I forgot to go vote in tbr primaries yesterday. M was like...we need to go sooner rather than later and I felt like crap so put it off and realized around 8 we hadn't gone.

And I didnt sleep well last night because I had more intense , distressing dreams and smoke up not feeling very rested.

Bummer, askye. I hope you feel better soon and that the primaries went ok (not going to try to check the news to find out myself...)

Finally caught up on Midnight Burger. Caspar making me want to cry while I'm driving, that's hardly fair. Y'all didn't mention Ava singing Tom Lehrer, always a treat. I feel like there were more, like, musical interludes of various kinds in this episode? Cannot wait for the next one, but also desperate to know what's going on with the Horizon crew (really appreciated the "I'm sure Leif will show up eventually" I am paraphrasing from the previouslies...)

Today is a nostalgic anniversary of the B.org big move to new server 2003. So much work done by ita and others to create this space. So very grateful.

Many thinks to all of our coding creators. Built by ita, updated by Gud. I know DXM did a lot of archival stuff. Lots of people put work into the design (Jon B., Michelle Tepper...).

It is a pleasure to rest my eyes on our home site. So clean and legible and unlike the clickbaity, scrolling, hurlyburly the interpipes have devolved into.

Speaking of which, how goes the funding for the Board?

I still use the Amazon link for all the stuff I get there so I hope that the % is going to us.

Has anyone here tried Anthropium, [link] ? You are presented with 10 artifacts from around the world and have to guess when and where they’re from. You get a wordle-like row of colored squares to share your results.

Timelies all!

Nothing much to report on the Mr. S front, other than getting to visit with him on Sunday.

In other news, I have developed something rash-like on my forearms. Just my forearms. I have no clue why. It's not like I've exposed them to something that none of the rest of my body was exposed to.

In random Fort Lauderdale news, this is apparently a record-breaking turtle nesting season. When I went over to the beach last night, I noticed bunches of cordoned off nests, so I checked this morning and found that they have roped off over 400 nests as of last week. Just from the spot I had planted myself I could see probably a dozen. Yay Turtles!

Apparently that applies here too because Gordie was trying to get to a snapper who had climbed up from the creek into the yard.

Fortunately she was on the other side of the no-Gordies-in-the-creek fence and we were able to gently convince her to make better life choices with the aid of a kayak paddle. (I said gently!)

Last night's Knicks v Spurs game was total insanity. I'm not invested in either team, but that was wild. I always watch on delay, so I zoomed through all the commercials and time-outs, which made for an even more intense roller coaster.

That was *exactly* like watching the Mets’ World Series game 6 in 1986.

So I went to a Belle and Sebastian concert last night. (Great! I got to dance on stage at the end.)

Came home, winding down after midnight and I get a panicked call from Matilda. She's passed out at a horror movie, whacking her head on the way down and cutting her scalp.

I get her boyfriend to Uber her home and he's like, "I think she needs to go to the ER."

And I'm like, "I'm not taking her to an ER in San Francisco after midnight unless she's got a geyser of brains shooting out of her head."

(Yes, I still have some PTSD from taking JZ to the ER and not being able to get past the waiting room for hours while she was in terrible pain, and then her being on a gurney in the hallway for three nights.)

So I immediately made an appointment for Urgent Care first thing. Cleaned out the wound, cut a bandage to size, and wrapped it with one of her terrycloth hair bands she uses to keep her hair out of her face while she's doing skincare.

And now we're going to Uber over to Urgent Care in a few minutes to get her stitched up.

It's just a shallow gash but it's about 2 inches long.
