Oh, Cash. What a sweetie. Those eyes.

Day whatever of the ick. Congestion has chilled but sinus headache driving me nuts. I have a dentist appointment at 8am tomorrow. I really wish I had rescheduled it, but it is too late now.

Yay, Cash!

Ancestry.com showed me that my great grandfather arrived here with one last name and procreated with my great grandmother under another--and not due to the common Ellis Island changes that I'd expected. Still haven't found the story behind that.

Tom! I'm sorry you are not leaving on your own terms but I hope this leads to you being able to do something you love for someone who appreciates you.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

They didn't change names at Ellis Island -- it's a myth.

Thrive to spite them

Both my parents' last names are misspelled from the original. My paternal grandfather didn't know how his last name was spelled when he went to school so he just winged it. His mother had divorced his father and either remarried or started going back to her last name and never talked about her first husband.

Then Mom's maiden name is misspelled because (according to the story) when my great great grandfather (??) was sent to an Indian School they misunderstood and put a d where an r should have been.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

In a bit of good news, I made the A team in roller derby and my league got into WFTDA--the Women's Flat Track Roller Derby Association. Well, sort of. We got wait listed until their April rounds because they don't have enough mentor leagues. But still! Our application got accepted!

Kick ass! Our next-door neighbor just got a spot on the Cincy Rollergirls. She does not have a Derby name yet.

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

Okay, this clip of Kristen Bell having all the feels is entirely redeemed by Ellen being awesome. I know I was just bitching about Brian Moylan, but I can't lie, I judge right along with him. I just can't deal with that.
