Dana, ugh. Glad it wasn't worse, but that still sucks.

Ack, Dana! So glad it was not worse.

Local network? What's that?(Gee, turns out hanging out because you're physically broken in some of the same ways is meh for relationship longevity.)

One package of bubble wrap for Dana, coming up.

I am also still vibrating from Saturday, more in a good way than bad. But I do want to put one thing out there to everyone who hugged me on Saturday, whether it was the first time or after long years apart: Thank you, more than I'll ever be able to express. Yes, it was a lot to take in. But it felt so *safe.* What the Empress said upthread about every hug letting her relax and unclench just a little bit more -- yeah, that was so true for me. (Aims, you're incredible and I love you so much.)

Which meant that I got home and bawled my eyes out for a couple of hours, of course. But that catharsis had been stuck in my chest for months. The 2020s have been a lot for me, y'all. But at least I still have my fierce, sweet Buffistas.

Plei getting me to Ballard might be difficult, but I am willing to do it on occasion! Especially if you manage to pirate that show I was telling you about....

Glad everyone is managing to eventually get home!

Gotta go look up Nilly's link to add more photos. Hoping someone has more full-length photos, I mostly have selfies! (LOL looks like I duplicated--someone had already uploaded the photos I posted to Facebook)

Aw, Karl. With you in spirit if not in physical being.((K))) Once again, the social worker needs more help than I. (irritated noise) Gotta love the reschedule e when Ms. Frond(not her real name, but should be) is late already.

Like the worst reality show ever "Who's The Real Cripple?"

PM, did you say your people make a 2-factor Android app? I seem to need one for work and I'd prefer one with at least some provenance.

Profile addy is good if you don't want to say publically.

Also, hi all!

I still haven't watched the full memorial. I was going to today but it's been a day. I did cut my own hair, I've never done that before. I watched a youtube video in whole, skimmed through some. Didn't really do anything they recommended and M had to clean up some of the cut that I botched. But it doesn't look horrible --it's all one length and just below my shoulders. I didn't attempt bangs or layering. I've just been lazy about going some where and getting it cut.

Plei getting me to Ballard might be difficult, but I am willing to do it on occasion!

I am also willing to make the occasional trek to Ballard! (And also trying to reconstruct a friend network post-pandemic and post-that one friend who always invited me to everything moving across the country.)

We're back from my niece's graduation in Oklahoma. She's grown into an impressive young woman--3rd in her class of ~425, headed to Drury University (a small college in Missouri I hadn't heard of before, but it seems to have really good programs) for pre-med.
