Temporary Housing

During renovations, we need to move out of our house.

Duration: probably 4-6 months starting in late September

Humans: 3

Cats: We might be able to leave the cats in the house or have one or more with us in the temporary housing.

Commute: we have to drive our son to school in Sherman Oaks and I'll probably be working out of my home office in Burbank.

What are my local options besides an Airbnb?

Quoted text

What in the holy heck did Asana do to the ``` option?

This was a great way to highlight important text. Now as a numbered code block it completely makes that useless.

How does everyone else make something stand out or quote a previous piece of someone's comment? Bold and underline are sometimes just not enough.

Full-Service Barber

I decided this year it was finally time to treat myself and booked a full service appointment. Haircut, shave, mask, etc. Loved it. Went back again. Then... My barber moved out of the area. Went to the place a third time but it wasn't the same.

Looking for recommendations for a new barber. Ideally Magnolia Park. Who do you recommend and why?

Thanks in advance

When to read Ghostsong?

​

I read (listened to) Empress of Beasts and then Gravesong and Huntsong. Now working on Hell's Wardens. When should I read Ghostsong?

Also, I've heard a lot of good things about Hell's Wardens but I'm really struggling to engage. Around what chapter did it really hook people?

Thanks

Inconsistent Rules?

I went through TSA at airport 1 today with my carry-on no problem. Plane died, got sent to a different airport.

Went through security at airport 2 with my carry-on and my future checked bag, no problem. Later left secure zone to check my checked bag.

Returning through security in airport 2 in the exact same security lane there's a guy with a headset like he's working the drive-through saying "remove laptops if you have more than one" - I was pre-check and clear and touchless digital and with two successful passes through TSA security already.so didn't think it applied.

And it got flagged and he took the laptops and kindle our and sent everything through again. Anyhow, it all passed and if this were the other thread you could tell me YTA for not following instructions.

But my question (finally) is - why did the rules change in the past two hours? I've never encountered this before. Are they responding to a threat?

BUR: No maintenance

Finally found the downside to BUR - there are no maintenance crews stationed at BUR. If the pilot decides the plane needs maintenance, a crew needs to drive up from LAX.

Edit: They're sending me to LAX to catch a flight 8 hours from now.

Quiet Downtown

I was surprised at how quiet downtown was this morning. Every year we get Woodranch Grill and Artelisse takeout so it's something I've been able to observe over the years and everything was far quieter this morning compared to previous Mother's Days. Restaurants, streets, parking.
