Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Because books.

Yes! And Dana reminded me to look there! I am so computer dumb sometimes.

I am still on furlough and now I'm in bed with a terrible head cold and no voice at all. Literally none - like, when I try to speak all I get is a squeaky wheeze. So weird.

I was planning to go see Spider-Verse today but I'm not sure I could drag myself out of the house...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no, Consuela! That seems like adding insult to injury.

I got up at noon!

Oh wait, that's now normal for me, what with the going to bed after 2am and reading for at least an hour. But shifting back to my near-nocturnal schedule has done wonders for my productivity.

My sincere sympathies to everyone who had to head into work today.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

No bueno, Consuela! Best to baby yourself with at-home entertainments I think.

Faced with another holiday week from school for Matilda and limited means to entertain her I was thrilled when she went over to her friend Norah's yesterday, and then did a sleepover.

But even happier today that she only stopped home long enough to grab some of her xmas money to head over to Japantown with Norah to have ramen at their favorite spot.

This is only the second time she's been there with her friends unsupervised, so I'm just getting used to her being a Free Range Chicken in the City.

OTOH, how cool is that she gets to take the bus to Japantown with her friend and they have a favorite Ramen spot?

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

Very cool, Hec!

Totally unfair, Consuela.

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

Timelies all!

Back to what passes for normal around here.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am going to starve to death before my husband finishes with this phone call and we can go get dinner.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I sure did have half a cauliflower for dinner with tahini dressing and it was delicious. Now the question is if I do the other half the same way or buffalo. Because I flove buffalo cauliflower.
