{{{Sheryl}}}
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Oh Sheryl, I think of you and Gary and Mr S all the time. I know you are doing your best for him.
In personally mildly exciting news, our new full-time programs assistant started, so my job just lost a lot of stress as I was the backup programs person when one of the others wasn't in (at least one day a week, and sometimes a lot more). She's taken to the job like a duck to water, too.
I even got to join in on a program item, since we had a short-story read-aloud session, and needed to recruit a couple more readers, and I'd finished all the paperwork that I hadn't had time for, so my performing itch got scratched.
Now if I can just get some stuff at home straightened out...

Thrive to spite them
I'm sorry Sheryl

Yay for less job stress !
I got good news from Mom..she's heard from her landlady (who lives where we did up on the mountain). And her landlady is giving everyone a rent furlough. So mom is using that to get donations to a friend of hers who lives in a more mountain area
Mom was looking for small bottles of liquid formula and finally found some.

Your mom is really truly paying it forward, then!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Thanks, all. I guess we'll just wait and see what happens.
In the meanwhile, Gary's aunt(who lives in California) is staying with us over the weekend. She has a board of directors meeting starting Monday, and decided to come here first. Hey, it gave us an excuse for cleaning the second bedroom. :)

Happy birthday, Jen!
I woke up at 4am after a tense dream where JZ and I were troubled over money.
Perhaps prompted by searching for something in my gmail yesterday and finding a fraught email exchange between us in 2009 when we were really struggling.
A couple weeks ago, though, I had a dream about her where she wiped out in a mud puddle and came up laughing. And it was good to see her laughing face again.
Anyway, I've been up since 4am, and after sitting on the edge of my bed in the dark, unable to sleep for a while I realized how gloomy that image was and decided to just get up for a bit.
It got up to 97 in SF yesterday. No bueno. But we're supposed to see a gradual decline starting today. Our houses are not built for hot weather! Nobody has AC. At least Matilda is staying comfortable in the Garden Apartment which is usually about 15 degrees cooler.
