What's been happening with me? Well, earlier this month I had knee replacement for my left knee (YES I'M OLD). I had to use a walker, and I've graduated to a cane. It's been three weeks and I'm basically housebound. My husband has been taking care of me, but he's a bit overprotective. Today I went for a walk by myself for the first time.

We went to the Museum of Modern Art today. Museums are the only places to go where you can be around other people! We were looking at part of the permanent collection.

My brother and his family are touring France.  My sister and her family are touring Italy.  My stomach is churning with envy. We can’t afford it. And we’re going to Dallas in JULY for a goddamned convention.  Shit shit shit.

To make matters worse, we have a guy who's going to the convention staying with us for the weekend for a mini-convention on ( Read more... )
