I read this line: She had trained for virtually everything, but this.

And thought: She had virtually trained for everything, but this.

A slightly different meaning. Excellent story, J.

As for craigslist: I have been wasting my time selling used lawn furniture and tools! I had NO IDEA of the things / services that could be found there! Great twist!

Oh, that *is* and interesting nuance. Hmmm 🤔

Craigslist… you live around Santa Cruz, right? You must see some questionable posts. The missed connections are worth a deep dive into Crazyville.

There’s a LOT of questionable stuff going on around here, J. I haven’t spent any time poking around craigslist looking for it, though, so I can’t tell you about that.

As I was reading I thought, man J. has some really sick shit going on... kind of let down that it wasn't about you. But also very happy! Hugs : ) OK gotta go check to see if my leaf blower sold.
