Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

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

Timelies all!

Yay Susan!

We are back in the house. I cleared out the last of the stuff from the hotel last night and checked out. On the upside, we have a working stove, range top and fridge. On the downside, the sink is awaiting a new disposal, so that's not usable. They are supposed to be bringing our stuff from storage starting tomorrow. Still, it's nice to be sleeping in my own bed again.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

there is a vase with three red roses on the kitchen table

My first thought was the trigger from Dollhouse until I remembered it's Feb 14.

It’s so clearly edging to harassment but then is also not overt enough to check any clear boxes. Never asked them out, never used innuendo.

I worked with a designer like that. The most egregious moment was him asking me to keep stepping closer so he could look at the design on my shirt. After a couple steps I told him to look at the shirts in the gift shop. A couple of my crew were there and they found it as uncomfortable as I did.

Hooray, Susan!

Recovery~ma for shrift's dad and Beverly's DH. I hope the tire repair goes smoothly.

We are back in the house.

Hooray, Sheryl! My brother has been going through the same thing. They've been out of their house since August and probably have another month to go.

I texted my brother late this afternoon to check if he had gone to the parade in KC. He had no idea anything had happened because he had spent the entire day scraping popcorn off the ceiling in the house. I know my parents were planning to watch the parade on tv. I'm still perusing FB for various friend check-ins. The one who was posting videos from the parade is safe.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

About to head out to my second Ash Wednesday service of the day, since apparently I suck at putting things on my calendar and therefore didn't remember I was doing the readings at the 7 PM service until I saw my name in the back of the bulletin halfway through the noon one. Oops!

I suspect the getting things from my inbox onto my calendar challenge is yet another women of a certain age with ADHD thing...

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

Sheesh, Bev! That sounds stressful as hell all the way around.

I'm glad you're home safe, and hope DH gets quick relief.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Well that sounds like a crappy day, Beverly. I hope today goes better.

Congrats on getting back into your home, Sheryl!

I’m starting my day with coffee to hand and a purring cat on my lap, which is a nice beginning.

Bev! No good, I'm glad you're safe and sound and have kind neighbors... with cars. Good health/recovery vibes to DH. And, or, stone remnant passing vibes if there's still an issue with that.

Sheryl, such good news.

Today holds the promise of a being solid, productive work day. I need that today and tomorrow.

Because books.

Oh Bev, that's a lot. Healing vibes to B., and big hugs and love for you.
