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

Timelies all!

Quiet day here. I did the weekly grocery run while Gary and Mr. S got haircuts.

msbelle, I'm glad the news on your mom is promising.

meara, yay dancing!

Weirdly ltc and TCG also got haircuts today, and then they went to my in-law's house and the park with them. I had the whole day to myself in a quiet house!

msbelle- that news sounds promising. I am putting off looking at my mammogram until Monday. I am a terrible person.

David/JZ- The worst surgery I have had yet was my wisdom teeth, which wasn’t;t that bad. May Matilda experience the same.

GUYS- I saw In The Heights in a theatre, with my mom! It was good, I recommend it even with quibbles, but I think it is a theatre movie. Also, the first time I have seen my mom since December 2019!

I just got back from watching In the Heights! I also enjoyed it with some minor quibbles. But I thought the transition from theater to film was well done.

I may go see In the Heights tomorrow with a friend! And today was Rory’s first birthday! He is 1! Not my babydog anymore he’s a real boy! We had a party with friends at the dog park and he ate a pup cake and tried to eat the birthday hat and generally seemed to have a good time.

What is even happening?

msbelle, I'm glad to hear the news about your mom.

Hec, I'm glad Matilda's dental adventure is over. Is Emmett in grad school?

Dylan is getting a Presidential Award for Educational Excellence this year and I'm so proud of him but also incredibly relieved he didn't graduate 8th grade during the Trump administration.

Congrats to Dylan, Jessica!

My kids' National Honors Society certificates were signed by Trump. My younger son wanted to rip it up, but I wouldn't let him.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is Emmett in grad school?

Oh no! He's still finishing his BA. He's kind of on the six year plan. We made a mistake sending him to college when he was still 17 (turning 18 that September), and not really ready for it. He would've benefitted from a gap year. Also, he spent a few years where he was working full time and only taking one or two classes a term.

Anyway, he took a full load this term, back at his original Uni. He should be done by this time next year, at age 25.

J's taking a gap...series of years. I don't know if she'll ever go back. Good for Emmett for returning!
