Best quote from my son's birthday dinner with my ex on her porch: "I have twenty months to quadruple my income." Well, Ex, I sincerely hope you succeed. I did not mention, however, that surely I will have helped her pay down her $100K mortgage - so small because she kept our former house in the divorce settlement - over six years of $48K in annual alimony payments.
The best part of dinner was the ice cream afterward. The Wendling insisted on cookies & cream, which I love, and which Ex hates. Nyeh heh heh heh!
Shallow Fashion Details: black sleeveless New Look-inspired dress from Pinup Girl with a rose & spider web print; petticoat, of cours; black leather fedora; black Rohesia belt and Truth Alison shoes, both from Fluevog; silver jewelry. 'Nuther words, I dressed to at least maim my ex.
Last night would have been the Trans Pride< march & rally were it not for COVID-FUCKING-19. I help staff the Lambert House table at these events, but since there's no event, everything was moved online. I was there with B, the Lambert House volunteer manager, mostly shooting the breeze. In two hours we talked to all of one person for about twenty minutes. Le sigh. It was sad, but I can say we did our best.
Funny Lady, I've learned, doesn't like doing video calls, which is one reason why she wanted to do a social distance picnic in her back yard. (The other reason is that she wants to show of her newly acquired breadmaking skills.) Well, the climate that Seattle is notorious for put the kibosh on that. I've mentioned here before how hard FL is to schedule. It may take us another three months to try again.
All I can say is that the Tickler better not bail on me this evening. More Shallow Fashion Details: my black & white checker bodycon dress from Pride Eve of two years ago. Yes, I went on a date with her that night, but I'm pretty sure she's OK with that. Fluevog Francesca boots because it's not warm. Pride rainbow accessories, including the necklace she gave me.
Oh, speaking of Pride: have a bunch of mixes from queer DJs on KEXP. Must... not... make a joke about 1000 homo DJs!
