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.

My great-grandparents' home is back on the market.

Jim says he is very sorry, but he cannot buy the property and teleport it here: we would, in fact, have to live in Pennsylvania. I think this is a failure of imagination on his part. LOOK what those heathens did to the kitchen, never mind the bathroom! That price, I could afford to bring in people who knew what they were doing in to put it right, provided I could distract my dad with something shiny to keep him from assuming the general contractor role . . . .

(This is the moment when Bev and Plei and Atropa rush in, sit on me, hide the keyboard and sing the "No More Old Houses" song until I come to my senses.)

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

The thought of the Seattle peeps saving Parker from herself is going to make me smile all day.

But - but - they kept the sunroom mosaic tile! Most of the woodwork's unpainted and I think the pocket doors are intact! (All right, the goobers painted the picture rail, but at least it's still there.) I could put gas coal baskets in four of those fireplaces and it would look amazing! Those curtains are a TRAVESTY; if I showed Jim's mom those pictures I'd have a FedEx envelope full of linen samples 20 minutes after I signed the paperwork.

I COULD FIX IT.

Our wings are not tired.

Cute, and very fixable, but yeah, the location is problematic.

Do people have plans for the holiday weekend?

I took a chance with my vaccinated self and went to the Korean spa. New place I hadn’t been to. The facilities were nice, the body scrub was good, but omg maybe the worst massage I’ve ever had.

Party tomorrow that's combined Memorial Day/Tim's Dad's birthday. First time the whole family will be getting together since Christmas of 2019, so yay!

Nice! It should be nice to see everyone together. Enjoy.

We have a BBQ to go to Sunday. That should be good. Son Bobby and family will be there too. The usual suspects are coming on Monday to shoot pool instead of Sunday. I may fire up the grill for them. Alas, we have work to do tomorrow.

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Gud and Sean!

Virtual Balticon is this weekend, though how much of it I'll get to enjoy is a good question. Gary is running the filk/music track, so I'll probably be doing a bit of Mr. S wrangling. Plus the forecast is showing rain for a good part of the weekend. Sigh...

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

We'll be under an excessive heat warning on Monday, so that will limit my options to either lying in front of a fan or maybe going to the movies. Will try to enjoy being outside and not melting on Sat and Sun, though!

Jim and I are off to see Bev and her good spouse!
