I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Dana, I would do an escape room with you!

I feel like we would do well.

I went to drama school, so I eat all the team building stuff up. "I" statements all the way!

Yikes, Sue, that's a lot. Health~ma for your dad. Take care of yourself.

Leg~ma, Gud. I'm glad you're getting care. If you're not already on probiotics, you might want to start some. Take care of yourself as well.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Leg~ma, Gud. I'm glad you're getting care. If you're not already on probiotics, you might want to start some.

Definitely. IV antibiotics are pretty big guns, and while they'll wipe out the infection, they'll also indiscriminately wipe out your good gut flora, which sucks. Probiotics will help you avoid that.

I have called and made a dentist appointment, and I've scheduled a quick trim at the salon for this Friday. This is not a major amount of Adulting, but it feels like it with the work projects that I'm on this year.

My company just picked up a contract programming the control systems for a new escape room.

Ooh! Tell us which company so we can drill you for cheat codes!

Hello, people. I'm now 33 and slightly drunk.

Pride is in Jerusalem tomorrow. I worry about this one. There are ugly tensions, thanks to bots, and at least three counter demonstrations will take place trying to disrupt the parade. With that, we are expecting bigger numbers than ever.

Sadly, police said "no. nope. no no no. never" to accessible vehicle in the parade's route, but we do have this year transcription services in a WhatsApp group and I actually have 90% of the speeches and songs right now in my email to help with that. That's a big progress.

Also, I should be sleeping.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Happy Birthday, Shir--or belated Happy Birthday, whichever's appropriate.

I hope Pride goes well.

Happy Birthday, Shir!

And Happy Pride! Sounds like you've done a lot of work prepping. I hope things go smoothly (and you remember to pause now and then and enjoy yourself!)
