Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

-t, while I wouldn't *endorse* root canals and don't, you know, want another one, I would say that placing that procedure on the Apex of Suck is a little dramatic. I have faced things much harder than that, although they aren't a vacation indulgence, either, sadly. (Hugs Karl, while he's here)

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Oh no. Love and peaceful vibes to Trudy and her family.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks for passing the news, Cass. {{{{{Trudy}}}}}

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Love and condolences to Trudy and her family. Thanks, Cass for letting us know.

And belated Birthday wishes to P. Tickybox.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Thanks for passing the word, Cass. Please give Trudy my condolences and love when you talk with her next.

Absolutely. Her family is all there together.

Ticky being 21 is unpossible. But she's brilliant so I'm glad she is all grown now.

The status is NOT quo.

Sending to much love to Trudy and her family. I know we say it over and over, but it’s still true: It’s always sudden.

I am in total denial that Tickybox could be 21.
