A sort of update thingy.


  • 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 [livejournal.com profile] 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!

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. ;)
