I'm sorry, Jon. May light eternal shine upon him.
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

If I only had a brain...

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
So sorry for your loss, Jon.

WANT.SAND.CAT.
(actually, my cousin brought back a domesticated -by her, but due to the cat moving into her place- cat from Africa that looks remarkably like a sand cat. So fucking cute.)

So, my friend who's family lost their house and all it's contents in a menorah candle fire on xmas, and who was left with a broken leg and serious burns on his right arm? Got mugged and beat up on the way home the other night.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Brenda, you are kidding. That's AWFUL.

That's horrid. May the chinese new year (been reading about it) be a start-over for him & his family.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Brenda, tell your friend to check his back for a sign that says "Universe, kick me." That's...I dunno...whether you look for truth in statistics or gods or both or neither...totally unfair.
My father is better enough to be going to the North Coast this weekend. Which is great. He's told me to not "get belted, but then again, hope you do." It's remarkable sometimes when you're confronted with how related (doesn't even have to be by blood--let's not discount nurture) one is with one's family.
Two loads of laundry going, the floor of my closet tidied, and another load of laundry ready to go in ten minutes. I think I'm excited about the nerve block, and optimistic about being able to take the test.
I hate being optimistic.

Totally. Either he's got some serious bad karma (which I resisted saying) or he's got some crazy good karma coming his way.
Did I ever tell y'all the story of the fire and what his mom did?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Jon, I'm so sorry for your loss.
