MEANWHILE BACK AT CASA CRAZY
So it turns out that Anna, the visitor from Germany that D.S. dropped in our laps is really lovely. Consensus among the housemates can be summed up by what Jules said, "She's nice. Can we keep her and dump the other one?"
MY CAT IS FAT
And, LiLi, oh cat of many names, did not look pleased when I added, Fatticus Catticus to the list today. I told her if she doesn't watch it, the next one could be Rotunda.
OUT AND ABOUT
Ah East Oakland, where the panhandlers at the gas station not only want to pump your gas, they try to sell you supersized bottles of lotion complete with handy pump, possibly only gently used. (I didn't ask for details.)
And when you decline they still tell you "you know, you is a bootiful lady? Are you married? Well see you around here at the Arco station. "
This is a quote. Can't make this stuff up!

HOME NOT SAFE HOME AGAIN
No. No. No. No. No!
I had decided that this was NOT going to be a night of uncomfortable, unpleasant bad vibey stuff.
Just parked and the volume & bass of the Weds night streaming " Absolute Worst of Burning Man" noise fest, which takes place in our basement at the back end of the house, is so loud I can hear it across the street with the windows rolled up!
To make things more interesting, my landlady is on the front porch talking to the "house guest." Since I am trying to avoid confrontation, I need to wait until she goes back to the basement before I go in.
(And I need to pee) Who would be the god you pray to for bladder control? Oy!

OH WHAT A RELIEF IT IS!
MADE IT INSIDE!
Adventures in packing! I got some cool inexpensive boxes at IKEA with inserts that will serve as little cubbies to store my altar stuff, like crystals and little bells safely!
But I struck out at Ross. First time I have ever been there when they did not have space bags! They are so expensive everywhere else! I was hoping to squeeze down bulky items like costumes and winter coats! I guess the hunt will continue.

OH NO SHE DIDN'T!
*shakes head. Rubs ears. Wishes some things could be unseen/unheard.*
Avril Levigne, what has happened to you? What's gone wrong? I see you are approaching 30. Are you having a crisis of cool? Trying to reclaim your teens?
Your "Rock n Roll" video was atrocious enough but this, "Hello Kitty" video offends the eyes AND the ears. Aside from the overzealous processing that has completely removed anything human from your voice, your Japanese is horrid, the song sounds horrible! And is that a Skrillex rip off?
How you could possibly think it would be cool for a white woman to act like a giggly Japanese girl bouncing around and clapping her hands and.....oh..I'm just not even going to bother any more. Hopefully, you'll get a grip and figure out how to do something brilliant and musical in the next few years because this shit is going to become increasingly embarrassing!

A NOTE FROM FUTURE LORELEI....
Dear Lorelei,
Oh, just you wait until 2018 when Taylor Swift decides to murder Earth Wind and Fire's, September .
Nothing will prepare you for this. I don't know why I am trying.
-Future You
