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.

I was randomly checking for vaccine appointments tonight, and Walgreens just released a bunch of appointment slots. I scheduled my first and second dose! March 24th, here we come!

Woot! I should get on that shit.

Did everyone but me know that David Tennant has a podcast where he basically just interviews his friends and people he's worked with? I've listened to a bunch of episodes this weekend and they're just lovely. I particularly recommend the ones with Michael Sheen and Olivia Colman, where you can just feel how much they care for each other. It's like listening to some old friends catch up with each other for an hour and compliment each other, and it's given me a real (and much needed) boost of serotonin. Highly recommended.

Oh, yes, Tennant’s podcast is lovely!

Yay vaccine appointment, shrift!

I spent a good chunk of yesterday getting my apartment ready to receive furniture I’d lent to Amyth. Her high school and college friends are doing most of her apartment cleaning, and much as I’d like to be helpful, that’s probably just as well. The cleaning on my end took a good chunk of the day. It was the bookcase, mostly. It’s not just rehousing that, it’s finding new spots for all the contents. Eventually the dressers I’m getting back may go to my great niece, if she (or more realistically, her mom) wants them. They’re decent furniture—solid oak with carved floral bits.

amyparker, thank you so much for posting Amyth's obituary. It's beautiful.

Calli, that's a lot, in terms of work done, and emotional labor, too.

Cass, some years back, I ended up needing a biopsy because of some weird blood thing. The results ended up being, "Well, that was weird, but it's not a problem, just weirdness." I wish you my just-weirdness.

eta: My timing is, as usual, terrible. Oh, well ::sigh::

dcp, I have had that feeling before, but by the same token, that's one of the things I like best about Natter. It's not sustained conversation about anything — it's sustained natter about everything. Maybe that's why your Christmas cactus felt free to let its freak flag fly.

Sheryl, my sleep (which is seldom normal) has been more irregular than usual, I think because of the time change. I hope you had a better rest last night.

Beverly, I hope you feel better.

Shrift, I'm glad you're getting jabbed.

Woot! I should get on that shit.

Get a move on, Hec.

Love to all. Also love to dcp's cactus update. And thank you for All Things Amyth's updates. It helps to read them.

But I do have to report that having to move four full archival boxes one floor up when the elevator is broken gets very little love from me.

Nice meara, Cindy. A good meara is a thing of beauty. As is, you know, actual meara.

Yay, shrift! My DP got his notification from the county yesterday at the same time I was out getting jabbed, so he goes in Wednesday for his first. So awesome.

I had a morning meeting (a good one!), a jab, some WoW, picked up the keys and met the very pleasant landlords yesterday. A good day. Forgive the crappy sentence construction. It's pre-coffee.

Today I'm guessing more WoW and maybe a drive. Next three days are all packing. It's finally at the "we can live without [x] for three days in the interest of being fully packed" phase of things.
