so my plan is to see that anniversary showing of My Neighbor Totoro.
Oooh, good plan. That's like Zoloft in cinematic form.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

Boo on the flooding, Matt, but yay for the barrier... and movie.
I'm sitting at the gate waiting for my flight. Definitely think it was a stomach bug yesterday. Er, I hope I'm not spreading any germs, but, like, I'm masked? And I feel better? Like, no one else is masked. I kind of don't get it -- I want to avoid as many germs as possible!
Anyway.
I have a book and I'm just kind of mellow, so, all is well.

Our wings are not tired.
Thinking of Allyson today as she celebrates a milestone birthday. Hoping it is a joyous day and that the year to come is awesome, as she deserves.
Have a family social thing today, which should be fun. It is the far-right segment of the family, but there should be plenty of sane people and we don't tend to get political when we are together, so it is all good.

I really believed that masks would be a forever thing in airports. It will be for me!

Happy birthday, Allyson!
And I'm with you, Laura & Jen: airports and all public transit is still where I mask up.

Sounds right.
Also, I will also be masking up on airplanes and airports for the foreseeable future.

I wish someone would have suggested it before. Both my mother and I have gotten sick from a plane. Happy birthday, Allyson.

The last time I got an actual notification from my phone about an exposure (though I’m sure not the last time I’ve been exposed) was after being on an airplane. I felt a bit hypocritical since I did take it off to eat (it was a cross country flight) but I made sure it was 100% on in the airport and when boarding and deplaning since they say that’s when the air circulation is worst. I feel like I must’ve had it at some point here, though—I haven’t been masking at dancing or my recent bowling adventures…

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Quiet day here. Went out for lunch, but that's it.

I put off My Neighbor Tortoro until Tuesday evening since today's showing was dubbed and that one is subtitled. Oh no, guess that means I won't see the Shazam sequel in its first two weeks at the box office. But I'm sure Warner Bros doesn't need my money since it has a new, guaranteed success plan for the DCEU...
Happy to report that much more of my back yard than expected is coming up as clover rather than grass. I saw my first honeybee of the spring yesterday, and like the idea of my yard becoming a sanctuary for them.
