Have had a slightly stressful day including trying to track down my missing iPods (currently over Ireland) and figuring out work stuff. But then I nipped off the Harrod’s where I am currently having tea. Well, cappuccino because it’s 6 PM and comes in decaf. But it is lovely and comes accompanied by scones and clotted cream.

Also got a bunch of souvenirs (tea, shortbread, marmalade, and fancy chocolates.)

I’ll probably go back to the food Emporium to grab something to take back with me for dinner. Even though it takes longer, I think I will probably figure out a route back that incorporates the Uber boat. Reclaiming my chill!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

My lunch is leftover pizza, which tastes awesome, but now I want scones and clotted cream.

It’s pretty amazing I won’t lie.

I'm back from dentists, but will be going back in an hour or so (why NOT come home to eat lunch?) for an Actual Extraction.

The exams, 180 degree xrays, and this amazing 3D mapping of my teeth came to $683, and the actual extraction will cost more.

Getting implants and stuff to bring mouth up to snuff down the line could cost up to $100K. Not kidding.

I'm not even going to look at the news, I think. I'm close enough to vomiting from nerves as it is.

Dental stuff is so stressful, Theo.

I’m back in SF, in line at Customs.

My back and legs do not like these long flights at all. Missing my posh baths in Japan.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Anyway, Cashmere, the event was so packed and so busy that I didn't get a chance to talk to the organizers. But I'll check this week to see if I can get you an email so you can talk to them.

Thanks, Teppy. I did some sleuthing and found the event online. I'll contact someone and see if I can't get some further details. I am so happy the event was successful. I know a lot of places here that would be pretty cool about doing similar here.

You are awesome! Let me know if you need me to do some legwork here.

Glad you’ve made it home David, and with JZ’s blessing.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I don't need a full scale invasion, I just want to watch Musk dragged out of the country by Mounties.

Personally I'd prefer polar bears whose habitat is being destroyed by the extra heat from his data centers, but I'm not that picky about who does the dragging so long as it gets done.

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

Polar bears would be very satisfying
