Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay!

Our wings are not tired

Thank you for the kind thoughts everyone. This is going to be a long slow climb, but hopefully things are getting pointed in the right direction.

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

Glad to hear it, Theo!

Good luck, ND. I know how hard you always work and how much effort you put into running your business well

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

Timelies all!

Urgh. Mr. S decided to hold the window button on his door for the whole trip home(ensuring I couldn't close the window) and now I can't close that window all the way. Just what I needed.

Check the manual for your car. It probably just needs to be recalibrated and there is usually a procedure for doing that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Best purr vibes for Fran.

Work has been... a lot of work. Massive sudden snowmelt equals water in the basement. So there has been much shop vaccing, and at 5pm Wednesday I got word that we had to pack up everything down there because movers were coming at 8am Thursday to haul it all to a storage unit so that this morning the flooring people could rip out all the carpeting. Then this afternoon the landlord brought over some industrial strength fans and dehumidifiers to dry the place out over the weekend before new flooring will be installed on Monday. Landlord got hold of some hospital-grade disinfectant/antifungal and sprayed it all over the basement. Stuff smells like a mix of Lysol and Raid.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Tried calling the hospital, and Rosemary is able to answer the phone! Sounded weak and tired, and she says she probably isn't up to visitors until Monday (me, I'd be having them now no matter how I felt, because essentially I want to see people). They've had her sitting up and walking short distances and evidently the surgeons are very very happy (probably showing selfies of themselves and the repaired heart valve, I suppose.)

We were originally going to daytrip a local con, but when we checked the website yesterday to see the schedule, we found out it had been cancelled.

Instead, we took Mr. S to the zoo. Got to see pandas, cheetahs and a few other animals.

(The car window went up all the way when we tried it this morning.)

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

someone just hit on me in Target. It is unsettling to me for a stranger to come up and start talking to me when I've come to accept that I am generally invisible in public. I mean sure my hair isn't, but a passing hair comment is not walking directly up to me TWICE and starting a convo and offering his number. AND I WAS NOT RUDE. Although I did ask him if he often just talked to strangers in stores because it was weird.

Did he seem reasonable?
