You know, my big sister could really beat the crap out of her. I mean, really really.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Wow, that was even tl;dr for me on rereading to check for typos.

hip deep in pie

That is very frustrating Liese.

I am just sititng on the couch like a lump, even though my sister has called and told me she's coming for a visit. Tomorrow. Or maybe Saturday. She doesn't know. I've told she's welcome to come anytime, but I need notice so I can tidy. She seems to consider 24 hours enough notice. It's not.

Our wings are not tired.

Liese, that sucks. I know entirely too well how dealing with stupid techie issues can eat up a whole day!

Jesse, what did they name the twins?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Caleb and Joshua. I'm still waiting to hear about the other baby born this week!

I love the name Caleb.

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

Caleb is a great name, even if I associate it with the guy that put Xander's eye out.

When I was at BevMo, I thought I might pick up a bottle of Oban. $70???? Googling, I see it for around $50. I'm replacing a bottle. Did I really have a bottle of $50 whiskey in my house--and FINISH IT? When did I become that girl with those guests? And who were those guests?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Good grief, got my electric bill and it's FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!! That's over four times what I normally pay, and that's their *estimate*. How can they look at my past bills and *guess* at such an increase??!?!!

Sadly, grievously, tragically, not me.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That's probably better than a $50 bottle of Tequila.

Maybe.

Ha ha!

Also: Ugh, Liese and Juliebird. At least if your bill is a crazy high estimate, you won't have to pay next month.
