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

I'm so sorry, Gud.

oh, no, Gud! I'm so sorry.

I know you are hella smart and reliable, and hope you will find something good pretty quickly. I hope your former employers gave you a good severance!

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday, Hec!

I'm sorry, Gud.

Oh, Jesus, Gud, I'm so sorry.

Mom just updated me on Aunt W. She has sepsis and Covid 19. And she hasn't been eating or responding to anyone. Since she is in quarantine mom is just going to wait and see what happens.

It doesn't look good though.

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

That sounds like a great birthday plan!!!

It was! And then my friend, Jes, and I went to Alembic for cocktails, commiseration (she had a plumbing failure that made her ceiling collapse on her art studio), and foods.

I'm sorry, Gud! That really fucking sucks.

But you are highly employable and somebody else will be lucky enough to snap you up and all your talents.

Our wings are not tired.

Opening was last night! All I want to do is nap.

Congrats for survival! Rest and recover now.

Alex graduated from high school yesterday evening. I surprised myself by crying

Congrats to Alex! From your description of the event and school I would be crying right along with you.

Belated birthday wishes to JZ and David. It sounds like very good days indeed. Retirement! Nice. Try not to stress over how they will manage.

Mom just updated me on Aunt W. She has sepsis and Covid 19.

No, not good at all. I'm sorry everything is so fraught.

I'm sorry, Gud! That does indeed suck. As Hec said -

But you are highly employable and somebody else will be lucky enough to snap you up and all your talents.

I am back home after a couple very long days doing implementation stuff at one of my practices. Got everything on my list checked off. Used a doggy day care at the house of a stay-at-home mom with one other dog. It went very well. Now I am going to try it again the 2nd-5th while I go help my sister after a minor surgery on the 3rd. This time a college student with a huge back yard and two dogs.

I know it is silly, but this is the 3rd year when I wasn't somewhere normal to have fun on the 4th of July and it was 3 years ago that I bought a super cute flag design skort that I still haven't worn. This year my sister with surgery, last year DH with surgery, and the year before I don't even remember now the reason. Sigh. Next year.
