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!
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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.
Do people have plans for the holiday weekend?
Jim and I are off to see Bev and her good spouse!

Not really; running errands tomorrow and then organizing things over the long weekend. Having my car in the shop really restricts what I can do.

Oh, that's awesome, amyparker!
We are going to a friends' gathering on Monday at one friend's "new" house... that they bought just before pandemic. Can't wait to see my peeps!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yay! Yes parker and fella are our first gesture at socializing in a while. There will assuredly be fireworks, not while parker's here, though. DNW.

I went to an actual party tonight! And it was wonderful. It was supposed to be on a rooftop but the weather didn’t cooperate. But even for outdoors it was explicitly vaccinated only per the host/birthday girl, so the move to inside wasn’t such a big deal.
Mozzie, otoh. He is not prepared to be on his own. Even with half a trazodone, every time we checked in he was climbing the walls. (Almost literally - once I looked in and saw him leap from an arm chair up to the desk.) And def some howling. Once we got home he chilled out pretty quickly though.

Well the rest of my day was better—hung out in my friend’s backyard for a bit with her and the dogs, then went and had dinner and went to the women’s basketball game. Where I also ran into other friends, yay! And got an invite to hang out with friends who just moved, at their new house, and bring the dog, tomorrow! So yay. We are supposed to have good weather too.
Though I forgot to close the windows in my bedroom and it is now 58 in here. Yikes! Time to grab that extra blanket…

Do people have plans for the holiday weekend?
A friend of mine invited me over for Karen food. (The group from SE Asia—no managers will be requested.) And at some point we’ll be watching Raising Arizona as part of the summer Coen-Sturges film fest.

What is even happening?
They invited you over for potato salad with raisins, Calli?

We have a graduation party today for Casper's best friend. Casper and her friend are trying to friend-match us with the parents; they say we are both quiet nerdy couples who need more friends.
I also want to take Iris The Dog to the big park with a creek where people take their dogs. She loves water but hasn't been swimming yet. The only problems will be getting her to leave, and getting her clean.
