Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We sang a lot in the car! And also read. And played games.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I get carsick if I read in cars. It's one of my superpowers. Also if I sit backwards. The 12 hour rides through TX and NM when we were kids were SO MUCH FUN WITH ME.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Me too. In fact all us siblings tended to get carsick. And if someone threw up in the car, that side of the car became the "vomit side", leading to all sorts of arguments over who had to sit on the vomit side. Eventually, someone would throw up on the other side, so that side became the vomit side. And the cycle of vomit would continue....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
It's Friday!
What are people doing this weekend? Hopefully not getting car sick.

Yeah, I can't read in cars, but we played lots of games including the license plate game, Beetle, and bossy (which involved counting cows). Of course, my sister with her 40/20 vision always crushed us in Beetle. On our Vermont trips my Dad would make a cave amongst all the stuff in the back of the station wagon for my brother and I to play in. I remember that involved a lot of peace signs directed at other cars.

Weekend: Movie and pedicure this afternoon. Market Saturday AM, pre-wedding get together Saturday evening. Sunday is friend's wedding.
I am dreading the wedding stuff a little because my former best friend will be there. We haven't spoken since 2004, and I dread seeing her. It will be a small wedding, so it will be hard to avoid. Maybe I'll just hang around with her ex?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I have a going away party tonight for a friend who is moving to Houston, and then Saturday, I have a friend from Lake Charles who lives in Houston coming up to visit friends of his, and I think we will grab dinner and drinks Saturday night. Sunday. Sleep all day?
In the meantime I'm hoping my cousin's surgery goes well. She was trying to explain it on the phone with me this morning. They are sewing her eyelid to the bone of her eyesocket. No general anesthesia either! It's local and then some sort of cocktail to make her sleep. The nurse said "If you wake up, you can just tell them to put you back under." K said, "If I wake up and there is a scalple anywhere near my eyeball, I WILL FLIP THE FUCK OUT!"

Tomorrow, I am hitting the Street Food Fair, seeing Much Ado in Dolores Park (thanks for the info, juliana!), seeing Mary Robinette Kowal at SF in SF, and and seeing an improv show. Sunday, I am helping a friend move and seeing Gilligan's Island Live. Anyone interested in that last one? They have two-for-one tickets.
