Glad Arthur is homeward bound, and Debet has multiple arms into which she can pass him when need be. The hospital is always the worst place to ... Well, just generally the worst.
This incarnation of the board is as old as my middle kid! Which is pretty old, imo.
My Friend Maria swooped down tonight after work and took me to the beach. She knew just the right thing to do. Today at work was unfun, as it is super busy opening the semester and I was not firing on all cylinders. I just sort of skipped a meeting by mistake and I reacted poorly to people’s poor planning/persistently not letting me do my job. I tried to be kind thinking of JZ, but I sort of panicked about a big thing that I now need to do before September 15 that I didn’t even know about.
Post Serial:
I shared JZs love of vintage hats with my very first costume student ever. Like, she was in high school, I was in college and she signed up to be my assistant for the second play I designed. I am now crying because she is going to make sure to wear a hat tomorrow in JZs honor.

Whoa! Or perhaps woah? Anyway, I don’t know why this particular thing seems significant to me right now but it does
On my second after work drink, in theory before heading to a different spot for dinner. We’ll see. But that could explain the whoa-ness.
yay homecoming for Arthur!
have missed this fast moving post. y'all are wonderful to read!

An unexpected beach trip sounds nice.
I’m glad Arthur is going home.

It is our happy place. She likes to swim and I like to bounce in the water and chat, and then go back and read and people watch while she swims. It is “just” a Great Lake beach, not the ocean, but it is so calming.

There's no "just" about it -- the Great Lakes are no small potatoes! They have currents and waves and riptides! But no salt and no sharks.
I am so missing our family beach trip. I keep telling R stories and realizing they have beaches in them, but not the NC beach. Turkey, Corfu. Beaches when my mom was alive, if not with me. I need beach and book time. I need escape right now.
As mentioned on fb, R and I watched The Matrix tonight for the first time since either of us learned it was a metaphor for the trans experience. It is a really heavy movie through that lens, especially watching it with someone who is just realizing they are trans. So many damn details in there - like, I don’t think Switch or Epoch got pronouns. Just their names.
