Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Dana, did you acquire a puppy?

I believe that the puppy either belongs to Dana's parents or some other family member, as she is visiting the family this weekend.

I have my fingers crossed for Senor Sock.

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

Tomorrow I have kettlebell and sour cream waffles. Other than that, more lying around. Assiduously even.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Dana, did you acquire a puppy?

The parents' new puppy. Two and a half pounds of adorable.

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

Stupid anxiety. How can I make it go away, without drinking large amounts of booze?

move out and draw fire

{{{Tommy}}} I'd be beside myself, so I have no advice on not being anxious.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, maybe a small amount of booze... Also, slow regulated breaths. But really, I mostly find those things effective on no-good-reason anxiety.

I would be drinking large amounts of booze, myself.

I'm not the best example, but I drank a lot with Mister Kitty's illness when I didn't have to care for him. I'm not endorsing it. I just got maudlin.
