Of activity. Of snow. Of idiotic executive orders. I am not ignoring what's going on in my country right now, but I don't think this post is where I'm gonna talk about it. Anyway, a lot going on and I had to make a list because I'm a little behind. The Savoynet shows are cast! …
Harry the Homo-ner strikes again!
Over the last week or so, I hit a breaking point with little stupid things around the apartment that needed to be dealt with, but I was ignoring. "No one's going to do it, but you", I glared at my reflection. The latest thing was that yet another under-counter light in the kitchen went dead. …
Anniversaries, Gypsy, Jean-Georges
So, Monday the 13th was the 30th anniversary of the day I met Charles. Or, as I've sometimes put it over the years, "I woke up still unenlightened. But by bedtime, I'd found out there was a Charles Keiser in the world." It was and probably will be always the best thing that's ever happened …
Stereophonic, Los Angeles Plays Itself
So, yeah, first things first. Those of you who were tracking my trip updates last month might have noticed that, until today, I did not mention that my dad had injured himself 4 days in, and that put the whole trip in jeopardy. I, of course, had always had worries in the back of my …
Happy New Year!
Just a quickie-post to get caught up, as I now need to dive into the posts about the trip. I think I've learned how to backdate posts, let's see if that's true. I have loved being home and having almost nothing on the schedule. Getting caught up on TV, but mostly on paperwork (and laundry). …
2024 Wrapup
This was an interesting year, and 2025 looks to be more interesting still. I don't have much to say about the presidential election that others haven't already said, except that I am hoping that Trump's and the Republicans' ineptitude have them tripping over their own feet rather than implementing one horror after another. Oh, I …
There and Back Again
I've been out of town since the 8th, with no time to blog. Grateful to get back to my lovely home last night in time to order a pizza, watch Elsbeth and Red One, and go to bed early. Today will be about a cemetery visit and phone calls to family and friends, mostly. I'm …
West Coast Road Trip, Day 14: Reno/DFW/RDU
Dad and I both woke up in the middle of the night. He was uncomfortable because his hand had swollen up. Not so much painful, but I guess noticeable. It really looked swollen. I'm like, "oh, shit". We were so close to getting this man home and in the care of his doctors. What if …
West Coast Road Trip, Day 13: SF to Reno
Off to Reno today for our last stop of seven. As we'd been planning this, it hadn't occurred to me to worry about this, but more than one person had said, "driving through the mountains in December? Beware of snow!" This journey included the Donner pass, after all. But I'd been checking the weather and …
West Coast Road Trip, Day 12: San Francisco
Dad and I both had trouble sleeping and got up around 5:30 am. No big deal but we didn’t have a flexible schedule. One nice thing about our San Francisco hotel room was it has a little sitting area where Dad and I could both sit and read or surf the internet. We had coffee, hung …
