There's a small child outside on her balcony lispily taunting her sibling with "peniths-head! You peniths-head!"
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm sorry he needs the surgery, but glad it will fix him up right quick! Wishing him hale & hearty. & definitely what Sparky said.
Yeah!

How did you handle it? With maximum embarrassment, I'd hope.
Of course. It was France, where it is totally encouraged to teach by humiliation. It was handled in front of the entire class. Honestly, I doubt that kid will ever do anything like that again. I'll take that over an "Honor Board" any day.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I keep thinking, "Thank god it's hard to repossess kids!"
Been a few days recently where I'd be willing to let them come and get Owen, if we had any outstanding unpaid medical.
Surgery~ma to Noah.
I really don't think that they should give parents of preemies those bills--you guys shouldn't even have to see that shit. Besides all the other stuff you're dealing with, I would think that seeing those figures would only add to the stress (no matter who is covering the bills).
I always get freaked by the EOB's my insurance company sends out--just seeing the costs they charge gives me hives.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fuck, my ER bills freak me out, and those don't even rate as hospital bills go.
In news of major relief to me, they've worked out my insurance issues, and now I have the correct plan. No ID#, so I'm not sure what to do about the scripts I have to refill, but it's a start.

Oh.my.god. I Itch. Most likely allergies to one of the million pollens coming through my open windows. I mean, I'm glad it isn't manifesting like a cold , but my eyelids itch. And my forehead. And scalp. And my earlobes. Cold compresses help, but still. Yack. Already have a thin papercutty wound where lobe meets jaw, which always happens with my skin gets irritated. It itches. And hurts.
And this is all so minor, but itch itch itch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Guys don't use the same scale. I have been told too often that a guy won't hang out with a chick for any considerable time if he's not angling for something more.
This particular guy? Not angling! As far as I've ever been able to tell... I forgot my favorite thing about him, since we haven't seen each other in a long time: He knows I'm not a hugger, so we shake hands! My favorite. And the event was great, and not as long as I expected, so all in all, a lovely evening.
