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

It's on focaccia rather than whatever Central Grocery uses, and it's not quite as huge though still big enough that I am glad they automatically wrapped the halves separately. I honestly haven't had one in a long enough time that I could not tell you how "right" it tastes but it's certainly delicious! Would buy again. Both salads (one called Artichoke Salad and one called Beet Salad) are also quite tasty - I probably should have gotten the dressing on the side so they would keep better since I likely won't eat them until tomorrow. Perhaps I will remember that next time. This one or two bites of each thing lunch was very pleasant for me, though.

And I am reminded how much I like Crockett, I should get over there more. I barely get to places that are *not* across a bridge from me, though, so maybe that is an unrealistic idea.

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

Timelies all!

This weekend is the annual Folklore Society Getaway. We are going without Mr. S, as it would be logistically difficult and there isn’t much kid programming. First in-person Getaway since the pandemic.

I didn’t see it until just now when it fell off, but the nurse gave me a Spider-Man bandaid fir my flu shot. So now I feel special.

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

So now I feel special.

I can personally vouch for this.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I got my updated covid shot today, just in time for my new immunity to kick in before my trip to Georgia next month to visit family/have a personal writing and general relaxation retreat in the mountains near the NC border/go to a con that looks to have a lot of writing-related workshops.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Hadestown tonight. I think I cried discreetly.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Experience suggests that everyone else was also crying discreetly and likely did not notice.

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

My head-wound was hurting and I took Ibuprofen and thought, "Well, that will help."

But it didn't help enough. And it took me two hours to remember their main advisory: Ice it.

Which helped.

This is why the patient shouldn't have to look after themself.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I’m glad Sweeney Todd was good.

I’m holding off on my COVID and flu shots for a couple more weeks. I figure I should ride the post-COVID immunity a little longer and get the most effective versions of the flu vaccine. I understand that tends to get fine tuned a bit over autumn.

Joining those doing things that interest them, I signed up for a presentation from my local art museum on the Etruscans. They’re less well known than the classical Romans, but what I’ve heard sounds neat.

Now I want a fancy sandwich. My favorite bahn mi place let me down last time, so I’m not sure if I’ll realize that desire today.
