Timelies all!
Hope your bout with COVID is easy, Laura.
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sorry about that, Laura. Fingers crossed it's a mild case and over soon.

Feel better, Laura.
The reports coming out of Ukraine are CRAZY. Huge losses by Russia.

Apparently msbelle is a dream walker...
In mine just now, my child (one of which I do not have in RL) and I were going to visit her and mac in Baltimore, where she owned six adjacent apartments in a cool, old building.
She was planning to rent a few and hold a few open for friends to visit, stay a spell, what have you. Oh, and they lived in one of them, natch.
We only got so far as the happy greetings; no adventures to report, sad to say.

Our wings are not tired.
Hey Buffistas. Still alive here. Fever broke yesterday afternoon. Really just very congested and tired now. Started Paxlovid yesterday so that should be helping. Still annoyed about the whole thing.
My odd dream last night was that I spilled my drink that was on the bedside table, but I was too tired to deal with it and would clean it up in the morning. I know I felt to make sure my book wasn't wet, but it was on the bed next to me. This morning, cup still upright with contents, no spill. Seriously I need better dreams.

Han I would love to see Howard Stern pay SMG

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
If SMG has a preferred charity and says she'll donate the lot . . . .
Laura, I'm sorry; I hope your recovery is swift.
I was going to take Jim out for a picnic at the beach for his birthday, and with the air full of smoke from the fires, now I am scrambling for a backup plan. Picnic in the living room, probably.

I'm sorry the smoke is messing with your beach plan, and a whole lot of other stuff. A picnic in the living room would likely be delightful.
Stern should pay up, and yes, they should donate it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
msbelle's dream apartments and amyparker's living room picnic both sound delightful.
I am pleased that SMG and Freddie are still happily encumbered.
Everybody was very busy sleeping in this Saturday. I will sally forth at some point to hit the Asian market and get lots of veg for the pigs and frittata. I've been making muffin tin frittatas so we can all have some portable / quick protein in the morning.
It's grey and foggy today in SF, which is welcome after the recent heat wave. (Which barely touched us for a couple days.)
I have plans to go see the new Bowie doc in IMAX with my artist friend, Jes, on Monday. I'm excited about that.
Less excited about the new maintenance project which will be chaos making for at least two weeks, but needs must.
