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

Timelies all!

Very quiet here. I cleared off a bunch of stuff from my computer desk and now I can have my laptop completely on it.

Even though it's the Tony Awards, I was not prepared for the level of pinging my gaydar would receive courtesy of Josh Lucas. I guess I've never heard him speak out of character before.

Ha! Matt I googled “Josh Lucas partner” and was shocked to see women.

Not just you.

Home sick with a 100° fever.

Two rapid tests have come back negative, and I’m waiting on the PCR results.

Here's wishing you the flu, Tom? Get well soon, in any event.

Overall it was an enjoyable broadcast, a welcome return of Broadway. Though I was dismayed not to get my customary annual check-in on Angela Lansbury's health. Particularly since she was apparently awarded a lifetime achievement Tony in absentia but that wasn't broadcast. I hope she's okay.

I know nothing about A Strange Loop except the bits I saw of it during the show, but those seemed inferior to all its competitors in the Best Musical category. I get that the premise has an important message, but shouldn't the winner also be, y'know, good?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Home sick with a 100° fever.

Ugh. That happened to me back in March. Turned out to be a 24-hour GI bug, not Covid or influenza, so yay?

Best wishes for yours being a non-event also, and that you feel better soon.

Stay hydrated.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Home sick with a 100° fever.

Ditto on hoping it's a random, non-Covid, non-serious bug that's short-lived!

'Flu~ma, Tom?

I had a weekend where I made stuff I'd been putting off for a while finally happen. I got the dryer vent cleaned out, which made a huge difference in clothes drying time. I cleaned mildew out of my dishwasher, took care of some unexpected family estate stuff (unexpected because the people involved have been dead for 12+ years), and today I booked my flight and car rental for my Labor Day trip to my sister's place. I'd been putting off the last one because I'm still trying to get a job in MI, but I'm coming to terms with the idea that that won't happen this summer. And I really needed to book before rising fuel prices made the tickets even more astronomical.
