Our wings are not tired

I'm down in Irvine to teach today, then it's back across LA to keep working on other projects. I'm run down and feel like I can't get ahead of anything, but I'm just getting up each day and taking it on as I can.

Shir, glad to hear you are still doing OK. That's exciting to hear about your US trip shaping up. I hope we get to see you!

Shir looks like you’re maybe set for Seattle but let me know if not, I have a guest room!

{{ND}} Likewise. I'd be very happy to see you and Pix again.

I'm just getting up each day and taking it on as I can.

Very relatable for completly different reasons. Hang in there. Today I was too angry at my government in order to concentrate at my work for about two hours.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

I am back home and safe and dry and on the way to getting warm (it was 53F in the house when I walked in), and I have electricity and Internet. This has been entirely too much adventure for one week. Power went out Sunday afternoon around 3:30 and didn't come back until 9am this morning. Whee!

Glad to read this, babe. Power kind of goes out a lot here...kind of freaks me out. But I think it might be fun with you...sitting around reading fanfiction by flashlight.

.... or, something.

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

Glad you are home, Karl. I had local news coverage of the power outages your way this morning and wondered how you were doing.

Yeah, between 4400 and 5000 households up on our hill (I live just below Hwy 35 on the border between Daly City and Pacifica) lost power on Sunday. Most of them came back Tue morning, but some were later. Props to the PG&E crews working through the nights, but big boo to PG&E management, who have known for decades that the wires up here need to be underground.

Thanks for the thoughts, erika and -t. I'm glad to be back.

After a few hours, I start flipping out.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I don't think mine are major, but I do feel like they are getting worse. I keep trying to explain to my husband that we cannot rely on my short-term memory at the moment, but I used to have a really good memory, and I don't think he understands exactly how quickly information flies out of my brain at the moment.

Yes! I don’t have any coping mechanisms for not remembering anything, because I could always remember everything. And people are relying on me.

Twenty years ago my 50 year old boss told me about this and I did not listen.
