The party was awesome. Everyone has mellowed. I reconnected with a friend who also had moved away, right after I did, and I had not seen her for almost 45 years! She lives in LA, but has had a life eerily similar to mine, including moving back to NY for a few years, so her kids could have the same environment growing up, as she did (which is almost the same thing I said to her about my choices).
The drama that I thought was happening, was true. A FB romance developing between my ex-bf and another person who also moved away. He's recently separated after a long marriage; see, these things can even happen when you are 60!

Very cool Crankin. Glad you had a good time.

Should I go missing, it's because my Chloe dog has killed me in my sleep. She developed a flea reaction (after 15 years of no issues!) and got a big hot spot on her side. To keep her from scratching herself bloody, I bought her a tshirt at Target. I cut the sleeves off, and removed the neck binding to make it more comfy...somehow I doubt she appreciates it.

...somehow I doubt she appreciates it.

Maybe if you gave her a say in the design? I hear she's partial to Honey Badgers.

At least you didn't get Barbie or My Lil Pony or girlie dreck like that. We'd be sending out a search party by now.

Please, don't walk into a bike shop, pick out a pair of super-expensive shoes, then demand that the employees pick out the "best possible pedal" (for less than $100!) because you're spending sooo much money on these shoes, then demand that said employees affirm that the shoes that you are buying are in fact awesome.

I have a sunburn on my left arm. Totally avoidable and I am pissed at myself. Had a perfectly sunburn free ride and then went to eat, after rinsing off and changing. I rinsed the sunblock off, I guess. As we sat down at the outdoor table, I said, "I'm going to get a sunburn," and I did.
It doesn't hurt, but looks like I'm a dumb azz. Been putting Arnica on it, hoping to tame the redness.

Great! Two bomb scares in less than 24 hours--one where I work and one where I park. The first one turned out to be a backpack filled with fireworks and pot left on front steps of the federal courthouse. I'm unsure of the details of the second one other than that it was a suspicious device that a guard detected in a bag going through security at the federal building.
