Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Good luck, Dana!

My niece got caught by the Google Earth camera!

I had a really good parking spot the day it drove by my place.

I could really use a long weekend.

Sparky, allow me to pimp the Bryant Park Hotel literally across the street from the main branch of the NY Public Library.

I suspect I'm not cool enough to stay there.

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

Woo, Dana!

No more long weekends for me for a while. Alas. I could ALWAYS use one.

I also have a headache. I don't think migraine, but maybe, I am getting some weird vision things with it. Took some Tylenol, but it's still here. I think I will try to get through the rest of the work day, though, there isn't much more of it. Maybe take some ibuprofin.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I took the meth sudafed for pounding sinuses, but the pressure in my right ear is telling me to go take some migrane meds before things get out of hand.

And then maybe a nap, because I'm finished with work for the day.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I suspect I'm not cool enough to stay there.

I've stayed there (fashion week, no less) and nope. Few of us are. But they don't side-eye you about it. I'd stay there again for sure.

It's in my favorite bit of Manhattan architecture, the former American Radiator Building. [link] [link]

Wow, I'd rather stay somewhere that I could see it from. The library's across the street, you say?

Yes, in the middle of Bryant Park.

The status is NOT quo.

ND and I stayed at the Library once many years ago. Such a cool hotel!

Riding through Haight-Ashbury (waved in your direction Hec and JZ! But it was a v quick trip) I wondered...hippies and hitchhiking and all that seems so insane to me. Like, who would do that? But then I wondered if in 30 years people will be like "omg in the day you got in an Uber with just any old driver???"
