A sort of update thingy.

[gridlore]

• We didn't go to see Tosca Friday night. Lingering illness on my part, and the snafu with Kiri's unemployment paperwork meant that making the trip was an expense we could do without. Bit of a bummer, because from what I've heard watching opera on the big screen at AT&T is a blast.


• Maybe next year.


• The viral infection is gone (thank Halford) but a cold bug moved in to replace it.


• June in California. Rain, occasional thunderstorms, cold winds.


• Wait, June where? This is not normal. Not complaining about getting any rain we can get, but I'd like my nice NorCal summer, please.


• We're less than two months to the Montreal trip.


• Time to panic, yes?


• But we do have cool new luggage, chosen by Kirsten.


• Which means they're purple, natch.


• Giants are doing well. Alas, the Dodgers are doing better.


• I have discovered a new, special kind of Hell. Wearing dentures with a cold sore.


• Finished Robert Swayer's latest: WWW: Wake. This is your Hugo winner for Best Novel next year. Read it.


• Seekrit message to calculass: Can't wait for the next book!


• I must do some laundry today. Two loads, at least.


• Another cloudy, miserable day. I want my summer!

We're getting the same summer up here in Portland, which is not normal.

I've seen more rain in June than we did in April. Hey June! This is the dry season! Sunny days, blue skies, all the stuff we don't tell the tourists about, hello?

Re purple luggage

Doug, for all the flights I've taken in the last year be THANKFUL for purple luggage. In a sea of navy blue and black, your beautiful PURPLE will stand out wonderfully well. Wait, why am I telling you that! LOL I remember where you BOTH used to work. ;)
