Yay, Dana!
Yay, -t!
Ouch, Suela. Here's to quick healing.
Yeah, Steph, I feel you. This is just hard, and there isn't any bit of it that's not going to be hard. But you are there, doing the right thing, and good on you for that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Excellent news, Dana and husband of Dana!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Job~ma in abundance to Dana's DH, yay -t!, and endless vibes to Teppy and her brother, and I hope he and his wife eventually come to realize how lucky they are to have her in their lives.

Good luck, Dana's husband. And OY, Consuela. Best wishes to your dad and you.
Watching one of my favorite local crime & courts reporters, my Prague roommate's high school friend (and now living just blocks from me) and mayoral candidate (and high visibility BLM activist) DeRay converse on Twitter. Baltimore's a...place.

Well, the smalltimore verbiage is somewhat problematic (and I've used it) and we do run in the same intellectual spheres. It's complicated. And weird.

blurgh. home. With leftover mac & cheese in the oven, and a whiskey ginger at my elbow.
He broke his wrist and his head wound bled like a stuck pig: my sister describe his apartment as looking like an abattoir. He was still super wobbly when we got him back to his ALF, and left the staff with the pages of instructions. I feel so awful, but I can't take him home, I have to work and I can't provide his care by himself. They will check on him hourly and make sure he gets everything he needs, although I have to make some followup appointments for him.
This is how it's going to be now, I think.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Lots of good thoughts for Steph and Suela.

I feel so awful, but I can't take him home
That's what the ALF is for, to take care of the vulnerable when other options aren't there. It's wonderful you have someone to look after him.
