While George was wandering himself all over the western US, he encountered a lot of folks who were doing a lot of gendery stuff. From the seemingly-cishet dude at the hardware store in the bay, to the queers at the psychedelic conference, to the cissies at the support group near home, there was much gender to be had.

George's shoulder surgery went better than expected, although being an 'old retired guy' everyone wants to talk about injuries and ailments. While he recovers we're preparing for Child#2 to turn 18 and move out, with strongly mixed feelings.

When westerners call the generational status of caring for children and elders simultaneously "Sandwich Generation", Jess thinks that makes it sound like flavorful fillings in an easily handled form, but we have found it to be far from tasty. George especially finds it challenging while also dealing with repeated illness and injuries.
