I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Phew, that's a lot. Can you put off the mammogram for a week or two?

Mostly I just want to get it scheduled. I can schedule it for a couple-few weeks out. Same with the colonoscopy.

She would just announce it with flat finality: "I am an anxious little dude."

That's super accurate for me. One uber-anxious little dude.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

All the hugs in the world to (((Steph))).

Today was the nicest day of the summer we’ve had in NYC. I went and shot 2 rolls of film. 14K steps.

Also, this happened up the street from me this morning (no one was hurt).

Our wings are not tired.

Here's my onerous to-do list for this week that I'm posting here for accountability:

That is quite a lot of adulting there. Get 'er done ~ma.

Yay for beautiful summer days! And yikes on the linky!! You have to wonder how many structures are unstable.

My son is all moved in. He shaved his very long beard into just a bit of short stash and goatee. It looks nice. His hair is longer than mine, not to mention thicker and prettier. Now we need to find something affordable for him in Florida. Not an easy task. Everything I find is a room in someone's house. We have three months to figure it out, but October isn't the best time to find something when everyone is heading south.

In a blast from the past Buffista birthday news, today is Deena's birthday. We sat next to each other on the plane ride from Chicago to San Francisco on the way to a F2F. It was so delightful to have that one-on-one time. I haven't seen any sign of her in quite some time and hope that she is well.
