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're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

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.

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.

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.

Hivemind (especially Hil) - I know that aquafaba (the liquid in canned chick peas) can be used as a egg white substitute. Does anyone know if the liquid from chick peas that you cook yourself has the same properties?

I think yes, but maybe not as much? Like, it's not as concentrated.

Gud checked in with me. He said he was doing okay, but not any detail.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Good day here. I went to the Farmer's market, saw Lisah from a safe distance. Came home, did some cleaning, then hung lights on the deck and two motion sensor lights. Then I trimmed trees. The Bradford pear in the front yard is hitting the house and with the wind this last week has pulled away two pieces of soffit. So I need a tree service and a repair person.
Now I'm watching the evening news for the first time in years. It sounds like everyone is yelling.
