Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

Oh, look. Cheese dipped in magic Zankou garlic goo.

Behold the power of crack.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have a Buffista parent question for a piece I'm writing. As a parent, when you look at older (over age 10 or so) kids, what do you see? Do you see their younger selves, even their babyselves in them? Is it a matter of glimpses or one solid impression?

Ugh, Aimee. If it helps any, my grandmother's had congestive heart failure for like 10 years. It's not necessarily as bad as it sounds.

Moooom, msbelle's picking on me!

I was answering what I supposed was your question.

But I do need a break. But not gonna get one.

Not a parent but

Is it a matter of glimpses

this is what happens for me with my friend's kids and my nephew and cousins, mostly. Though I completely didn't recognize a cousin I hadn't seen since he was 14 and now he's mid-30s. But he's gotten buff and stuff.
