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

I might just loaf around in the air conditioning and watch trashy TV until it's time for sushi.

Good plan!

Emmett & Kalena are headed to Wisconsin tomorrow morning for a wedding where Emmett is a groomsman.

Jon B. is in town this week, and he's officially the First Guest at the Garden Apartment.

JZ and I are about to commit to a dresser which would make a significant difference in the number of boxes lying around awaiting unpacking.

Matilda is the only one who's really in a groove in the new house, as she's got her Fancy Bedroom squared away, and is working every weekday as a camp counselor. (Though we'll be disrupting everything next week when we paint/wallpaper her room.)

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Steph!

Thanks for the update, Epic. It is good to hear that treatment is going pretty well. Yeah, the surgical drain is super annoying, and alas it varies widely from person to person how long it takes to be done with its usefulness. This too shall pass!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Late last night I started getting a fever and chills very late in the evening last night, and guess who has Covid? TCG and ltc are testing negative. So I’m going to go quarantine in the spare bedroom for at least five days. My doctor called in an antiviral.

That sucks! Jeez, it's not like you've been a social butterfly either.

Oh I am sorry, sj. I really hope the symptoms are mild and that TCG and ltc remain negative.

Separately, SCOTUS did it. I don't know how this is going to work out. Maybe a shift to the left in the midterms? Maybe expanding the courts? I really want this to go away.

I don’t go anywhere! And I mask when I do. I’m so annoyed. Dave is unearthing the spare bed for me right now and I’m collecting all my devices and some book and magazines.

Fucking SCOTUS. The court needed to be expanded to prevent this. We knew it and nothing happened.
