I have the day off and after a brief morning bit of activity I went back to bed until noon. I stayed up way too late last night scrolling the internet.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

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

I have the day off, but I'm working for the non-profit I work for, because OMG this spreadsheet is a fucking mess, and I have to sort it out before I can upload it to the donor/donation tracking system.
Night. Mare.
The ED, bless her heart, does not yet know that what she did to the spreadsheet I laid out for her is costing a butt ton of time (that I don't really have, frankly) to rectify. Argh.
On the other hand, it's a gorgeous day out. Not that I'm, you know, out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have the day off, so went to brunch and then to the park, because it is also lovely here!
JZ, you just moved in to way more space, right? You don't need to cull shit! I always thought I had too much stuff until I realized I just didn't have enough space.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I have today off because I'm a federal employee. Weather's nice here(high 70s, sunny and a bit breezy) though I've only been out once, to drop something in the mail. I did walk to the mailbox, which is a block or so away.

What we really need is more book cases and dressers. We've ordered the book cases, but will need even more.

Our wings are not tired.
Thank you for the update, msbelle. Sending all my love and ~ma to Maria and loved ones.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Guinea Pigs have been moved over. Fridge contents. Pillows. Still need some more bedding, art and the espresso machine but we're almost moved over.
Of course, then there's all the boxes that need unpacking.
Very weary but yesterday was the last heavy day, so today has been as much cleaning as moving.

Oh, no. Thanks for sharing, msbelle. All love to Maria and family.

This day is a most Epic day! Happy birthday to EpicTangent! May the day be filled with love and treats. May this year return you to good health so that you can fully celebrate next year.
Happy Solstice!
Maria, I am holding you and yours in my heart.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
msbelle, thank you for sharing Maria's sad news.
Happy birthday to Plei and Epic and anyone else who had a birthday while I was gone (like Javachik and my son!)
Tom, I skipped several hundred messages but it sounds like you and I are Covid buddies? This is the worst club ever and I hope we both get to quit it soon.
I'm 99% sure I caught it on the airplane, since I flew the week the US decided to remove the pre-flight testing AND masking requirements, and started feeling sick about halfway through the (12 hour) flight.
Oh, and Jess, let me know how that tahini is!
I'm waiting until my taste buds work again because right now everything tastes bitter and weird. :(
Meeting up with Shir and Nilly was the absolute highlight of my trip. (Blah blah Dead Sea blah blah Negev blah blah eating amazing food and watching the sun set over the Mediterranean I GOT TO HANG OUT WITH SHIR AND NILLY AT THE SAME TIME.)
