I haven't lived in SF, but I get that
Tara: 'Your One-Stop Spot to Shop for Lots of New-Age and Occult Items.' Catchy. Giles: Think so? Tara: Uh huh. In a... hard to say sorta way.
'Sleeper'
Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Compassionately intolerant
(Did I mention we moved? We did. Much better house. And it has a natural gas -powered fire pit in the backyard!!)
My dream ritual spot!! Congrats on the move and good unpacking vibes.

Family's not really being a pain.
Gotcha, and good to hear. And go you for errand-fu.
We just ate takeout from a yum new Thai place we discovered thanks to a friend's b-day dinner.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
if you've lived in San Francisco and ever had to run 7 errands in two hours you know what I mean.
I am in awe. Seriously.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Holy crap, Amy! I just saw they closed Longwood Gardens because of that guy.
Holy crap indeed! That’s like defiling a sacred place.
David, that sounds pretty impressive to me.
What do you know, if I have five days off in a row and sleep a lot I actually have energy to do a thing or two after work. Had tacos with R and I just picked a couple of PT places to call tomorrow. Go me.

Because books.

Nice! I felt the same way after the three-day weekend. Amazing what a little rest will do.
David, NYC is like that, and even my little burg here, because it's 75% one-way streets and zero parking anywhere.
I hope the trip to see your sister is at least easy travel.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I am a bear of very little brain today. Love you all.

Love you back, WindSparrow.

Our wings are not tired.
Just settled into the hotel room after soaking in the spa for a bit. Had a nice day with family and friends up here near the Canada border. I laughed when my phone texted me Welcome to Canada, because not actually there, just using a tower from there apparently.
Anyway, read all, but too tired to respond except to restful nights or productive days to all.

Wouldn't that be nice! I reflexively just did my usual 4 day LA trip and transcribed it to Georgia: Leave Thursday, return on Sunday.
Matilda is at her friend Norah's house. This is fairly momentous as Norah used to be one of her closest friends, and that got severed during the pandemic. (They have not spent time together since 2019, though they did have a reconciliation meeting when Norah came to see Jacqueline.)
Norah's mom, Hannah, was one of the Sacred Circle of Women (with Gin and Tonics) who dropped everything to take care of Jacqueline.
So, some things that I thought would never be repaired seem to be moving that way. Who knows.
The upshot of all this is that I have the house to myself for almost the first time in since December.
