Yikes, msbelle. That does not seem like How Things Should Be!

Oh, -t, my mother's trip was this weekend and she didn't end up taking the train after all (her host insisted on a million-dollar Uber!).

I did hear that BART stations near the airport were closed for some reason (like hazardous materials in the area?) recently, so that may have been a good choice. But I was also in MTZ this weekend, so hooray for proximity even if totally invisibly!

And some days, the transit gods smile upon you (thanks, Hermes!). My flight arrived and I walked quickly to the bus stop, where I waited less than a minute for my (early) bus, which pulled into the transit center at the same time as my transfer, which had a rollator-user, so I could even have walked a little slower and still gotten on.

Big medical appointment in an hour and a half, so things going smoothe is extra nice.

Timelies all!

Gary took Mr. S to the residential treatment center today. It's very quiet here.

Ooh. I have seen things labeled Cheesecake Brownies although I don't know what that means in a practical sense.

Usually a brownie with some cheesecake marbled in on top. Delish!!

I made camoflauge chocolate cheescake brownies for my superbowl party - regular cheescake topping, chocolate cheesecake topping (regular + cocoa powder), and some of the brownie mix swirled on top [link]

I livestreamed my uncle's funeral today, in between classes and meetings. While it's great that this technology exists, and it's definitely better than not being there at all, it still feels like a disconnect. But there was just no way I could get to Boston for this without missing at least one day of work and possibly two, and I knew I couldn't get anyone to cover my classes on that short notice.

Sheryl, I hope you can all find some peace together.

I’m sorry you lost your uncle, Hil. Much peace to you and your family.

Sheryl, I hope the program is helpful.

Appointment ~ma, Debet.

I like both cheesecake and brownies separately, and I could see them working well together.

I'm sorry for your loss, Hil. Tough to not be there, but yay technology.

Sheryl, may the transition be as smooth as possible for all of you.

Medical~ma, Debet.

Not a cheesecake fan so I'll take all the brownies.

DH picks up his car today!

Ugh. I had a friend bring over takeout last night and I thought I’d eat it for lunch today….and then I left it sitting on the counter overnight. It’s tofu pad Thai but the internet seems convinced it will kill me if I eat it for lunch. Booooo

I would definitely eat that, meara, but I am cavalier about food safety.
