Ugh, Dana. I wish smooth sailing from here on out for you.
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

I love our TG traditions too. I have just cleaned a corner in our bedroom so that we can move Noah in with us so Sara need not share with a twin.
My face is hideously broken out, especially with a cluster of 5 small bumps on my forehead. I fear I might be growing a horn.

Eh, your couch is comfy! Throw me anywhere. Where does Gracie sleep?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm growing a horn, too! WTF, Hormones? Back off my face!

Cash, we are proto-unicorns!!
Actually my bump(s) are so bad that Grace's nurse P looked at me yesterday and said, "What happened to your head?"
Shut up, dude.
Sara, we have a new couch. It's small for me and would be way too short for you.
Grace sleeps in the walkthrough from living room to kitchen.

Not on, Dude! I'm waiting for mine to grow big enough to put on popthatzit.com.

I have been looking for examples of irony to use with my students because they are not all getting it.
Today, Grace's teacher sent home some of Grace's work including a Thanksgiving book Grace "made" (with handy signs!) and a picture. The picture [link] is a perfect example of irony given Grace takes NO FOOD at all by mouth.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
"In the Sweet By & By." Has that been suggested? There are some lovely hymns out there.
We are having a good but emotionally fraught preconvention. But everyone I expect to be here is here, so that's nice. Tomorrow more preconvention before we have to be thrown to the dogs. Err, I mean, promote our work.
I should be asleep.

well, they think that it's a black fly in their chardonnay or 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.
