It’s all connected.

Handed in the AIVD puzzle and had a breakdown at the dentist. Wisdom tooth needs extraction.

BF came over two days ago to make me feel better, which he did! Love him to bits!

I had all four wisdom teeth out when I was 22. It was quite a traumatic experience. My daughter has just had two out recently and that seemed to go
fairly well. I wish you all the best and I’m sure you’ll be fine.

I've never had any wisdom tooth problem, but I've always heard people say it's awful and painful. Hope you'll be fine, Bonny.

Bought bus ticket from Dortmund to EIndhoven (not the other direction since that one was either leaving at 20:00 or at 1:30) and had a frustrating
time trying to buy tickets from DB. (German railways)

Well...
I'm going to Dortmund on Friday because of the Dir En Grey concert.
To visit it I have to get there and back. Since I have no better transportation than my bicycle I'll be going by other means of transport. Coach
travel is ideal, but the only offers I could find between Dortmund and Eindhoven were of FlixBus and only offered for departures 8PM (either too late
or too early, meaning I'd have to spend an extra day in Dortmund) or 1AM (not going to happen).
For the return trip I decided to take an 8PM coach from Dortmund.
So it would be train, and I bought that from Deutsche Bahn, the German railway provider. Paying for it was a bit of a nightmare but I succeeded.
Initially I used private window from Opera with VPN (which usually gives me Google results in either Russian or some Nordic language I haven't yet
identified) but when I bought them with a normal browser I could get it done.
Now there's just the place to stay, and now that I work at Belvilla I know exactly where the pitfalls are. So now I'm reading a lot of Allgemeine
Geschäftsbedingungen (because the Germans are clever enough to use the German-language terms and conditions as the valid ones).
At work I did a lot of detective stuff. I found a number of fraud cases that should be grouped together.

And what do you know, I can get Saturday off... getting to Paris is more costly than Dortmund but I could do it...
...Edit: the tickets appear to be sold out.
Edit 2: there are still tickets but getting there can't be done without staying somewhere and it's just too tricky to do by bus. Unless I can hitch a
ride, which probably will not happen, no Paris. I think I'll pass.

According to his account here he was 58 when he succumbed to his pancreatic cancer. Dean joined last September but he never logged in, so he doesn't
show up on the member list.
Dean lived in Paradise, CA for a long time. Last year he lost his home, including FZ collection, in the Camp Fire. A lot of Zappa forumers pulled
together to send him Zappa records, which was lovely to see.
