I was on a cruise last night with a bunch of librarians who specialize in European languages and a bunch of representatives of foreign presses (so, nice people, but not exactly young or hip) and the outgoing chair of the group ended his speech by noting it was his 8th anniversary with his supportive husband, whom he married at ALA in Toronto, and he got a huge round of applause. So nice. (Although, who gets married at a library conference? That is dorkier than I could have even thought up on my own.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Happy birthday, JZ!

Happy birthday JZ!
Matilda looks so adorable.
An hour gardening in the sun yesterday led to a migraine. I tried to fight it all day, but it didn't really leave until I got some sleep. I am a sun lightweight. I blame my ancestors for living deep in a cave.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Love Matilda's outfit!
meara, I didn't even go to any Pride events this weekend, but I totally remember that feeling. Also, in NC, with a side of "where the fuck do you people hide the rest of the year?"
flea just left, so I'm going back to bed. I was out stupid late last night.

I just realized that I thought Tucker Carlson and Carson Daly were the same person. I have a lot of trouble with sound-alike names (I am always getting Henry James and James Joyce mixed up).
OK, my boss quitting (and having no motivation to work) is making me have even less motivation to work that usual. This is not good. And I have reached the end of the internet.

Punishingly Intricate
Happy bday, JZ!
I left my coffee travel mug at work on Friday so I stopped at DD to get iced coffee. cream no sugar. He put sugar in it but I tasted before I left the shop and asked for a redo. I think he just dumped it and there was still a ton of sugar left in the bottom of the cup because, bleh, is still too sweet!
Despite that my goal for the week is limited complaining.
