Oh, that all sounds really good! The transit sounds similar to when I took summer classes in Berkeley commuting by BART from Lafayette, but faster, and that was quite pleasant and felt so much more grown up than when I was just walking from dorm to lecture hall during the year.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

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.

Oh, Hec, that sounds just amazing! I am so thrilled for her. I can't wait to hear tales! Do you suppose she'd maintain a blog just for the Buffistas? (Kidding. Mostly.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm so excited for Matilda! What an incredible experience she'll have.
If I haven't mentioned it yet today, the basement/foundation repair company is still at our neighbors' house. I'm beginning to think that they aren't repairing a hellmouth; maybe they're trying to conjure one.

lol, I don’t know how many of you are on TikTok, but it’s been pretty funny all the “welp, it’s been a good ride, where to next?” Today I saw one that said “y’all this is how the firefly universe starts—we all migrate to RedNote and learn Chinese swear words from regular people!”

Aw, man. Laura made a point of asking me to come here to wish The Nicest a Happy Birthday yesterday on her actual birthday, and I completely blew it! So...
Happy Birthday +1, msbelle! I wish for you a fabulous year ahead, filled with all kinds of good. May the good you do in the world come back upon you a thousand-fold.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Yes, Jen, exactly. On both fronts....

Oh, lordie, I get those. Or the 1130 meeting that goes for an hour. Happens all the time, esp in a nationwide organization, it's impossible to avoid. My one consolation is that I'm on the west coast and I hardly ever have any meetings after 3 pm.
I'm off for the long weekend, desperately trying to find a way to ignore the inauguration on Monday. Maybe I will just binge the Pottery Throwdown, but in order to do that I need to get more seasons, I was only able to find 2 seasons on the bay of pirates.
