Lots of ~ma for your dad and mom, Kat.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Thanks, smonster. It's made even more dramatic because my sister and niece are in Ohio and my mom is supposed to drive to Arizona with them to drop D, my niece, off at college. My sister was with my parents last year for 9 months while she had a liver transplant.
Life for my mom is interesting.
Oh Kat, much copingisms to you and your family. That's too much medical drama.
yikes Suzi. Mac has 3 weeks left. Pooper was being a poop tonight, but I stood my ground and he did not get read to tonight. We have a schedule for all weekdays going forward until school starts. tv and ds are cute WAY back and he has to start reading everyday or he loses on of them for the next day. ion - free ride zone out vacation is over.
I hope he pulls through with flying colors, Kat.
Unutterableswearword! I was waiting 'til today to call to reserve free tickets to the Huntington Garden. They're already sold out. The ticket agent says they sell out in 5 min. every month that they go up for "sale".
Go Master Msbelle! I know it might be hard, but necessary.
Yeah, spidra, they go fast. If you reserve online for the afternoon entrance it's better. But they still go fast.
I just remembered I get to go as part of CA Rare Fruit Growers' Festival of Fruit so I am less bummed now.
free tickets to the Huntington Garden
I remember quite fondly the month I spent at the Huntington as part of the process of digitzing their card catalog. Hour lunch breaks every day that involved walking through the rose garden to the lunch tables, talking to the retired USO dancer who always wore purple and told tales of WWII and her research into women's history, and most especially the day when my machine broke down and the tech wouldn't be there till the next day, so I had the whole day free to wander the galleries. I found myself in the Medieval/Renaissance wing, discussing the iconography of the various icons with one of the bored guards, then explaining the techniques of the weavings of the tapestry (yay, SCA experience). I turned around to find a school group listening to my "lecture". And taking notes. Apparently the temp "Huntington Staff" badge leant me street cred.
