As promised, I went to Flammable on Sunday night and shook my booty. Happiness. I finally, after all these years, realized that there's a ritual at that night: there's always a red light hanging over the DJ. It's customary for people to get on stage and set it swinging. Yeah, I did it, for Erin O'Connor. Next up: shooting pool at the Merc, which I've never done and may get to do with Funny Lady on Saturday.
Today is the first anniversary of my mother's death. As I told my sisters, it feels longer. I guess that's what happens when you lose your mother years before you lose your mother, if you know what I mean. Good Sister stayed in our old house this weekend, making last minute preparations for the sale of the house and its contents. This included removing paint that Mom applied to the tiles on the kitchen floor. (?!)
In Halloween prep news, I've spent an eye-watering amount of money on a telescoping ladder that isn't a Chinese knockoff. I don't have the space to store a regular extension ladder, and I have 15' ceilings. over the living room. Le sigh.
