OK, let me get the bad stuff out of the way first.
Bad: Didn't quite beat the rain on my bike ride this morning.
Bad: My bathroom sink is still blocked, despite plenty of plunging and repeated applications of sodium hydroxide crystals. The tub isn't in very good shape, either.
Bad: I missed electrolysis today because I spent two and one quarter hours on I-5 just getting from one end of Seattle to the other. (Ms. Zappy's place of business is about halfway between Seattle and Tacoma.) I took the opportunity to perform an experiment: I plucked as many of my hairs as I could get a firm grasp on, which was a minority. We'll see how well they stay plucked.
Now the good stuff!
Good: There are three new light rail stations that opened in Seattle yesterday, including the one nearest my place! I used two of them in earnest, one to go get my legs sugared and one to get my flu shot. I like the art on the platforms, especially on the southbound side of U District station. One of the implications of these new stations is that depending on time and how much I'm willing to walk, I don't have to take the E line; that busis a wretched hive of scum and villainy can be tryingly colorful at times. I ran into a member of the extended MOO kroo on the Ave, and she told me that if I need an excuse to go to Northgate station, Kizuki Ramen is it. I'll propose it to the Wendling.
Good: I went to the Sin night at Kremwerk last night in my latex LBD to meet up with the Seattle Latex Circle. No biggie, just people being social at a Goth-flavored – Aren't they all? – fetish night in their latex. I got to meet the attractive & charming organizatrix, Mme. Zoie. I enthused about London and the latex I saw therein, and got to compare notes with a lady with the same name, hair color, and build as my first gay kiss (ahem) who lived in London long ago and was planning a trip there in the near future.
Fun fact: Kremwerk requires masks if you're not "actively" eating or drinking, and people largely complied. Mme. Zoie asked me what the COVID policies were at Torture Garden; they're maskless, but they do check vax status, which in the UK is harder to forge than here. Said Mme. Zoie, "They're idiots." Time will tell.
But I did have a fabulous time! A+ will wear rubber clothes and chat with people doing same again.
Good: After my sojourn on I-5 this afternoon, I stopped at my ex's for a) a desperately needed bathroom break, and b) returning my car to my son. I said it was too bad that I needed to leave the car because I had a lot of heavy & bulky groceries to buy. Ex said, basically, take the car because the Wendling needs to learn how to deal. That was sweet of her, I think.
