And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Oh dear, Sheryl -- did I mention how glad I was to chat with you for a bit?

Gud, take care of yourself! I'm so glad that you've got a new car to play with and enjoy!

I lasted at Boskone for about an hour after the last panel. Had some outstanding conversations with friends seen not often enough, watched/listened to a couple stimulating panels, but it was a relief to go home to real food and quiet music.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I hardly got any sleep last night, either.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ugh, that's the worst, Tom. I hope it breaks soon.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh dear, Tom. Sending healing ~ma.

That sounds high enough to go to Urgent Care, frankly. Hydrate, please?

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

It was nice chatting with you, too, Theo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Take care of yourself, Tom! Do you have ibuprofen?

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

Feel better, Tom.

Sheryl, it was 3 AM for us. We're sharing a room with ltc this weekend at Mom's but she is supposed to sleep on the cot next to our bed.

I promise, at some point the toddlers really stop wanting to sleep with you. Although now that my 25 year old son and wife live here if I am in bed when they come home at night they both come in and climb on my bed to chat with me. For a limited time, then they go to their own area! I find it charming now.

Speaking of the kiddos, DIL is 25 today and they are in St. Petersburg (FL) for a few days on vacay to celebrate.

Did I tell y'all about this? We've started using Microsoft Teams at work. I got invited to a new team. It's called "DTF Solicitation Best Practices." Despite the name, it has nothing to do with Tindr.

(DTF in this case means Development Task Force.)
