Juliana, I’m so sorry.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

juliana, many hugs to you and M and A, and may Bast welcome Stella with all the honor an elder cat deserves.

I just pinged Emmett and Kalena to let them know that since they've gone and moved in almost a week early they'll need to be the ones to deal with the Comcast tech on Wednesday. I also need to remind them that we haven't figured out why the stove doesn't light and we have no idea whether the oven works and the apartment has some spoons and dullish knives but is totally forkless, all of which had been on my fix-it-before-they-move-in list but oops!

So sorry Juliana!

JZ if they move in early they can deal with some rough edges! But yay for it all working out.

I am SO COLD right now. I had to turn off the heat to my house, while I was out of town, because they were turning off the water for construction down the street and said I needed to turn everything off. Got home and turned it back on and it’s been a couple hours and only up to 62. Brrr!

JZ, that’s totally fair.

I spent the afternoon with Papa, Mom, and Stepdad eating too much Italian food and picking Papa’s brain about all him recipes, which are, for the most part, not written down.

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

Ha! Hec that’s so funny. Good luck moving the new furniture.

I did wind up helping Emmett unload the heavy stuff, then buying him a burrito.

He's going to drive the U-Haul back to Sonoma, and then drive his car back down to SF.

And then he's no longer a resident of Sonoma. He and Kalena will be San Franciscans.

And I will put him to work later in the week picking up our furniture.

I did 19,614 steps today running around dealing with shit. That's 8.2 miles.

Nice step count!

Congrats to Emmett and Kalena. That's freaking exciting. When are you guys planning to move in?

Tuesday is vortual meeting day as usual around here. Guess I should get to it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Sorry about the confusion - Emmett's plans sound a lot like the little riddle about the man with a fox, a goose, a bag of grain, a boat that will only carry one of those at a time.

the apartment has some spoons and dullish knives

Well, at least they have the spoons to deal wit h things!

Ba dum bum. Nice one!
