Our wings are not tired.

My entire life is calendared. I've had a bad memory my entire life so computer scheduling was the best thing ever. Taking pills, for me and the animals, stretching so I don't get stiff working at my desk all day, watering plants, birthdays, work routine tasks, every single thing in life is in my calendar, often with both email and pop-up reminders. They don't get deleted from my email until I do them. If I don't put something into the calendar immediately it will be gone. Brain like sieve.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I have a reminder to take out the garbage cans

Does it play "Yakety Yak"?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I have a reminder to take out the garbage cans on Sunday night.

I would forget so much stuff without phone reminders.

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

More of a new age marimba. Though I guess you could play Yakety Sax on marimba. But then it would need to be retitled Mumbly Marimba. I may be overthinking this.

Argh. I hate walking into Monday morning and it’s a work shitstorm. I mean, luckily not one I caused but still one I have to handle the consequences of, so….Joy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Does it play "Yakety Yak"?

That's an excellent idea

I have too many reminders on my phone, possibly. I have certainly gotten too comfortable ignoring notifications and reminders.

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

Okay, we're confirmed for our infusion on this Friday, and I have booked our hotel and flight.

We're flying First Class. I don't know if they'll reimburse us for the full First Class amount, but I'll happily take the Economy Class reimbursement.

Just trying to find ways to make the travel less onerous.

Our hotel is directly across the street which is good because the infusion starts at 8:15 and will run for 10 hours. The first two times down JZ will have extended time at the hospital as the trial wants to measure the level of meds in her bloodstream over time.

After those first two trips, we can just do regular infusions (which take about 4 hours).

ION, we're headed to the Apple store to buy me a new laptop, since we're going to be on the road for the next couple years.

Are you signed up for the relevant airline/hotel/transportation rewards programs?

David, Alaska airlines has a flight pass program in CA that might be a good thing.
