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.
The Bengals are STRESSING ME OUT.
Oh, for fuck's sake, Bengals. Look at your lives, look at your choices.
Football season has started? That’s not sarcasm. I’m just unaware.
My little Nephlet who is 27 now got married last weekend. I adore his bride and they've been together for years. So proud and happy for him.
He lives in Cleveland and it was shockingly (to me) nice. Really green and a lot of open spaces in what appeared to be contiguous parks.
I had a nasty sinus infection and barely rallied for all of it. But Sudafed existed and I took it.
But! After the wedding reception some of us got on a party bus to go see Duran Duran. My new niece-in-law loves them and I instigated the idea that D2 was a good wedding band several months ago. Such a good concert but so glad to be home and recovering.
Boggled my Nephlet is old enough to marry but he chose well. I love that crazy girl.
Our first flight home was delayed so our entire itinerary was borked. But we got a hotel room, food/drink voucher and, honestly, a better trip with a layover in SF. Spent a couple of hours there and missed Jacqueline so much. Wasn't long enough to see anyone but Cowboy kept asking me to tell him about JZ. She is missed and loved.

Second week.
And wow, being in Cleveland on a game day is intense. They gather and party for the games.
Glad to be home but Ohio was nice.
We have new mosquitos that can get through screens. I am eaten alive but they don't itch as much as usual, so that's a good thing. My arms are scary though.
there is no other kind of sinusitis but a nasty one. So gross. Had it many times in high school and college. Had to do it without sudafed too. Cause ironically? I'm kind of allergic.
teacher in my workshop said my work "had natural authority"--check that out.
Oooh, rough without Sudafed. I hate it because it makes me feel weird but it really works. I just elected Minders to tell me if I was acting weird.
There is a lot of drama and bad things in the family currently so I needed a Minder.
Still I love the Nephlet. I think he's the closest thing I will have to a child. It's good to see him with a good partner where they mesh and support each other. He's a good kid. Adult. Whatever.
my work "had natural authority"Whoo!
Duran Duran!! That sounds amazing.
I can totally see “natural authority” as a thing your work would have, erika.
I'm not even sure if allergic is quite the right word...maybe just "highly sensitive to." But it makes me so dry that my system freaks out. I know, right? It probably helps to write things that I really know, instead of wishing for some other life as a district attorney. Nephlet is lucky to have found his person, so young, too.
