Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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

Anyone do anything fun over the holiday weekend?

Matilda is home now and we started watching Hacks together.

Last Thursday I attended my friend Jes' drag show at Booksmith. That's always fun.

I'm shopping for a flat/condo for Emmett and his gf and this one is cute and in the right price range so I've requested a tour with them tomorrow: [link]

Feel free to Le Gasp at SF prices but they're actually about to soar upwards after the mega IPOs coming out soon by OpenAI and Anthropic.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I love the kitchen cabinet color in that flat, Hec!

Anyone do anything fun over the holiday weekend?

I spent Memorial Day at my sister’s marina with her boater buddies. It was fun. Sunny, upper 70s with a breeze, plenty of food and drink. I’d kinda like to sneak something a little more adventurous into their rotation of bland 70s and 80s pop music, but since I’m getting free brats and shots, that seems a little churlish. Once I’m contributing a bit more, maybe I’ll introduce them to the wonders of Tom Waits.

I sent the link to Emmett and Kalena and Kalena said she'd just been looking at that listing.

Just talked to the real estate agent and we're trying to get a tour tomorrow afternoon.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

My friends were in town from Wednesday-today, so I spent a lot of wonderful time with them, watching TV and movies, with a two-day break in the middle to go to my MIL's funeral. So it's been an interesting week.

Our wings are not tired.

That place is super cute, Hec.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

shopping for a flat/condo

I tried to tempt my cousin with this one, but I couldn't get him interested.: [link]
