I will accept having to use Teams with outside vendors if it means I never have to try to build and updated content and sites using Salesforce. I want to burn all of Salesforce to the ground.

Salesforce is made from pure evil.

What are other folks doing this weekend

I'm working until at least midnight tonight. Tomorrow night I'm have a few friends over to drink whiskey. And around all of that just trying to stay ahead of the curve on the piles of work and stress.

Probably unpacking more boxes. I want the front room cleared by early December so we can actually have a Christmas tree this year.

Punishingly Intricate

We’re staying at my aunt and uncle’s place in Lewes, DE for a little vacation weekend. Went on a bike ride today and we’re meeting up with my cousin and his wife for oysters tonight.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

There's a gallery show that is closing that I want to get to, and another one that just opened. Plus, I've got two of my own half-fished rolls of film in cameras that I need to work on. The last couple of times I went out I hadn't really been able to get into the zone, but there's nothing I can do except keep trying.

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

Hi, friends. Nothing new to report here. Today was a volunteer appreciation day of some sort to one of the two/three volunteer gigs I'm in. So for three hours we got a nice picnic and a short tour of YMCA in Jerusalem. We're operating from the grass visible in this picture: [link] and a few rooms in one of the buildings in it. Not that any of us had the time to lift our heads and observe the views until now, but today we could. It's a gorgeous building, with architectural elements from the Mamluks to Art Deco. That was nice.

My ~ma to those who need it.

Not staying on the computer for any longer than it takes to report that the animals are fed, Skinner walked, I am fed, about to take a shower and read till I drop to sleep. In somewhere VA, and will stop tomorrow in Savannah. The hotel has a (slow) Tesla charger so that is a time saver.

Zzzzz

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

Timelies all!

It’s quiet here. Gary is on a short business trip (left yesterday, gets back late tonight) and Mr. S is with the nanny. I’ll just enjoy it while it lasts.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

My mom has now been chipped (heart monitor loop), and I spent the afternoon loafing and cuddling cats since I had to get up well before dawn for the hospital trip.

Plans include digging up the dead evergreen shrubs in front of my house, planting giant alliums in their place, and possibly painting a garage door with a second coat.
