The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

is there a current delurking thread, or a goodby to 2020 thread

Delurking thread is: [link]

The Goodbye & Good Riddance thread doesn't usually start until December.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Theo, I am so sorry. I feel like the older I get, the more sad news comes my way.

Erin, that sounds like an awesome Halloween!

I never had any trick or treaters, and didn’t get any this year. I usually would go to Maria’s but we didn’t this year. It is her favorite Holiday. Mine is Thanksgiving, and all of them are cancelled this year. Just all sort of super depressing for a person who is uncoupled. I never thought I would miss people this much!

Hello, new board, and thank you, Gud!

We had no trick-or-treaters, as expected; virtual game night with friends, as usual.

erin, that sounds fabulous.

Theo, I am sorry for your loss.

I feel like starting a goodbye and good riddance thread before January invites 2020 to do its worst before it leaves. Then again, I have no faith that 2021 will necessarily be better, so...

What is even happening?

Ditto, meara, on both points.

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

Hi, new board!

I spent Halloween at home. I watched the Great Pumpkin, then Practical Magic, and then the Rocky Horror livestream, which was all nice, I guess.

Thrive to spite them

Well today is an extension of my days off turning into crappy days. My mom and her siblings do zoom meet on Sundays thanks to her brother. And he can be prickly about things toward the end he was talking and paused I thought he was done so I started to say something and then be said sharply something like "can you let me finish" and I said "it was a mistake. I'm sorry" so kind of sharp and he muted his mic and then decided to end the call. Like barely let anyone say goodbye.

Also our internet is out. Again. It was supposed to be back on by now but it's not.

I should probably not do the zoom calls with video on anymore because it's impossible for me to stay still and I'm sure my moving around irritates my uncle.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just got a bunch of Christmas shopping done and shipped, because what else am I going to do, think about reality?

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

Will re-post this on FB. I know 2020 has sucked balls. Are people wanting to do a gift exchange this year?

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

I don't want to participate in the gift exchange, but I'm happy to add people to my card list if they're interested.
