Kick it in the ass, Maria.
Fingers crossed for good outcomes, Sparky.
I am going to pull up my socks and do things that need done today. I think "pulling up my socks" could become a new way to think about spoons, too.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Oh, Amy, gallbladder pain is not fun. I hope they can take you sooner. Soonest, really. ::gentle hugs::

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
And Hil.
And oh no, amyth! Come on, surgeon, be available. Or whatever is needed. Or chill out gallbladder. Something. Gah.

Oh no Sparky. Fingers crossed for a good outcome.
And oh no amyth. Pain is no good.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am going to pull up my socks and do things that need done today.
I am exhausted (I just dozed off in front of the computer for about 20 minutes instead of working) from sadness and being awake at 3 a.m. with a horrible IBS flare that I had to drug into submission. I think I'm going to write "Pull Up Your Socks" on a post-it and stick it on the TV.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I don't know what to say. Virtual hugs for everybody. Please, take care of yourselves.

I'm taking a break at the Winchester Public Library, my Ubering having taken me hither and yon today.
My Mom's experience with hospice was very good, so I can hope Ginger is in such good and wise hands, and that she'll get to rally and get to see Mr. Peabody again.
(Also, if dog adoption falls through, I'm quite willing to give him a good try.)

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Sparky, all good thoughts to you and your staff. I'm continually less and less impressed by my former school.
Amy, I hope you get some relief soon. I've been sending you healing thoughts since you first posted. I'm sorry they haven't worked.
Thank you all. We go in at 1:30 mountain time, and I get on a plane right after.

Sparky, I'm vibing hard for your best possible outcome. Bureaucracy blows.
Good luck, Maria. I can't imagine your pitch being anything but powerful and persuasive.
amy, all the 'we're on it' energy possible for your care team.
JZ, I hope, at the end of the day you can say that it went more smoothly than you expected.
As for me, I'm wandering around with a cup of tea, waiting for a meeting to start and thinking about the incredible stress I'm under right now. The middle of the year was so GOOD. Today, not so much.
Sock pulling up, indeed.
