Our wings are not tired

All four of my golf carts are currently on the Universal Studios Backlot. Living and working in LA is weird.

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

So different from my golf cart less life!

Our wings are not tired.

Many of my neighbors have golf carts and they are the thing to drive in town in Florida. I just refer to my car as a overly powerful and fast golf cart.

Accurate tho, right!? Ha!

It does pin down a moment in time.

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

Timelies all!

Back to work today. Of course, my supervisor is out. Still, it wasn't as bad as some Wednesdays we've had.

Gary and I were chosen at random for COVID testing when we crossed into Canada Friday.(It ended up being a complicated thing to get the test submitted.) Got the results today, which seems a bit inefficient. Oh well...(it was negative)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I drove the beer golf cart when Heart did our annual golf tourney (for Heart). Man, I've never been so welcomely received!

Aw, these golf cart stories are great! I had no idea.

I ended up getting the peach based seasonal cocktail followed by a flight of sangrias (that I expected to be sample sized but were not) and then that glass of wine because my judgment was all shot to hell by then anyway. All pretty tasty although I am not used to sangria including vodka or rum or whatever. Anyway, lying down now.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

I did that when I worked at the snack bar at the country club -- we'd take turns driving the beer golf cart, and those golfers were always so damn happy to see us.

I also had a seasonal peach based cocktail tonight!

Today was Matilda's first day of school which let's out at 1:30 on Wednesdays. I called at 3:30 to see where she was: "I'm cleaning our Mr. Sunada's desk! I'm busy right now."

Mr. Sunada is (a) one of her favorite teachers; (b) a PE teacher; (c) not one of her teachers this year.

I think she's happy to be back amongst her school people.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Well, the semester hasn't even started yet, and one of my colleagues already has Covid, so this seems like it's going to go great. I am so not ready for this semester to begin.
