Lyra, that's just too much. Oh, dear.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Congratulations to the Haydens! Happy Birthday to Maria and Kristin!
I must do my dishes, clean my apartment, and do all five loads of laundry today, as well as finally get around to installing my new bedroom blinds for which I bought the cordless screwdriver weeks ago, and all while just wanting to curl up with a heating pad on my lower back and stomach. I hate my body every five weeks or so. Well, actually, I hate my body pretty much all the time, but right how it's really achy. Bleargh.
Timelies!

Congratulations to the haydens! Welcome Abraham! As an Illinois resident, I can't help but notice that he was born on the eve of Lincoln's birthday. (Unless he was born after midnight -- in which case - he shares Lincoln's birthday.) An auspicious time for Great Abes.
My cats are very chatty. I believe that not only may one of them have been naturally chatty but people who talk to their cats make them chattier.
Also, I know plenty of sweet and snuggly dogs who also are vocally demanding and opinionated. Sometimes, it's just a matter of time.
But Layla sounds like a sweetie.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Y'know, I love the Goo Goo Dolls, and I love tattoos, and yet I still wouldn't get a lyric line of theirs tattooed on my back. She is so going to regret that one in 15 years.
Timelies. I was woken up by the sound of my husband working out and watching The Simpsons. There are worse ways to wake up, I guess, but it's still too early.

Congrats to Hayden & Mrs. Hayden!
Happy Birthday, Kristin and Maria!
STOOPID commercial! People, you know the 99 ballons go on to CAUSE WORLD WAR THREE, right? In the song you've used for your valentine's day commercial?
Maybe it's the same ad execs that used that Zoom Zoom Zoom song in a car commercial while blithely ignoring that the auto execs might be amongst the first whiteys against the wall in its context?

The status is NOT quo.
Hi everyone! Thanks for all the birthday wishes!
Oo, and congrats to the Haydens! Wonderful news.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Zoom Zoom Zoom song in a car commercial while blithely ignoring that the auto execs might be amongst the first whiteys against the wall in its context?
It's just a general song about killing. No need to segregate by race. Historically it was mostly black on black that the song was about, in fact.
I drink coffee way too slowly -- it's always lovely to open a new bag, because it tastes so much better.
CONGRATULATIONS ON MINI HAYDEN'S ARRIVAL!!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
