So glad to hear that Grace's surgery went well. Continued -ma to the whole family heading westward.
And... wow, Allyson, that's fantastic. Congratulations! Rock. Star.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

As the altimeter approaches 17,000 feet, a package of potato chips balloons outward until it ruptures a seam. Sunscreen and hand sanitizer erupt unbidden from bottles. In soft-sleeper class, Chinese businessmen sprawl listlessly on their bunks, sucking oxygen from plastic hoses. The bathrooms smell of vomit.

Congrats to Allyson and most especially to Grace for coming through her surgery like a trooper.
Cmon, I need some more southern subjects!
barbecue. REAL barbecue, not that crappy Yankee substitute
Fourth of July picnics
skinny dipping
hayrides
gazebos
church socials
the time-honored tradition of keeping crazy relatives in the attic

or a serious kerfuffle: Barbecue sauce -- vinegar or tomato based?
If you want something to bond with, talk about your last family reunion and how the organizer completely abandoned family tradition.

Personally I favor dry rub, but for wet I'd take tomato over vinegar.

I'm glad that Grace's surgery went well. Here's wishing she gets stronger soon.
Ah, mac, do you really have to act your age?
Isaac was a ginormous pill tonight as well. Day after holiday brattiness? I'm worried he's coming down with something, so actually brattiness would be better.
Man, another fire half a block away. Actually, not even that. It looks cater corner.
That was by you? We totally heard it. Weird. Your apartment is not allowed to catch on fire, just so you know.

That's what I'm blaming. Aliens replaced my baby with a toddler drama queen. It's not pretty.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I still wince when I walk by the little alcove in the BART station where Emmett had one of his most epic tantrums in front of 3,000 commuters.
