Now I'm doing the dance of "Do I fly into San Francisco or San Jose?" Augh. Why so awkward to get to, Mother Ship?

I think the type of chemo might affect how things taste, too. Mom was on cisplatin for her ovarian cancer, I believe. One of the platinum-based chemos, anyway. And she said that everything tasted metallic. I think Dad was on something different for his lymphoma, and things didn't taste metallic to him as much as the texture suddenly became much more of an issue.

San Jose

San Jose, as long as the flights aren't too inconvenient/expensive. Smaller, and closer to MV.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So, I just heard the term "elephant walk" for the first time. Well, this definition, anyway. Is the hazing-related walk a real thing? Frequent enough to be cited as such? Or just an urban legend to trash talk frats?

Do I want to know how this came up in conversation?

What does "elephant walk" mean, in hip urban parlance?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I only know it as the name of a Cambodian restaurant.

I had to google it

I had to google it

Just did. Am baffled at the things people get up to and find names for.

edit: Note to self. Don't click on ita's links, don't Google odd things she discovers. Clearly only ita is tough enough for the things in her head.
