Theme Parks, Antique Fairs and Writing

 I've been watching a lot of horror movies. I just recently watched one that is outside my norm. I tend to like spooky horror, not slasher horror, but Tubi kept suggesting one particular one so I said, "Meh... why not?" Because curiosity was triggered. It wasn't as gross as American Mary, but it made me nauseous.  Speaking of nauseous, friends are coming out to go to Magic Mountain. I haven't been there in so long, but I do have powdered headache medication that I'm going to give Steven because I don't know how you can go on roller coasters all day without a headache. He might be very sick by the time he makes it back to the Port commune.   I went to a little antique/art show with Sue and had a blast! I really shouldn't have, but I bought myself a pair of pumpkin earrings! They dangle and are so stinking cute! I wanted to get her kitty earrings as a joke. She keeps saying she doesn't want kitty stuff but ... I think she loves the things we find her...

Puzzle Exchanges, Birthday and Writing

Wow! We drove one hour and twenty minutes to get to our destination for the puzzle exchange. It was utterly insane how many people there were participating in this! I had a good time, but I'm definitely new at this so this made me a little nervous. I needed someone who has talent in customer service to go with me to do all the talking. I did take twenty puzzles from my collection for the exchange and brought back twenty-one puzzles that are new to me.  Sue and I went to Newport and got lunch with Miss Rosy-Dosy. She's so adorable. Her and her boyfriend took us to a very local and wonderful Mexican restaurant. Everything is within walking distance from where they live which is super close to the beach. People ride bicycles down there and lots of people walk with surf boards. It was nice and warm, but it'd been a little cold that morning so I wore a long sleeve shirt that I clearly no longer needed. Rosy-Dosy gave Sue and me a starter kit for sour dough bread. I am nervous. I...

Fancy Restaurants, Football Parties and Writing

 I went out to eat at this super nice restaurant with Sue. We got teas and salads and yeah... they also offered bread, which I can't eat, but she really seemed to enjoy. The server even opened little packets for us to wash our hands! That is super fancy. I've never had someone open a cloth for me to wash my hands with.  We went to the garden store and Sue picked some really nice plants to put in her garden. She got pepper plants, which looked decorative to me, but she swears you can eat the peppers... I don't know, they looked more like for show. Anyways, that commune eats a lot of peppers. Which is funny. Each commune has something so exotic about them and hers is the constant beautiful peppers they grow and eat all the time.  I went to our apartment complex party. It was for the start of the football season, so they had nachos (which I can't eat), cupcakes (which I can't eat) and soda, which I did grab. They had a decorative football wall, flags with all the teams...

Yacht Clubs, Moon Sister Plays and Somewhat Writing

We spent the day out in Oxnard. It was so much fun. We had drinks, we got a nice ride on the Duffy. We looked at the new boats that are up for purchasing. We looked at seals (from a safe distance) and finally stopped at a Yacht Club for drinks. They're part of the yacht club... truthfully, I couldn't tell you the difference between a Yacht and a sailboat. I'm pretty sure I could point out a Duffy though!  My moon sister is in a play and I'm super excited for her. I wish I could get out to Arizona to see the show. I am going to send flowers her way because I told the commune that she's in the play and they want to go see it. I'm excited that I'll be there in spirit and flowers! because I'm so sad I'll miss it. I asked for pictures so I can see the story of the practices and she sent me one. I'm so excited.  Jeffery is going into surgery later this month. I'm really nervous for him and again, if I could just drop everything and get to Arizona, ...
