Timelies all!

Atherton: Half the men in this room wish you were on their arm, tonight. Inara: Only half. I must be losing my indefinable allure.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I woke up feeling defeated this morning. So much hate and pain inflicted on the Black community. Police acting like a military force. And no, NO leadership from the top. We went for a long drive, but it hasn't helped much. This is a dark time in history.

I'm fine here, and the Greater Camberville area (which includes Boston et cet) seems to be doing fine.
My serenity is seriously compromised by an eyewitness (somebody connected to a bunch of us Buffistas on Facebook) who saw a large number of cars driving around Minneapolis without plates -- there are real provocateurs out there.
And then there are the police departments that still somehow believe that the correct action to a peaceful protest is tear gas, rubber bullets, et al -- just what you want to make things worse.

Yay lawyers guild. Yay Consuelas relatives restaurant!
Blueberry pie is delicious and now I want some. Mmmm. I have cupcakes, can we trade through the Internet tubes?
Had remote book club today, it was nice to see folks—it's mostly folks I don't even see online much, so that chatting with acquaintances thing is something I haven't had for months, it feels like? Also had a teeny bottle of Prosecco, for my solo mimosa.

Our wings are not tired.
Dropped my son and GF at the West Palm Beach protest near Trump Tower. Sorry, it is over 90 out and I just can't. He brought a gallon jug of water and they wore masks. I drove back A1A and there were about 20 copy cars within a mile or so of Mar-A-Lago (N&S&E&W of property). I didn't think he would be there when it is so hot out, but maybe since he was down here for the launch he stayed. It could be they were just there in case the protests head that way.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Best of luck to son an GF, Laura.

He reports great support with people beeping and cheering them. I probably have to go pick them up. Ugh.
