Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, it wasn't even a wreck. This guy just drifted over into our lane, and scraped the side of our car, in the back. It was the going-80-on-the-highway part that made it scary. Luckily, we were on our way to a liquor-friendly household, so we could start drinking wine as soon as we got to the house, at 10 am. That took the edge off.

The shower itself only took like four hours. Two hours there and back, a lot of miscellaneous sitting around for no reason, traffic getting back to the city, a subway ride home, and there you go.

And I have no further info on the aunt, as family communication day isn't until tomorrow. Heh.

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

Am I allowed to pack up the cats, Lorne, my laptop, and a few other odds and ends and just leave everything else here?

Aren't you forgetting the pimp hat?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That would be one of the "odds and ends".

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

More odd than end.

ita, I think I need to bow out of the packing tomorrow, since I haven't done near enough myself today. Sorry about that.

Sorry that you won't be joining us. Can't you get the cats to earn their keep and do some of your packing?

Me too. Maybe I can be strangely efficient tonight and tomorrow morning so that I can change my mind.

Hey, want to go get pie later tonight? We were supposed to do that at some point.

I think you're working at counter purposes here, mmm?

How about we go get pie tomorrow evening? As a reward for all the work we'll have done (even if independently)?

Yep. I had a feeling you would catch that.

Tomorrow evening sounds good. About 8:00?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

ok. made the CI cupcakes. that is a grown up cupcake - nice rich dark chocolate. way better than average. I put a mocha butter cream on them.

This is the first time in my life that one chocolate cupcake was enough. that much chocolate in a cupcake....
