed to dance pretty much every dance, and Gary plays guitar for the group.
I will admit, the fact that we were leaving our child at Unseelie Court did give me pause.(Although, if they replaced Mr. S with a changeling, I'm not sure we'd know the difference. :) )

Thrive to spite them
So far I have not won enough to fund or partially fund Buffista Island . M won a $350ish jackpot and my biggest was $135. Right now I'm a little over what I brought.
We were sitting next to someone who won $16,000. And I saw someone else who was getting a receipt from the staff and then was on the phone. Not sure how much he won.
The buffet was ok. The hotel Jacuzzi tub was fun. M made sure we brought bubble bath so lots of bubbles.
Now we are chilling in the hotel. I was getting a little overwhelmed with the sounds so we called it a night.

Woo! Got a prompt & resonable response from a junk hauler, in Waverly even. So I can get rid of some stuff, like my old loveseat.
Which, fuck, means I'll need to shake it out for cattoys & who knows what. & make my basement accessible. Which currently contains a shitload of cardboard from the litter box enclosure that arrived after recycling day.

More than a year after he died, my father started receiving new issues of Discover magazine. WTF, people.

TUESDAY JUNK HAUL!
I think Fringe would be a good move for Alison, creatively. She's got an extensive client list of routine people like me (except, I let her do what she wants) & is the one they direct to for new styles & I think she could play more there. But she still goes and does her nursing home bound clients on off days. But I know nothing about the salon biz.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I made pancakes for breakfast to confirm that I am just not that into pancakes! Oh well.

You guys -- Maine is doing ranked-choice voting! (I'm currently learning on NPR...)

San Francisco did ranked-choice voting, which is why it took all week to find out who the new mayor is.

They've got it pretty well down in Cambridge, MA, I think -- I'm pretty sure they get results same-night now.
In other news, my most embarrassing housekeeping success of the day: I just threw away all the canned food my grandmother had stored in the basement. My grandmother who died five years ago.
