I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Jeez. First we had the PG&E "planned" power outages, then the earthquake, now a refinery in the East Bay is on fire. Rough time for the area.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I was just thinking today how I used to know a stevedore.
"What's a stevedore?"
JfC, msbelle. Hoping the kinks shake out of that timeline a whole lot better than at the present.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Survived a two hour meeting and then dinner with the people who pay me. Woot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Cool beans! Was he a visiting Honk-er?

Oh man, argh. My sister has started dating again (her husband of 30 years died 2 years ago) and her adult daughters aren't happy about it. Everyone is unhappy and I'm just trying to be supportive and acknowledge everyone's feelings. Bah. Do not want.

Yikes, Suela, that's tough.
Just landed back in the states! But customs doesn't open for three more minutes so they can't let us off the plane yet.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Time for an auntly talk with your niece? Acknowledging her genuine feelings, but pointing out that her father would have wanted her mother to go be happy. (I'm presuming on the kind of person a sister of yours is likely to have been married to for 30 years, of course.)
