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.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Happy birthday, lisah!

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

Oh no! Argh.
I’m at CVS for my scheduled flu shot and they have COVID available so I’m getting that, too. Probably not Moderna, but nice timing.

I usually wait for October to get those, but I should maybe get them ahead of surgery (which is not scheduled yet, and may well not happen before October).
