There are a few facts which cannot be denied. One of these is that my people looooonnnggg ago couldn’t handle the heat in Africa, so they moved north. So why do I live in this heaty-place….
A meeting was planned for Cameron Park Lake at 11. I thought it would be a terrific idea to drive Lizzie there so after our walk I could boil some water in my teakettle and we could have hot tea. Please note the above paragraph. It was so damn hot…if I had shorts I would have worn them, but alas. It was a good talk – as if no time at all had passed (of course). That’s how things go when you know the right people.
A wonderful agreement reached in this talk was that we will marry each other since the whole man thing isn’t exactly working out. I share how Maggie had, long ago, in younger more innocent years suggested I become a lesbian to increase my chances. If only it were as simple as making a decision, but yes, I see her point. So my friend and I decided when in Rome…. It was when I was enthusiastically opening the door to the bus to make pop up the top that I rolled the damn thing off its tracks. L said he’d help me try to pop it on again, but…
Luna died. The little feral cat that I sat with at night when we moved up here passed away under L’s truck a couple of days. L was heartbroken and when he dropped Ethan off, there were tears. That took me for a loop because the only other time I saw him cry was when his dad died.
Ethan made me lol today. Maggie had texted me earlier, an OMG! YOU’LL NEVER GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED!! I thought a boy she liked has asked her out, but no, a friend had a spare ticket to a con (which is the hip word for “convention” I just learned as I looked it up) in SF. We texted back and forth a bit, then I got busy backing the bus out of the garage. When I went back to get my phone, I saw Ethan (we intercept each other’s texts) had responded as me letting know that she couldn’t go to the con and had to clean the house instead with Ethan. It was hilarious seeing Ethan up to no good.
Picture: Me after I left the gym. I swam a bit (the water is so amazing, but I am so out of shape), then steam bath and dry sauna; Mabi jumping. Yes, the iPhone has a really poor camera.
