I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Guinea pigs? Has Matilda's guinea pig reproduced??

We just got ourselves a pair - 3-to-4-week-old sisters, tentatively named Marcie and Prubs. I'm still a little nervous about the addition to our budget, but (a) it'll force us to keep things tidier; (b) even just the very short spates of petsitting Matilda's classmate's guinea pig proved conclusively that having critters around is very good for my mental health; and (c) Matilda has been alternately giddy and tearful with joy all day and my heart is squinching up with joy at her joy.

Guinea pigs were the compromise for kitty loving neighbor G ( mentioned on FB) because dad is so cat allergic. They live in harmony (and baby gates) with her brother's ball python and the family lab and labpit.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

By the clock in the Eastern time zone, it's now Scola's birthday.

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.

Happy birthday, Tom Scola!
