Puppy! So naughty!
I just spent yesterday and today at the house with a rental car and now I know I can make the drive. I am so glad my mother got rid of my grandma and grandpas things, so the only things left that I am attached to are the things I asked her to keep, and a couple of pieces of furniture. And like, the actual house! Most of my mom’s stuff is things I bought her and like 10 canisters of coffee, 10 cartons of cigarettes 10, 000 underpants. Etc.
I think the worst ongoing expense will be taxes. There is school, village, town and county! Her electric is low but she alders buys heating oil and propane for the dryer and stove. I will not need her cable package. If my rent ever goes up to
market value right now, this would be less.
Super quiet day! I've been working on computer stuff al day so really should give my eyes a break.
Anyone do anything fun over the holiday weekend?
Timelies all!
Gary and I went to Balticon last weekend. Other than me tripping over my suitcase Friday night and scraping my right knee and right elbow, it was fun. It's kinda funny/strange that the current crisis, while worse than what has happened before, allowed Gary to attend the whole con. Sigh..

Matilda is home now and we started watching Hacks together.
Last Thursday I attended my friend Jes' drag show at Booksmith. That's always fun.
I'm shopping for a flat/condo for Emmett and his gf and this one is cute and in the right price range so I've requested a tour with them tomorrow: [link]
Feel free to Le Gasp at SF prices but they're actually about to soar upwards after the mega IPOs coming out soon by OpenAI and Anthropic.
I love the kitchen cabinet color in that flat, Hec!

I spent Memorial Day at my sister’s marina with her boater buddies. It was fun. Sunny, upper 70s with a breeze, plenty of food and drink. I’d kinda like to sneak something a little more adventurous into their rotation of bland 70s and 80s pop music, but since I’m getting free brats and shots, that seems a little churlish. Once I’m contributing a bit more, maybe I’ll introduce them to the wonders of Tom Waits.

I sent the link to Emmett and Kalena and Kalena said she'd just been looking at that listing.
Just talked to the real estate agent and we're trying to get a tour tomorrow afternoon.
My friends were in town from Wednesday-today, so I spent a lot of wonderful time with them, watching TV and movies, with a two-day break in the middle to go to my MIL's funeral. So it's been an interesting week.
That place is super cute, Hec.

I tried to tempt my cousin with this one, but I couldn't get him interested.: [link]
