Our wings are not tired.

Settled into a comfy chair to finish reading the boring book before book club Monday. Dog and cat are down with relaxing although I am unclear on whether they hear the jazz playing in the background. DH has gone to Key West for a basketball tournament. He tells me that season is over Tuesday.

He has been doing the hard work of finding a car for me, as is his marital obligation. I'll make the final pick, but he does the research, talks to the dealers, and puts it all in a spreadsheet. I've looked at the 2023, but really I don't see any advantage to that over the older models and in fact Tesla has dropped some of the features in the newer models to drop the prices. Soon I hope because I kind of hate the Camry rental car.

Things are calm here as I avoid the rest of my to-do list.

Heavy fog in San Francisco this morning, and JZ and Matilda and my MiL all sleeping in.

Walked the dog, and now lounging instead of vacuuming, which I really need to do: I have had my sister's golden here for a week so I have twice as much dog hair. She had a cyst removed from her back (the dog, not my sister) and the 8-month-old puppy tore open the stitches while wrestling with her!

So she is here for her recuperation: she doesn't play with my dog, they mostly just ignore each other. Very peaceful.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

I'm loafing around and reading, but later I have to run out and get groceries. Extremely exciting.

Tomorrow's plans include lunch with Dad for his birthday, and then (not with Dad) watching the Bengals-Chiefs game. I know the Chiefs are favored to win (by 1 point!), but last week the Bills were favored to win, and, well, here we are. I feel like, with Mahomes not at his best, plus the Bengals combo of Burrow and Chase, we have a really good chance of going to the Super Bowl again.

I have been alternating between reading the boring book, doing house chores, doing work work, and watching junk tv. I just finished one work chore, having previously read and watched tv it is apparently time for me to do a house chore.

Heavy fog in San Francisco this morning, and JZ and Matilda and my MiL all sleeping in.

Sounds like an excellent plan. I've only had fog here once, but listening to the distant fog horns was quite pleasant.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I feel like, with Mahomes not at his best, plus the Bengals combo of Burrow and Chase, we have a really good chance of going to the Super Bowl again.

Here’s hoping. I made an orange cake for the last Super Bowl in their honor, and it was yummy, so I’d love an excuse to make it again. Plus, Midwestern solidarity, yo! It’s not like I expect to root for the Lions at the Super Bowl any time soon.

Breakfast out was good, and then I did some reading while Matt took a nap. Chill out factor for the day is in the high 90s, given a 100 point scale.

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

Timelies all!

It's very quiet here. Gary left for the airport around 10am and the nanny picked up Mr. S about 45 minutes later.

Enjoy the peace, Sheryl!

I'm lazing around the house: I still have a cold and I don't want to give it to anyone. Really need to vacuum, though.

Enjoy the solitude, Sheryl.

I hope you feel good enough to enjoy the lazing, Consuela.
