Mabel's Only Fans Headshot

Dreamed I was throwing a party. Guests were arriving by twos (just like the animals in the Ark.) I’d invited everyone I'd ever really liked—there was A_______ with a boyfriend I didn’t even know she had; there were MaryBeth & Kim.

But I hadn’t really planned any activities for the party, and the only food I was preparing were… hamburgers. (Hamburgers???) Which I was grilling in some kind of oversized oven that required me to ignite it with some kind of pilot light. Only I was having problems lighting the pilot light, so I was screaming incoherently to Ben, Can you please come over here and help me?

And Ben was walking away…

RTT interrupted his regular All-Sports-All-of-the-Time ISG Story programming to post a l’il paean to his fabulous mother:









And Ichabod called, and we chatted for a while about Law & Order’s effect on the American criminal justice system before composing Eurovision-style ditties for every member of our dysfunctional family.

So, all in all, it was a good day despite the fact that it was raining, and I may be back to Square 1 in the Rehoming Sweepstakes.

It dawned on me that if I want to live in the Sacramento area, I could just move there directly on my own. It is doable—in fact if I was prepared to move there tomorrow, the Over-55 housing complex across from the Amtrak Station is now renting—though, of course, the logistics are a bit more daunting.

And, of course, who knows? The perfect housing situation may yet emerge here in the quaint & scenic Hudson Valley. I do like the quaint & scenic Hudson Valley in many ways better than I like California.

###

What California has going for it is:

(a) I’m not a freak in California. (At L’s party, I was trying to explain to Mrs. Neighbor Ed, “Thing is, I’ve never aspired to live any differently than I did as a graduate student—” And she gaped at me in utter incomprehension.)

(b) There is only one person who loves me in the quaint & scenic Hudson Valley. There are many people who love me in California.

Sometimes, a girl just wants to be loved, you know?

###

What the quaint & scenic Hudson Valley has going for it is that it’s a fantastically beautiful place, just seeped in the type of history that appeals to me most plus a sense of… numinosity… There’s a reason why there are so many ghosts, Buddhist temples, & Catholic monasteries hereabouts.

###

Anyway, much to ponder.

Here is Mabel posing for her Only Fans headshot::

Sweet photos.

And of course, Mabel is gorgeous. Maybe looking forward to becoming a Calfornia cat?

Mabel wants to take all the pondering out of pondering. Good girl, Mabel!

if I want to live in the Sacramento area, I could just move there directly on my own. DONE, choose that. (If you decide you want to move.)

Mabel is such an It girl!

And I love RTT's paean.

But I can imagine the challenges of choosing between California and your quaint and scenic tromping ground. It sounds like a tough decision.
