I loved your Greyhound story. But I mean, come on, what did you expect when you bought a ticket for $75 at a hardware store? Or a Dairy Queen, depending on how hot it is (or how cold it is, since we're already entering some absurd realm)? Look, if you ever need help paying for more convenient (albeit only slightly less terrifying when it comes to fellow passengers) transportation, let me know. I'll buy you a plane ticket, no problem.

Well, one problem: it probably won't be for your intended destination. Inadvertently flying to South Carolina is probably just as bad as riding a Greyhound bus.

I hope you're feeling better, hon, and not still stuck juggling hives and bronchitis. And the hives don't look that bad, but still.

They would do the same for me.
And, as I have been known to say, "No choice makes an excellent motivator."

No problem. And I hope you feel better soon.

Don't get well soon. Get well right now, damnit!

Just keep pushing through the hard times. That's what I do. That, and I break some faces.

Everyone feels that way de temps en temps. Try to bear in mind it's only temporary.

*hugs*

SO beautiful. Birthday weekend sounds like something to look forward to and as you know, your companion, is one of the people I adore around here so thumbs up on having a great time.

I'm glad to see you're still quite photogenic

I should have gotten myself a birthday present! I'll have to remember to do that next year.

I didn't think anyone remembered China Beach...

Thank you.

You should tell more stories. You have a bit of magic to your telling.

Wow! That looks great. You guys are going to have so much fun.

It was a good show! had fun in the rain and mud
That festival you are going to looks awesome! Tool! yay
Hope you have a great time at it!

Also, good job at work.

Well, this was my first time! I went with a buddy in my lab here who's very into fishing of all sort - I did it a lot as a kid but have lost track of my small tacklebox, don't own a rod yet, etc. I was like "trout? I've never used a fly rod." We used bobbers and worms... and it worked great. I couldn't believe it. We each caught 3 or 4 over the course of a few hours, not exactly going crazy but certainly enough to make it fun. The stream we were on wouldn't have allowed flies anyway, which also meant it doesn't get too much fishin' pressure.

Fun, I didn't know you fished!

Thank you for posting this.

I finally went to the store and now there is food in my house. I was too hungry this morning to do anything more creative than cereal though!

Hiya.

Just checking in. ♥

Hey, I might actually be around then.

Excellent. There are some kick-ass places in the city...
