Oh, goodness, poor M. Glad the door thing was resolved without incident, but, yeah.

It's going up to 90° here today, apparently. Toasty.

I seem to not have anything of interest to share, but, you know, "Hi."

We had hail so loud last night that I (mostly jokingly) asked Husband if the world was ending. They were reportedly quarter-sized. I was worried about our windows, because it was also fucken wimdy, so it was like being inside a gumball machine being violently shaken.

Yikes. Hail is scary. I hope your vehicles are in a garage.

I went for a walk in the park a couple blocks away from home. We purchased a family membership to get a fob to enter via the north gate which is next to us, rather than the main gate a mile or so away. Anyway, ended up walking 2 miles and having Brendon pick me up because I was too drenched to walk another 1 mile home. Next time, tie up hair and wear a headband. Also, I am out of shape. Pretty park though. Still a bit flooded in places.

Very glad we have a garage.

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

Timelies all!

It's Friday. That's all I got.

All day long I thought it was Thursday. Earlier Brendon said not to make dinner because he wanted to go out. So on the way home from the dog park we are discussing potential restaurants. I say X shouldn't be too bad on a Thursday. Then he tells me it is Friday!!! It was like a gift basket!!

We decided to go to our favorite beachside place. Then during dinner 2 coast guard fast boats come racing along with lights flashing. It is near dusk so all patrons are concerned. If someone is in peril there should be helicopters. Then they bullhorn congratulations and we see a wedding on the beach. Must have been one of their own. Anyway, it was a delightful surprise after the worry.

Yay Coasties!

I follow one of my old coworkers on Instagram, and it's so fun to see her posts: she's the commander of an ice-breaker in the Great Lakes, so she posts all sorts of wonderful video clips of the Mackinaw going in and out of port.

I have three (!) dogs in my house tonight. J is annoyed at the disruption because F has taken her regular spot on the couch. And I'm taking R to a dog even in the central valley tomorrow. They were very barky earlier, but right now they're all peaceful and chill.

That is super cool!

I am crossing my fingers I don’t have a migraine tomorrow like I have every Saturday for the past several weeks. Do not appreciate. Also there’s a soccer game at 1230, so I can’t lay around all day waiting for meds to kick in! Come on, body!

Be good to meara, body!

Ice-breakers are super cool. I was only on an ice-breaking ferry once on Lake Champlain as a kid. It was so much fun. Crunch Crunch Crunch!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am crossing my fingers I don’t have a migraine tomorrow like I have every Saturday for the past several weeks.

I woke up with a stabby migraine today, but Ubrelvy + caffeine seems to be getting rid of it. (Amusingly, based on my Facebook memories for this date, April 22 has been a migraine day for me several years in a row. I'm going to guess it's a combination weather change/spring allergy whammy.)
