Allyson, I'm so sorry to hear that. Peace to you and your family.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My sympathies, Allyson.
I have on occasion eaten Cheetos with chopsticks to avoid getting my fingers messy.This is brilliant. Just brilliant.
Have a good nerve block, ita!
Packing has led to many days of sneezing and whoa the sinus headache. Am to bed now. I need to do laundry and pack tomorrow for the memorials on Saturday. Oh and continue to organize my house for moving. I need a clone.

Allyson, my thoughts are with you and your family. It's so hard.
Will you be able to see The Nephew of Cuteness? That would be a comfort to all, I hope.

Also thinking of you, Allyson, and your family!

I'm sorry about your grandfather, Allyson. Much peace to you and your family.
Checks: I have plain, green ones. The utility companies and my landlord will just have to cope with the boredom.
Tattoos: None at the moment. I've been dithering about what to get, and where. At the moment I'm thinking of a stylized harebell: [link]
But that's just one in a series of possibilities. When I get an idea that sticks for a while I'll see about actually getting the tattoo.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
tired. slept in, therfore late. it seems everyone at work is dragging, so am in good company.
The lady at the coffee place where I get coffee about half the week now remembers me and almost remembers my order. That's nice.

I have X-Men checks from a company called Checks in the Mail. (They also have Spider-Man checks, but I resisted, as it's not quite my thing.) Not as expensive as you might think.
A friend of mine has gotten several tattoos from classic Tenniel and Gorey illustrations -- the original b&w line art makes for very attractive tattoos that he's not afraid will go out of fashion or else make him embarrassed when he's pushing his walker down the nursing home corridors.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, Love Monkey may have been cancelled, but the kid singer seems to be doing OK -- I heard his song on the radio yesterday, and now it's on MTV.

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

You are the anti-me. And that's not a size dig. I don't give the Coffee Bean person my first name, but my last (though one cheerfully remembers it and greets my by it) and I vary my order anyway. I would like them to remember that when I say "regular tea latte in a large cup" I want extra space not extra milk, but other than that...back off the familiarity.
I'm not the sort of person that thrives on being a regular. In fact, one of the cashiers said "Oh! You always get the same thing!" and seemed taken aback when I denied it.
