You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

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

That sounds like a lot of fun for everyone!

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

What does it mean when your car shudders and dies while in park and refuses to do anything after that? Nothing good I’m sure. Waiting for AAA now.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

That sounds very similar to a cousin's wedding I went to, except both ceremonies were held the same day. And then people went out afterwards? No idea how they had energy. Also, we were constantly being fed Indian food, which was awesome.

NGL, I can't wait for the Indian food.

I can't promise it won't be expensive, because every dang thing is, but a lot of your options are at least easy fixes. It could be the fuel filter or O2 sensor. It could even be a loose gas cap or loose battery cables.

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

Just got back from touring the facility for JZ's Memorial with Juliana (and Alexandra), Sylvie and Matilda.

As you may recall, Matilda babysat for Alexandra twice a week for most of lockdown, so Alexandra was very happy to see her and vice versa.

It's an amazing space and I'm glad I was able to get it. Everyone there is super professional and nice.

Exciting news: we can also request the house dog for the event and they'll put him in a wee tuxedo.

Then we all went to lunch at the wildly fun and OTT Son and Garden. Pictures at the Buffistas group on FB.

Thanks, Steph. After not being able to get the car started the whole time I waited for AAA, the gentleman they sent got it started right away. But my mechanic is going to run it on the machine and check for codes tomorrow. He did mention that it could be something as simple as a spark plug.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Hey, has anyone been in touch with Allyson in the past few weeks? I know she's been going through a rough patch, but I haven't seen her post here.
