That call I was avoiding from the aunt the other day? Turns out my uncle (her brother) has prostate cancer. Now I feel like a jerk. I didn't think it was anything serious. My uncle supposedly had surgery this weekend, and I don't know anything else other than the fact that I am supposed to wait until Monday to call him. ~ma would be appreciated. This uncle happens to be the one member of my father's family that has been very good to me over the years.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Oh, my mom found out that her results were clean for cancer, but that she probably needs more thyroid medication. Thanks for the mama-ma.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
~ma for your uncle, sj. And {{}} for you.

Hil, Waterloo is an hour or so from Toronto. The anchor of Canada's "research triangle" - a very known and prestigious place to be for math and science. And not a bad town, really. The accent is on the "loo".
Oh, man. Lemon bars and bead-hunting with Buffistas and a dog named Frida sounds like a perfect afternoon!
Doesn't it?
Lucy and I are just back from a walk that started at about 4. My time. We were passing by a bar I frequent, and the bartender from the patio recognized her. Some hours, many beers and shots (me), and platters of sausage and bowls of water (her), and we're finally back home. She's in much better shape than I am.

She looks so cute! I love the pre-cut expression on her face.

What a big girl Em is now! Gorgeous!
We won our game today. Emmett had a bases clearing triple.
I'm totally suffering for my foolish failure to not wear sunscreen.
The summery weather snuck up on me!
Emmett has discovered that blowing bubbles with gum cracks Matilda up. His life is pretty much dedicated to making her laugh anymore.

Rock on Emmett.
How did it take him this long to figure out the bubble thing? Maybe it took her this long to react, I guess. I totally remember that from when Hilary was wee.
Emmett and Matilda are my total OT-non-creepy-P.
