Everything since Readercon has been exhausting to no good end. Something needs to give. The cat dying was the wrong thing.

Yeah, it's a certifiably dreadful set of things you've been dealing with, that's for sure. (Thank god I took that course at Holyoke Community College in Life Event Certification, which qualifies me to say...)

I don't know what the music events that yamamanama has been going to (described here and here), but they have to be somewhere near you, and they seem like the sort of things you and derspatchel might enjoy. If schedules, time, and transportation allow, they might be a good distraction.

Summer Arts Weekend is over now, but there will be one next year. Same place (Copley Square)
