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

I had yet another "I haven't been going to these classes and now I don't even remember my schedule" dream.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I had yet another "I haven't been going to this classes and now I don't even remember my schedule" dream.

I wish I would stop having those. They're so tiresome.

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

Dana, I have those all the time.

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

We really must've burned those neural pathways pretty hard, huh? Or whatever it is brains do.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On the bright side, there was an article in the paper about a woman who had been married fairly recently. She and her husband to be had scheduled a wedding and then, in the pandemic, postponed it and ended up having a civil ceremony with few or no witnesses. She'd planned to have a big reception and bought a special dress ... but with no chance of having a reception any time soon, the dress remained unworn. Until she decided to wear it to her vaccination appointment - walked into the site wearing a fancy dress, did her hair and make-up, heels. The people administering the vaccine were amused and appreciative.

That's a friend of a friend! So fun.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I dreamed last night about being involved in some weird mash-up of Murder on the Orient Express and behind-the-scenes drama on a telenovela. Henry Cavill was involved, but alas dreaming brain didn't arrange a make-out session with him.

Jeez. I have had my phone in silent mode possibly since I got it, all the while wondering why I was missing calls. And now I have rolled my eyes right out of my head at myself, so that's not going to increase productivity

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

Timelies all!

The downside to Mr. S going to sleep fairly quickly is that he's woken up early the last few days.(and then demands "Daddy open my door!" when there is nothing physically preventing him from doing it himself. sigh)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

She's 95 next week, and Prince Charles does not inspire affection.

Never mind him, the one that gives me the wig is Camilla peering gimlet-eyed like a Dark Crystal muppet beneath her haystack of raw flax and her tiara the size of a garden fence--or hat the size of a small ketch in full sail. I'm surprised Wills' tots call her granny instead of "Mrs. Grandpa."

The dress up vaccine friend of a friend of Jesse's is awesome! (Though obviouy not the fact that she had to postpone everything.)

I was in the first of five (9a-4p!) Zoom sessions for a workshop given by the JCA in our area for job seekers 50+. It was pretty good! Then the facilitator called after it was over today to ask whether I would be the mock interviewee for the group (that happens Monday). I cheerfully agreed. I think there was a time in my life that that would have made me so self-conscious! That time, apparently, has passed. Getting older def has its benefits. Anyway, I was so tickled. "They like me! They really like me!" Total goofball, I am.
