On the downside my wasp-stung foot still hurts a little.
On the plus side, Scola arrives today.
It's a little-known fact that the best cure for a wasp sting is a visit from Scola.
Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Thank you! Not a ton of celebrating today, but we'll maybe go out to eat, and then I'll do something with my local friend this weekend.
Husband has met neighbors and had long conversations. I have thankfully avoided having to participate in those conversations.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Happy birthday, dcp!
Well, fuck, I signed Matilda up for a new round of Pilates classes and got her out of bed and sent her there. And they said, "No, you start next week."
It's so freakin' hard getting anything started with her. Not that this is her fault - it was a miscommunication between me and the staff.
Anyway, Scola and I will be off to see The Phoenician Scheme this afternoon and have lunch in Japantown.
Did you all notice that it's June? We're almost halfway through 2025.
