Got picked up by @ludibriumventis.bsky.social to go to the airport- make 2 bohemian rhapsody references, and then it comes on. This will be a good trip.

I got up at 3:30am to take a friend to the airport, and now I feel weird because I've passed through that liminal time barrier between "stupid late" to "stupid early", as well as that liminal space that is The Airport... yet The Day has not yet even started.

I saw a video about Viking's Great Lakes cruises, and (as someone who grew up on one of the aforementioned lakes) I have to say... I would 100% go on one of these if I could actually afford it.

I did some more gardening - got even more tomatoes (and left a lot of them for another day), as well as cleared the stuff growing from the cracks in the front walk (and cursing the person who "fixed" the old pavement by simply spreading a thin layer of new cement over top of it...)

I've got another load of grape tomatoes in the dehydrator, and another pot of assorted tomatoes stewing on the stove, to eventually become bouillon. There are still tomatoes outside... #TheTomatoing

I took a long walk in the park while I worked on my scene for tomorrow's class, and found some magic and whimsy along the way. #NaturePhotography #ECK #FungusAmongUs
Several delicate, translucent white mushrooms stand up out of some grass and clover, their caps pointing upward like tiny bowls or inverted umbrellas A large tree trunk twists all the way around, as if wringing itself outA hawthorn trunk bristles with clusters of large sharp thorns Several teeny tiny mushrooms, each with a white cap with a dark dot in the center, sprout amongst the clover.  Each cap is about the size of one clover leaf.

I signed up for acting classes, and had my first one, this morning, where I did a cold read (with a scene partner) that included my character slapping his. Right before that happened, my reading glasses broke in my hand. Before I could reenact that Twilight Zone episode, someone lent me theirs!*

Call your doctor or health department today.

While I enjoyed Street Fest, all that time sitting in the muggy heat with absolutely ZERO air movement (seriously, not a single leaf was stirring for a good few hours) has led my immune system to give me a big ol', "Fuck you, all the joints and soft tissues shall hurt!"

Random thought: How gross was NYC after the StayPuft man exploded? I worked at summer camp. Melted marshmallow is REALLY HARD to clean up. It had to be sticky for WEEKS, like Boston after the molasses flood. Imagine so much garbage and bugs and rats and other stuff stuck in the goo...
A scene from the climax of Ghostbusters, when hundreds of gallons of melted marshmallow goo have just PLOPPED down on a man and the Ghostbusters' car and the street and the sidewalk and the bushes and... everything!  Everything is covered in white goo!  And more bits of white goo are still falling from the sky!
