Packing! I leave for Chicago in 9 hours and Machester in 23 hours.
The Mamas & the Papas- California Dreamin’
“One night the threesome heard about a new drug, LSD, so they each took a tablet. Michelle was complaining that nothing was happening. Then there was a knock at the door, and as Michelle was opening the door, she came on to the acid. There was Cass, in a pink angora sweater, a little white pleaded mini-skirt, matching gogo boots, fake lashes, and her hair in a flip. John said, ‘She looked like a giant mushroom.’ So they all experienced their first acid trip together, and from then on became inseparable.”- The History of The Mamas & the Papas.

Mildly terrified of a country the size of Louisiana. I have my sister’s birthday brunch today, then shopping for last minute additions before I leave, and packing. Plane leaves at 7:45 Sunday morning.
“I am the proud bearer of a literary tattoo myself, as shown in the enclosed image – that’s the VFD logo from A Series of Unfortunate Events by the inimitably fictitious Lemony Snicket . In the style of Mr. Snicket, I can only say that the story behind this tattoo involves a concrete cave, a very rude girl, the Floridian Sister Act of 1984, and a specially-modified seat in Rows 4 and 6 of a particular amusement thrill ride.”
Love this. Even though ASOFE isn’t the greatest read, at times I’ve thought about getting the eye or the saying “The world is quiet here.”
