Now tagless for your comfort.

I just got to see the Prop 8 stuff. That's huge. I just have to avoid FB in case one of my annoying relatives posts something that I'll have to go off on.

My day started with my sister waking me with a phone call to tell me her mother in law had had a stroke and they were taking her off life support so not much could really pull me out of a mood.

Yay Wil Wheaton?

I've been chuffed to see some people on my FB who've been posting the Prop 8 news, people who I know from long ago or not in a political sense so I don't so much know where they stand.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'll do it.

Our wings are not tired.

Awww, Cash, that sucks. I am sorry.

Thanks, java. Life usually hands out a couple of completely douchy days and this just happens to be one of them.

Bright side? Nearly over.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Aw, Cash, that utterly blows.

So I'm shifting my frame of reference. Instead of seeing this impending road trip as darting across the country to babysit dad, I'm taking this as our family vacation. I think I have to pull Noah from two weeks of his summer program (ugh... I wanted those to be an adjustment for him. Sorry, kid). I think we'll take the Northern Route to Ohio and the Southern Route home. So if you leave near I-80 or I-40 and would like to hook up, let me know.

Tomorrow is Dad's pacemaker surgery.

I know Cruces is off the path of 40 by 3 hours, but if it falls in line with getting where ever, I'l hook you up with my parents. I'm pretty damned certain they'd be happy to put you up at any time.

Kathy, I'm up for Xoco any time you want. Really. Any time.

We really must have a weekend date! I'd have to get my ass downtown, though--it's been forever since I've been in the city.

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

Ugh, Cash. I hope the bad days are over for the year.

I also did not have a good day, other than Prop 8

What is even happening?

Oh Lisa, I'm so sorry.

Kat, you gotta do what you gotta do, but as a parent, your first charge is your kids. If you can't manage the kids and the other things you have to/want to do, you are not evil if you say no.
