I got stupid. The money was too good.

Sounds perfect, Kate! Good to hear.

Back from the library dealio. The regional NPR guy did a reading of The Raven and was dressed in period duds. It was nice. I didn't win any of the raffles. Oh well.

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

Timelies all!

Happy birthday Kate!

I am just so tired of all this. I’m tired of not having a stove, not having privacy, Mr. S having awful nights.(I’m in the lobby yet again because I’m too frustrated with his antics, which I know isn’t fair to Gary)

How much longer before you can get back home, Sheryl?

The sounds of celebration are in the air and today we celebrate brenda m! Happy birthday, Brenda. May this day and the year to come be filled with delight. From the pictures I have seen you are off to a most excellent start!

Happy Birthday, Brenda!

And Happy Birthday +1 to Kate!

I'm going to visit my aunt at the beach today through Friday. Many miles to go before I depart...

Beaming love to all.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Meanwhile, in local humor: one survivor posted this picture of his house [link] it says: "We always felt that not enough natural light entered the house".

Shir, I am not getting the photo, but bless him for keeping his humor.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh, sorry. I accidentally copied the wrong link, it's fixed now.

Fixed. And Oh My! Tough to keep a sense of humor there.

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

Dermatological Update: the Prednisone has stopped the swelling except a little puffiness under one eye. Also, it's not itchy or burning anymore.

Dr. Watkins has booked me for a Red Light Treatment at 11:30 am today which should alleviate the irritation and redness.

I'm at the stage where my old skin is flaking off everywhere. My skin is very scaly waiting for my new snake skin to emerge.

ION, Jacqueline got her new bank debit card which means I have until Halloween to change all of her autopays which are numerous. Oh well, this will push me to finish that series of Onerous Tasks.

Unhoused Teenagers Update: Niki texted me the other day and asked me to take her to the Optician to get new glasses because she needs to go with an adult. She asked Matilda if she thought I'd mind. Matilda said, "Are you kidding?! He's the one that's been pestering the school counselors to get you new glasses." So I get to take her to her appointment.
