Does anybody mind if I pass out?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yes, Atropa, meant to say that I disapproval (leaving the typo, because funny) of you having caught COVID. And more that you have to weather some of it alone.

Laura, please post some pics!! I miss fall, so so much. Really hope we get to move somewhere that has fall some day.

AFGO indeed. I hope that today is less physically and emotionally challenging.

Yes, well*. I think it’s going to be more connections and epiphanies, but they are mostly “well shit” rather than “oh fuck, yikes.” Or I’ve had the yikes and now I’m letting it settle instead of fretting. SO WEIRD.

* Autocorrect, I understand “we’ll” but not “welol.”

Eggs and home fries: I literally just had about 10 more minor epiphanies in the shower, not a euphemism, including an epiphany about epiphanies. And because I am part of this community, it’s shifted how I view the Angel episode Epiphany and honestly, the whole series and Angel’s emotional story arc.

One example - all this time I have envious of people who seem not to GAF, which is why I was drawn to alcoholics and such. But what is healthier and more truly satisfying to me, potentially, is learning how to PLAY and be artistic and creative. And that’s one reason R is such a good partner for me, because they are all about creativity and play and fucking it up to do it better. That is neither a natural skill for me not one I have had modeled.

* Pohl Serious, autocorrect, really? Doing a MEARA may suck; OTOH voice to text is kind of fun, and also sometimes leads to intentional hilarity.

Coffee: and, dear god, that’s why my sister has never really tapped into her creativity. She has natural talent but can’t let herself fuck up and definitely cannot take critiques

This is what I mean. Just, the next level has unlocked and I’m having cascading epiphanies. So I think it’s going to be that kind of day, coupled with pain mitigation. And maybe I’ll fuck some shit up, creatively.

Sounds both tiring and really good, smonster. The pain, in the other hand, just sucks, so I wish you amelioration there.

Gorgeous day here. I would like to spend time cleaning out my office... while looking out the window, I guess?

I also have this weird thing where I basically like my clothes, except for the tops. I mostly hate my tops. I may try to see about getting a couple new ones today.

Our wings are not tired.

Laura, please post some pics!! I miss fall, so so much.

I am to please and hope to take some today. Wednesday I am going to ride up the ski lift to take overall mountain top views. I have to ride with my eyes closed and digging into DH's arm, but the view when I get up there is nice. (May have to walk down)

< This is what I mean. Just, the next level has unlocked and I’m having cascading epiphanies.

Sounds challenging, but I'm thinking fucking up shit creatively might help too.

love the autocorrects

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Good morning. I got an email from quester and she is locked out of the board. Can someone reach out to her? I’m not at home and on my phone and do not remember if I can even do that.

Hope everyone has enjoyable Sundays.

She needs to click the forgot password link then she will get an email. If there is a way to force the email I don't know what it is. I'll email her....

Epiphanies can be some bullshit.

Good luck with epiphanies!

I have minimal plans today but also really need to do boring stuff like dishes and some cooking. But last night someone’s stupid car next door kept having the alarm (?) go off multiple times (the honking.kind not the wailing kind at least?). Extremely obnoxious. But better on a Saturday night than a weeknight I suppose. Hopefully won’t happen again.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I sat up too late reading fic, and then there was a sideshow a block away that went on for at least an hour, with bonus gunfire, helicopters, and police sirens. Dog was not happy. Bleah.

Thought I should share this with Buffistas. First, buy a chateau: [link]

Today I have to vacuum and buy dog food, then go pick up wine, then go to a wine-and-nibblies party hosted by a non-profit camp I donate to. I should go rock-climbing but I haven't been in 3 months and I gave blood the other day, so I know I will be terrible. Bah.
