I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Tonight's dinner was pulled pork Carolina vinegar bbq sandwich from local place #3.

Work was just a lot of paperwork, but I got everything that came in processed.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow, really, Dana? That's great if true!

Ok, the decision has been made that we provide an essential product to consumers and can keep the distribution center open. This'll be interesting.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, I'm pretty impressed. I really like them, and they've dealt with my migraines a lot, but I have no idea how they got this set up.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Is anyone else trying to go to the Indigo girls Facebook Live thing? I literally can't figure out how to get there from their facebook page>

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Fred Pete, that's good news that you're becoming more ambulatory. Walking without a cane is a big deal!

Jessica, sincere condolences about your grandmother. So glad you all got to have a good time together at her birthday.

Nilly, glad to hear your quarantine is over.

My pledge to go back to strictly controlling my diet has gone out the window. New rule: When there's a pandemic, you get to eat what you want. I wish I'd bought chocolate ice cream.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

If you go to their Facebook page, over on the left side, there's a thing that says "Live." The audio is screwed up, though -- can't hear anything right now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Thanks everyone.

Jessica, I am so sorry. IIRC your grandmother is about a mile from me right now.

She's at the very end of Lafayette, in Clifton.

I was sort of able to talk to her over video chat, and I know she saw and heard me even if she's too weak right now to respond. If this were any other week of any other year there would be hundreds of people right now flying in to be with her, and with each other. It's not so much that we're losing her - she's 100 years old, we've all been mentally preparing ourselves for a decade now - but that we can't take care of each other in person while it's happening.

I should start shopping at the small local grocer in town. If they're open, which I haven't checked. Shop Rite wasn't terrible, unless you wanted cake mix, frozen fried potatoes, pasta, or toilet paper, but I'd rather keep the small businesses in business if I can.

It's also Ethan's birthday so we're ordering from the Peruvian Place which thankfully is still open.

Or, actually, this link should work for the Indigo Girls thing, once they get their tech issues sorted out. [link] (edited with the new link)
