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.

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 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.

Polar bears would be very satisfying

Sorry about everything dental, Theo. Healing soothing vibes.

Exeunt dragged by bears.

Hooray for safe travels. David, that was a lovely dream. Brenda, I look forward to hearing about Cymbeline.

I have never noticed the lack of lit exit signs and running lights before in my life.

I was distracted from the shit show of our government (and it's parasites) for a few hours by an emergency trip to the vet this morning. Gilda is home and resting now, but it turns out the sudden onset of vestibular disease is pretty disconcerting. She was upset because she didn't know why the world was spinning and I didn't know what was wrong or how to help her. Her eyes were jittering from side to side, poor old girl. She got some fluids and anti-nausea meds and her eyes settled down so now she just walks like she's drunk. Even so, she's highly offended that I piled stuff in all the high perches she likes to sit in. I tried to take away the ramp to the bed but she just jumped up anyway, so the ramp is back. I'll have to pill her once a day for a while (2 weeks maybe) so I hope the pill pockets are a welcome treat. This could either fade away on it's own or be a sign of something unwelcome in her brain. Given that she's nearly 20yrs old I decided not to go down the latter diagnostic path.

Well I tried calling my rep and Senators tonight, but on the 2nd call the sound on my phone was cutting out. Not sure if it was on my end or theirs. I left 2 long messages about Musks illegal bs, but when the connection was bad again on the third call I bailed. I urged them to not vote, not allow a quorum, to let anything else more forward until this is stopped. Plan to call every night moving forward.

This is all fucking insane and I’ve got precious few nails left to bite.
