From your keyboard to God's desk? I don't know.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Shir, I am so relieved to see your pixels every day - thank you for checking in throughout this horrorshow.

Migraine aside, I have never felt so calm and empowered and confident ever.

Smonster, this made me so happy to see! You deserve all the calm empowerment feelings!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Shir, I’m so sorry. Wishing you and yours safety and peace.

Go, smonster! I’m so happy for you.

We’re having a lazy day off in the Teacup house.

Thanks for checking in, Shir. So horrible. Constantly thinking of you and everyone there.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I’ve been actively avoiding the news, so I’ve only gotten bits and pieces. I didn’t realize how bad it was. Shir, I’m so sorry you and everyone there has to deal with this.

Y’all are making me blush. I’m so touched by your joy in my joy. Had a lovely affirming chat with beekaytee this afternoon.

My local EDS group was full of chatter about allll the symptoms I’ve been having, because weather-related flares are a thing. I don’t think I realized until now that I have them. The migraine is still lingering and I had to leave work at lunch time.

Migraines can definitely be very weather related.

I don’t usually watch hardly any tv but am visiting my sister and they keep the tv on the news all day and night. It’s been a lot…I can’t even imagine living through it.

Our wings are not tired.

Buffista hivemind! Later this month (20-22) I am going to Salem with DH, my son, and GF. It is a farewell excursion. On the way home we will drop Brendon off at Logan to head to Florida, and I will follow somewhere around the end of the month with the animals. We are actually staying at an Airbnb in NH because the rates closer to Salem are crazy making—also the advantage of a full kitchen to cut down on eating out.

Lana (GF) has sent me links to various tours, but I am sure some of you have been there and might have some recommendations. In particular, they are both avid readers and will want to stop at a bookstore. But ya know, touristy tours are always family fun.

Any ideas will be appreciated. We may even go to Boston and do the aquarium thing on Sunday because DH will be staying in a Boston hotel Sunday night before his super early flight on Monday.

I used to do that, but news burnout is real. Now if we have background noise it is HGTV or old syndicated series that we don't have to pay attention to, like Star Trek and such.
