Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, I'm about to go out, but with someone well-versed in seeking me medical help.

Also? Not going to faint. My body wouldn't dare be that irritating.

My TiVo, on the other hand apparently has no issue being irritating, because it won't talk to my PC.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

They asked me who I was, and I told them I was an auntie. The nurse said, "antie?" And I said, "auntie."

Sheesh.

I am very very grateful to lori's shutterbugginess.

The charge nurse at Children's (one of the only nurses there we have liked) took a polaroid (!!) of me and K holding Grace. Polaroids are surprisingly more flattering due to the lower resolution.

Definitely to the latter. Mom took some blurry pics of me with D when he was born, and I look AWESOME.

When I went to the dentist, it cracked me up that they took a digital photo to attach to my file. I guess if I turn up dead and require dental identification, they can tell what I used to look like?!

Okay, how do you pronounce "Auntie"? Ahn-tea or An-tea?

And that picture along with the least flattering high school yearbook shot will show up on the nightly news.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ahn-tea or An-tea?

The first one. You know, LIKE IT'S SPELLED.

Ahem.

That's a lovely thought....

I say ohn-tee.

Auntie is like on-tee. I left the books underneath her bed, with her name written in them.

She had a very serene day.
