Also, maybe OT would have gone better if I had that therapist. I always got either the boring one with no sense of humor. Or, probably, in retrospect, somebody who was just mad because her life blew up in ways that had nothing to do with me, but she's gonna leave me with a complex anyway(I hope that made her feel better because dragging it around for over thirty years hasn't done much for me.) Except that my feeling when I got cut off from therapy was an immense relief that abled people never understand.
Maybe I've always been here.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well, have booked a flight and car and a hotel near the airport for my reunion. The only way I have seen to buy tickets to the actual thing is using Zelle and I don't have that, so I may have to interact with a human being (who I apparently went to school with but don't remember at all so I proactively feel terrible)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Bummed about Dolly. She was a Good Person.
Tomorrow we get up at Stupid O'Clock to catch a 9 am flight to L.A. for the World Science Fiction Convention.(Actually in Anaheim.) Should be fun, if we don't melt.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
Oh, geez. Tim Curry now, too.
