Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have a super busy day which is not ideal for having just taken in a foster puppy, but she seems to be coping.
spent about half an hour playing with her this morning, then was out for 3 hours of block-walking. Have been home almost an hour and had two potty breaks with her outside and then played with her again, not I am off to volunteer at the shelter and get some materials from my State Rep campaign.
I fixed my daughter's car, but overall, it's just a terrible weekend. It's just too much.
Go you, msbelle!
I am doing pretty well toward my goal of not doing much, but I did go to the new Target by my house and ended up buying like a whole new wardrobe. Four shirts and a skirt! Yikes. Better not do that ever weekend...
A friend picked me up and brought me to another friends house to watch football. Which I don't care one bit about Michigan vs Michigan State. But seeing people is key.
It's getting cold here—I need to get a coat next time I get someone to take me to my house.
Also trying to find someone who can drive me on a Wednesday afternoon to my follow up appointment. In theory I could uber but I think it would be hard (and expensive) given how I'm getting in and out of the house. (Well, easier to get back via uber since I could say what to do, to the driver)
Timelies all!
Am in the main concert room, listening to the Guests of Honor.
What's going on, Gud? Can you prioritize, so what MUST get done, gets done, and the rest can be pushed back if needed?
I hope you are doing ok, Gud.
Glad you are getting out amongst the humans, meara

I had some nice rides this morning -- left me feeling good about interacting with people and doing something that I'm good at. Then I came home and collapsed in a small quivering tired heap, so I didn't get anything done all afternoon, except for some Facebook games (my big sin) and reading the latest Seanan McGuire book.
My Dad's 80th birthday was Thursday. Friday late I flew from KCI to DCA, to attend a surprise birthday lunch for him today. There were about thirty friends and family there. He was indeed surprised. A good time was had by all. The party moved from the restaurant to his home, and didn't break up until after 6pm. I overheard my little brother's newish girlfriend say it felt like a Thanksgiving holiday party.
Tomorrow Dad and I plan to go do something touristy - probably visit the battlefield at Manassas.
Monday I fly back to KC, hoping the Ford dealership will have fixed my new car - the steering assist failed Friday morning. At least it wasn't while actually on the way to the airport. Sigh. Trying not to worry about it until I get back home.
Laura, I...don't know what that last line means?
Bev was correct, I hit the language key on the iPhone and changed to random language. Since the highway was calling I didn't fix it.
Drove from Harrisburg to Savannah today. Almost 15 hours. Stopped in Charlotte for dinner with family. Tired.
Dcp, that sounds like a complete delight.
