My NYE plans are to spend it in my pajamas reading Yuletide and watching weird, queer shit. Assuming my flights don't get cancelled.

I should clarify that I'm grateful for the opportunity to be tired of spending time with my family. I say this as I'm helping my father set up all his accounts again after he panicked and deleted all his saved usernames and passwords.

Gold ticket straight to heaven!

I forgot to mention, that we got to see Maria and her beau on Boxing Day. Tried to get into Zazie but it was an hour wait so slid over to the Boulangerie where we had Croque Monsieur and went tromping off in an intermittent drizzle. Showed them Haight Street, and then a walk through the Panhandle. Down to Divisadero and those shops and back. Brought them home to dry them of and introduced them to the Boulevardier cocktail.

It was a shock to realize I haven't seen her in 8 years!! 2013 - that was a different world. We'll see them again before they head back.

Really pissed about all of that. Everything is such a fucking mess.

AGREED.

I'm also impressed that apparently no one in my church choir or family has covid this week.

Oh fun!

That's cool, David! Give 'em a b.org hug, eh?

I was just thinking about Maria and hoping she was doing well.

I got a text from Mom. My cousin J has been moved to hospice. He has had another series of strokes and his body is shutting down. I said something about the rehab place being the reason and she said it was ...complicated.. but couldn't talk at the moment because my aunt was right there.

I don't know if J's son will get to see him before he dies. I hate this past year. I really really hate it.

I'm so sorry, askye.

I'm so sorry.

Oh, I'm so sorry, askye.
