You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Our state's attorney general brought a class action suit against this particular company on behalf of price-gouged customers, and LOTS of people have complaints about how poorly they're run. Though I do have a little more patience with them now that they're footing $3400 or so of my plumbing bill.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I've got my third load of laundry and bread in the oven, I think I'm fully back from vacation. A week later, ha!

Seriously!
NB, the laundry is not in the oven!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm awake! Kind of. Ate a fancy thing from Eggslut and am now working my way through a raspberry croissant, which is like a raspberry jelly donut but so fancy it will ruin all actual raspberry jelly donuts forever.
The one thing I really yearn for, with all the lolling and napping, is my cats. Toby and Matilda would have draped themselves all over me and kept purring, drowsing company with me all the livelong day.
Pix, I am so very sorry. That's too much grief to have to weather in one week.
Packing~ma to askye as you work your way from packed-ish to Packed.
Cheers to Matt for conquering a public utility!
Ugh, laura, that looks so miserable. Floods, hurricanes and tornadoes are definitely some of the factors that have kept me from ever thinking about leaving my home state. We have earthquakes and wildfires, but they're occasional and capricious, not absolutely regular things to contend with and possibly be ruined by every single year without fail. I'm sorry you're contending with it all (but so glad it's just contending with).
And now I have tired myself out writing to a bare handful of all the Buffistas I should be writing to. I apologize for the oncoming nap.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
I apologize for the oncoming nap.
Go nap, choose nap. No apologies necessary; you are doing a dreadfully difficult thing.

Indeed! Nap with a clear conscience, JZ!

No one should apologize for a nap! Least of all you today, JZ.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We went to a folk concert last night, at a venue very close to Mr. S's rtc. We hadn't seen this performer in a very long time.(He's Canadian, so there was a few years where coming to the US was difficult. Then came Mr. S and the pandemic) It was good.
