Speaking of Benadryl, I have just, since my last post, broken out in red and itchy patches. Time for the Aveeno and whatever Benadryl I have lying around.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I blame you and quester.
Let me go run a bath.

Sorry! A thousand pardons, oh shiny, lethal one!

I do not fear the ita.
A continent helps. Also, she'd pity my weaklingness.
Good bath.
Good night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I got weighed today, and it was Not Pretty. I should be thinking gym. Instead, I just ate Wise Onion Rings.
And you people talking about working on the weekend and UPS remind me that I never got an overnight package I was expecting. Huh. I guess I won't work this weekend?
There was something else I meant to comment on, I'm sure, but I seem to be kind of drunk.

Oh yeah. That's what it was: People's names got screwy on their way here, between "making it easier," converting from different alphabets, and etc. Also, "Ellis Island" is shorthand for US immigration. I'm not that upset with people who say their family name changed "at Ellis Island," even if they're wrong.
FYI.

Hee, Jesse.
( I lied.)
My grandmother and her parents really did go through Ellis. (I'm going there next time I visit you.) My grandfather as well, but I don't know when and he had an incredibly common name. And apparently, it was made up in Sweden, not here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Ellis Island is in our hearts, and we carry it with us wherever we go.
Unless we're Native American. Or a few other exceptions....

As far as I know, none of my family went through Ellis (either too soon or too late), and there are a lot of original-country names still, as far as I can tell.
