I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

responding to Hec's post: The space is gorgeous, the dog is adorable, and Son & Garden is amazingly OTT. I've not eaten in a place that had a designated Instagram area before.

Matt, I'm sorry about your mom's cancer.

I think Allyson posted about a possible job interview today, so, vibes for that. so much difficult health news in thread lately. for a disabled person, I got off easily--not for gen pop, though. I'll be thinking about y'all for the memorial. I wish I could see you more often.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I’ve just figured out that I have 2.5 weeks to complete what is scheduled as an 11 week self-guided course. But it’s not just reading and a test. It is exercises and making comments on other class members posts and and AND!!! I think I over procrastinated beyond my abilities.

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

Timelies all!

Not much news here. Mr. S has been calling us, sometimes more than once a day. Haven't heard much from the doctor or the social worker, so we don't know when he'll been discharged.

Our wings are not tired

I'm so sorry Sheryl. I can't imaging how draining and difficult all of it must be.

So many hard things hitting so many good people right now. You’re very much in my thoughts.

I did not get ruptured this weekend. But I did (coincidentally) celebrate siblings day by getting together in DC with my two older sisters, one of whom I have not seen since I was 10, as well as my, uh, regular brother and sister and my SIL. Turned out to be a really great weekend all around that might or might not have, but definitely did, include getting matching tattoos.

Hey Tep, just how many +ones can you bring to this wedding? Asking for a bunch of friends.

Brenda, that sounds like an excellent weekend!

Wow, what a great weekend, Brenda! I'd like more details on the matching tattoos, please.

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

I'm also working with Juliana and Sylvie to put together a Buffista-specific get together during that weekend of Jacqueline's memorial. Most probably that Saturday night after the Memorial earlier that same day. (With a break to change costume and recharge after socializing.)

I will probably be beholden to visiting family responsibilities that Friday night, but, of course, Buffistae can gather ad hoc as they please that night.

I'll be with you in spirit.
