Wow, that's a lot of crap news in a short period of time.
Also, Ple hates her new haircut.
Wishing much love to Noah and Grace. Hang in there you tiny little humans! Plump up and get ripe, please.
Theo, that sucks so bad. At least it wasn't performance related - just your standard layoff. Severance is good. Unemployment is good. Take advantage of them. Go take a short nearby trip. Write some fic.
AmyLiz if they had a $1,000 ATM withdrawal they might've scammed their way to a fake card. If they had your basic information they could call in a change of address then request a new card and have it sent to their pickup address. A common scam. Good news is that banks are used to this and will eat the cost.
Todd! I don't think you need any more health issues. But at least cataract surgery is very common and successful.
But I am happy for SA. Very happy.
Let's see if I've got some good news....Uh, our Little League team won last night? Emmett pitched terribly (lots of walks and a boneheaded play in the field), but he's 7 for 9 on the season and leads them team (by a lot) in RBIs and is second in Runs.
They don't have families. Well, not that they don't have families, but they're not close.
She says this as if it's a bad thing.
March is definitely on The List.
Holy crap, guys. I'm so sorry. This is an unbelievable wasteland of suck.
(My son was diagnosed this month: he's got my migraines, which is why he's missed 27 school days this year.)
Well we all know that all Americans are the same. The same way every Indian has a red dot in the middle of their forehead and drives a taxicab.
How much do I hate stereotypes?
Sorry that your mom is crazy P-C.
Polter-Cow, you are family to me because you matter to me.
Are you a candidate for surgery? I've heard some miracles in terms of cataract surgery.
The people I've known that have had it are thrilled with the result. Of course, if the new glasses are providing protection then that's good.
Oh my poor Buffistas. This is too much.
Well we all know that all Americans are the same.
Are you being sarcastic?
Because if you are...then I guess I can get rid of the gun rack, pick up truck and ninety gallons of gravy...
I can also cancel my Amazon order for "The Dukes of Hazzard" on DVD, huh? 'cause that show sucks, in hindsight.
(Who'm I kidding? I'm keepin' the gravy. Mmmm...gravy...)
Can we just divorce our crazy families and adopt each other?
Well we all know that all Americans are the same. The same way every Indian has a red dot in the middle of their forehead and drives a taxicab.
This is very true!
I just find it so hard to fathom that
she
finds it so hard to fathom that you silly Americans are very, very important to me.
Polter-Cow, you are family to me because you matter to me.
Aw, thanks. I was musing the other day that I seem to be very attracted to stories about The Family You Make for Yourself (e.g., everything Joss writes) because I generally like that one more than the one I was born into. Although I also like
The Black Donnellys,
which is Family Above All, and strong family relationships (e.g., Wonderfalls), so who knows what's up with me.
Holy Fuck, AmyLiz! I hope the replacement of your money is quick and easy. And I wish dire, swollen ass boils on the thievin' bastards that took it.
P-C, how about we take your mother to my next freakin' hillbilly family reunion. My mom's one of 12 kids and all but three of them live within a half an hour of each other. Our family reunions require the rental of a hall to get all the people in. They are scary close and take very good care of each other.
I just bought these shoes for Olivia. Man, they are tiny! And PINK! With glitter! And they were considerably less on sale at Kohls.
Owen picked out his own cammie sandals.
SA, congrats on grad school! Your news is a much needed bright spot.
