My best friend's father just went into hospital and is not expected to make it back out, so she'll be travelling to his deathbed in Miami on her daughter's birthday. And I can't even call to see how she's doing because she's too busy tonight last minute prepping for the international trip. Goddamn. Also, oyveh.
He doesn't travel well. He's like fine shrimp.

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
OH MY GOD LET ME ON THE PLANE.
I'm sorry for your friend, ita. 2012, not doing so great yet.

Oh, I'm sorry for your friend, ita. So hard.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Dana, I hope you are on your way.
ita !, that is awful. I'm so sorry.

Blerrgh. Drinking hippie electrolyte drink, making peppermint tea, and going to try toast with jelly. I have some white rice, but I can't bring myself to eat it plain.
Unfortunately, moving around seems to make it worse. And I forgot that I have people staying with me tomorrow and Friday night. I hope this isn't contagious!

Not a fun trip to make, uhg.
I had to fish Pumpkin out of the basement ceiling again. Not to thrilled on the parts where she was walking across wiring! And then all three played battlebots as I tried to put away the xmas tree. CATS!
We just hired me a minion who I'm pretty sure is smarter and more clever than I, and less of a procrastinator. And a better (read: less reluctant) coder than I.
This is not helping my midwinter doldrums.

Because books.
Careful with the jelly, smonster. Sweets don't always sit right for me when I've got stomach ick.
ita, I'm so sorry. Your poor friend.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

So, I do not approve of the toe shoes unless you are running in them, or going to where you will run. But I am currently wearing toe SOCKS, and all I can think, because they are white, is "mime feet!"

And he died before she could even finish packing. Fuck.
