It's been unpleasantly overcast and cold for the last few weeks, and I'm ready for it to be over.
I'm not asking for the moon, San Francisco, but some 70 degree temps in June would be nice. (This is all compounded by my heater not working so it's 53 and brisk inside my house.)
One of Matilda's friends called me and her at 2am in the morning because she was having a panic attack and her parents were away. So she got let in, and Matilda helped her regulate and she slept in the Garden Apartment.
You know what parents fuckin' hate? 2am calls related to teenager crisis.
I had to get Matilda up at 6:45am this morning because the couple who use her as a babysitter needed her to take one of their kids to camp this morning. So that's an Uber ride from our house, a Waymo ride with kid from their house, and an Uber ride home by 9:30. (They're paying for the Ubers and Waymos, of course, plus paying for her time.)
She's got a busy day for a change with the morning babysitting, and Pilates later and therapy after that. And she's been diligently following up on the series of medical appointments and will see an ENT soon to check out her deviated septum issues.
Calli, your community garden sounds delightful! Bob got a plot in a community garden near here a few years ago but the place was run by a tyrant. It really put him off gardening.
I somehow feel worse today and am mad about it. I slept for like 12 hours and it didn’t help. I do have an appetite at least! And ordered very good Chinese last night and have leftovers including hot and sour soup so I hope that cures it
My massage therapist cancelled today's appointment because she feels like she's coming down with a cold or something. And while my quad muscle could have used the pummeling, I appreciate that she doesn't want to spread the plague. And I can reschedule for next week, so no big deal.

Boo! Here's hoping the hot and sour soup is magic today
I am having lunch related decision paralysis. Do I want a pastrami sandwich or dim sum? I feel like it's amazing I got to the point of only considering two options but I'm stuck there
Do I want a pastrami sandwich or dim sum?
Those are both fine options but I'd probably opt for the Pastrami sandwich if I was really hungry.
Ooh pastrami sandwich sounds nice. I need to go grocery shopping.
The community garden sounds so nice! We have them here called “P-patches” which I always thought was pea patches but I googled and it’s named after a family whose name started with P!
That's a nice sort of immortality (or longevity or whatever)
There are a lot of recent/potential technological developments that I'm not necessarily totally happy about, but paying for chips and soda out of the vending machine with my watch still gives me a little thrill. Douglas Adams was absolutely talking about me
OK, I got a little distracted by the footage of my senator getting manhandled and handcuffed, but, um, have pastrami sandwich now and it is indeed good
