Oh sarameg, I am so so sorry. My heart breaks for your family
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
World, give Buffistas and their families a break!
Meanwhile, the little guy has an ear infection. He's doing better today than he was last night, so that's good.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yikes, Calli! Stay safe.
That goes for everyone in NC. On the East Coast. Everyone. Just stay safe, y'all.
I'm so sorry, sarameg.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
sarameg, that must be so hard. I'm sorry.
Steph, you and Tim have already borne so much grief and stress this year. I am very sorry that there is more.

I could go get my car smogged after work, they are open until 7, but I don't want to get stuck there until it's too late to go to Tai Chi. I was hoping their closing time would me more of a deciding factor. Ah, well, tomorrow is soon enough. I mean, it's already two months late, what's another day?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I want to give everyone a break and a stress free vacation.
I gave myself a wee tiny one - went out last night and saw two friends from college, not close friends, but one traveling through town. It was hours out at night which I never do and dinner got comped and they mostly talked which put me in a rare position socially of not being "on". It was lovely. Today I took a sick day because no reason and I cleared off the tivo and did one load of laundry. also lovely.

Sheryl, poor little guy. I hope he's feeling better soon.
The entire Teacup family is cranky today each for our own reasons.

Punishingly Intricate
I want to give everyone a break and a stress free vacation.
for real. and also a hug or whatever kind of support you need or want.
It is crazy windy here. I was working in DC and my friend who I work with and I left at 3 to avoid trying to make it back during rush hour storms. Thank goodness. But now I need to go out to help try to recruit more riders at the org I do the big ride for every year. Because I promised I'd go and I'd feel guilty if I didn't. Also, there will be pizza. Good thing I'm sturdy and unlikely to blow away!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds perfect, msbelle.
My colleague in DC said they had tornado warnings! We just have rain, not even wind yet. Which is good, since it still took a million years to get home, but at least my umbrella didn't break!

msbelle, awesome.
Roof leaking. Including the threshold I thought I'd (temp) fixed. Steady stream upstairs.
Now need to go check basement. That was/ is a lot of water coming down.
