Kaylee: You're nice, too. Mal: No, I'm not. I'm a mean old man.

Punishingly Intricate

Oh no, Pix, I’m so sorry!

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

We are safely arrived in our hotel in Beverly Hills!

Flight was delayed going out, but not too badly. Front Desk was able to accommodate my early check in request.

Dana will be pleased to know I watched Star Trek: Discovery, S2E01 on the way down.

It's overcast but the blue sky is trying to break through. Hoping the girls get a good poolside day after we eat lunch.

I need to watch the final season of Disco. S2 gets you Spock and the rest of the Enterprise, which is excellent.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

The dragon damask dress that I was wearing in SF? Svaha is now offering it in a caftan. Seriously [link]

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

That is awesome!

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

We had a fabulous lunch and the girls had mocktails: [link]

The sky is clear and blue and the weather is warm, and they've been given spending money to poke around the Beverly Center but now they are headed back to enjoy the poolside as intended.

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

Timelies all!

Another week down the tubes.

Mr. S has not gone to sleep before 10 this whole week. He didn't sleep in our room all the days, but it's still stressful, and I'm still waking up a couple of times during the night.

The replacement window for our front door has been installed, so we can see out our front door again.

I had an appointment with a dermatologist to look at some growths on my shoulder/neck. They turned out to be benign sebaceous something or the other. I had them cryofrozen, which I had to pay out of pocket(because cosmetic) and the area where they are is sore.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I actually tried a fan with streamers, but that didn't do the trick.

Maybe you need something with more variety. [link] or [link]

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Accountability post. I have to take this stupid certification test by Wednesday in order to get my reimbursement (over $1000). I have not studied enough, so I am doing it on a schedule this weekend.

Slept in be because my sleep has sucked and I’ve been super anxious.

Got food from bakery up the street + little walk.

Doing a tarot card turn to give my brain a focal point.

Taking a practice test to get a baseline of my non-studying knowledge.

From there I’ll evaluate.

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

Sounds like a good plan, msbelle. It's structured so you'll sneak up on the onerous task.

So far [knock wood] our trip has gone as intended. A little Fancy Feast for teen girls as graduation reward. They are enjoying themselves. They've discovered room service.

After our posh lunch, they have facials scheduled this afternoon.
