It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

meara,

too late for you now, but here is what I travel with which is good for at least 2-5 days depending on how I pack and the weather.

the above is a great carryon, stable wheels and does handle a lot.

In addition, my "purse" is [link] in small. It holds my laptop, wallet, key cords, a book or two, key papers, etc.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Bring ita meds and food, ER!

I got up and functional at 7 like a normal person, so I guess we're meeting in the middle today?

Hey, how come people use wheeled carryons instead of backpacks? I find my backpack is much easier to wrangle, even having to bear its full weight. Mine is the backpack version of this which appears to be not made anymore, more's the pity. But it's great, fits the bin easily, and holds my laptop and enough clothes for me for any length of trip. But I'm not wearing businesswear and I'm willing to wash things in the sink.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am going to try to find the new location of my comic book store. Other than that, quiet day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like the wheeled bags for shlepping -- backpacks are a PITA on the subway. Although I have recently learned that the four swiveling wheels kind is also kind of terrible on the bus -- you have to keep it from rolling.

I'm trying to throw away old Playbills, but it is Very Hard! I guess I could keep just the front covers, huh.

Except, seriously, I saw Catherine Keener, Ty Burrell, Dallas Roberts, and Edward Norton in Burn This???

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I had an upsetting dream about me being irresponsible with somebody else's dog -- I was letting it sit on my lap while I rode my motorcycle? -- and they were berating me about it afterward while I tried to apologize.

I'm still a little upset over it, especially because I don't have a motorcycle.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Maybe you could scan the interesting bits, Jesse?

I don't have a scanner here, but realize that front page + cast list is really plenty.

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

I know they feel like it's their duty, but upon discovering me, every new nurse does not have to have the "narcotics isn't a cure" conversation. Should I have that note added to my files as well? Or just rest assured that most of then won't read to the part where I'm trying to get treatment at UCSF with a new infusion. Because that is in there. Perhaps they need it spelt out that coping means I can pay the bills, including the ones for random treatments.

Thank dog she's my second nurse, not the first. Still, doesn't bode well for continued gentleness of care. She's started out on a frosty foot.

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