You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I think Beep Me is appropriate. It's a lovely goodbye to our friend. Beep Me.

Thanks, Cass. Heading over there now.

A lovely tribute.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
No brain shenanigans were seen on an EEG or my blood work. Now apart from some still unexplained hyponatremia (but good kidney function) episodes, I'm probably healthy though low-sodium is not my friend.
Woo Hoo! Keep those sodium levels up!

I never did leave the house, but I got some vacuuming done (much to Spare Cat's dismay) and divers household tasks.

I have not vacuumed yet. The Boy feels unwell so is out for, at minimum, most of this weekend. But I still have not vacuumed. The timing is bad given I am going back to work Monday but there is aways space in the future for distasteful times. Like vacuuming.
But all of the salty snacky things that I crave? I've got those down. All hail having sodium available when the water/sodium level needs internal adjustment.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I’ve watched 7 movies and 3 shorts this weekend so far. Hoping to knock out 2 more movies tomorrow.
I’m enjoying most everything so that is good.

I took my sister out for beer and guacamole at the Mexican beer place around the corner -- they turned the parking lot into a beer garden, and it's very breezy and distributed. And they have the absolute best tortilla chips around. And I bought potting soil and herbs, and alcohol (including rum for daiquiris), and groceries. And I took the dog crate to be repaired.
And I spent two hours on the couch reading ridiculous Star Wars time travel AUs. It's a day.

A day well spent! I am liking that London Breed is pushing to have the restaurant parklets to become permanent additions to the City. It really livens up the street in a good way.
