I say "the living room"- but I live alone.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
JZ, thank you for writing that; it was beautiful. It brought up lots of feelings in me about my family and my old church. I'm sorry you couldn't all hug each other, and so so glad for you to have such a family and community around you.
Hec, thanks for posting the photo of the church, it's amazing.
Matt, I'd consider it a potential red flag but not a dealbreaker. Something to be worked out.
I am stress-free, at least for this weekend! All I have is one small assignment for side gig #1, and nothing else I have to do for two whole days. (We're not closed Monday.) Whew. Time to work a puzzle, have a drink, and watch some stupid YouTube videos. Quality time!

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

So much love, JZ.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh JZ. You're such a beautiful writer -- it means something for us to feel like we were there with you, so I can only imagine how much it will mean for people who really should have been.

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

Another fine day here, with Mr. S. At least Gary is trying to get him to go outside for a bit.

We had a list of fun things to do today, but ltc is being impossible.

What is even happening?
I don't know about the length of prior residence, but there was also a pre-existing roommate so the "my living room" seems particularly telling to me. I immediately thought of communal spaces as shared when I lived with other people, and I've been territorial about guests overstaying their welcome.
Yeah. Like Sophia, I say "the living room," even though I currently live with four other adults.
Oh JZ. You're such a beautiful writer -- it means something for us to feel like we were there with you, so I can only imagine how much it will mean for people who really should have been.
You really are, Jacqueline. I hope it helped to write it out.

I think it might depend on who I'm talking to? Like, I'd never refer to it as "my living room" to the roommate in question. But if I was talking about it to someone who doesn't know my roommate I'd probably call it "my" living room.

Much love to JZ. I cannot imagine how hard it is to deal with a loss of this magnitude and not have the comfort of touch.
