We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

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

You can recognize your stuff by how it`s awesome with awesome guns!

You haven't looked recently.

There's been an, uh, a spate. With no guns.

I can see if I can work from home Wednesday to simplify things.

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

Surgery-ma for Grace, and I hope it's just the one and not both. (eta: unless both would be better, of course.)

There's been an, uh, a spate. With no guns.

BUT STILL NICE

Popovers ARE delicious. I want some more. But what I do have: TJ's chocolate croissants that I baked this morning!

Emmett is taller than me?!?! That's so wrong. Good god, my trip to SF where Hec and I went to the gogo party was like, ten years ago. Jesus. Or, Hey Zeus Crisco.

I am not mushy. And I would not want a super public proposal of the screen-at-sporting-event type. But I could go for something arranged and mushy. My BIL proposed to my sister by sneaking a fake story into their Sunday NYTimes copy, saying "[his last name] Proposes To [her last name]" with quotes from their friends (who had helped)

They just get enormous all of a sudden.

You thrifted two go-go dresses before you came to SF just for that club.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

So maybe instead of thinking of it as a gimmicky proposal, think of it as men who enjoy a grandiose romantic gesture and figure this is their moment.

Oh, I'm all about him having his moment. It's just that, the more complicated the proposal, the greater the peril that something will go wrong, and the greater the chance that I'll be what screws it up. I'll swallow it, or I'll drive by the billboard a hundred times and not notice. Proposal depends on me doing something, and maybe I won't want to... I think too much. Especially about things that are probably never gonna happen. Though specifically, I don't like public proposals because it feels more like he's playing to the crowd than to his girl. The moment is special; it doesn't need more cowbell.

Yes, this.

Thanks to all who had restaurant ideas, I have passed them on.

Today is my last day at work until Jan 3rd - hurrah!

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

Both would actually be great. The laryngotomy would be a laser procedure to remove scar tissue in her larynx. If the bronchoscopy shows it's worthwhile, then that would mean that she has enough leakage around the trach that she is/can/does breath through her mouth. This may be the case as she does make noises.

I don't know. We'll see.
