On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Dudes! My EF was in the NORMAL RANGE for the first time in eight years! Everything read as normal, in fact. Normal, normal, normal. What a happy word.

Oof, I hope you find your keys after work -- that is such an annoyance.

I should do some things now. I think I'll start with laundry -- I think I just have one load.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Heck yeah, normal vibes for everyone.

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.

Hell yeah!!!!
