A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

We took a Waymo this morning part of our way. The robot car did a much better job than the robot barista in the airport that dropped my cup and proceeded to brew the coffee cupless. (It eventually recognized there was an issue and is supposedly refunding me.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It was nice to see folks in the livestream(wish I could have stayed longer) and in the chat.

Hey, if there are any people in the know (Teppy or someone else), can I go from 450 of Wellbutrin XL to 300 without titrating? There was some kind of mishap with pills, so I'm about to run out even though they were supposedly filled in April, and of course I leave town on Wednesday, which is not a lot of time to argue with insurance.

That dosage change should be fine. Stopping 450 mg cold turkey would probably give some withdrawal symptoms, but 450 to 300 is just stepping down a dosage.

Another one whose plans were foiled by BART. I walked to the station and schlepped my bag down the stairs at 6:30 and then found out they don’t run until eight on Sundays. Doh!

But I got a car and made it in plenty of time so no harm no foul. Just made it home from the airport a little while ago. Happy exhausted.

I’m happy to start loading up some pictures to a Google Docs somewhere.

Thanks, Steph. You are, as always, a lifesaver.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

SFistas riddle me this, how is your entire city made of uphill.

My Fitbit is extremely pleased with me! My knees, less so!

it was lovely to spend some time wandering North Beach and Fisherman's Wharf with Shir! (And Tom, and Jessica, and megan) OTOH I forgot my sunscreen this morning.

I got home about 3:30 and crashed hard for over an hour. Bah. My knees are fine but I wish I had worn a hat. And I am still full.
