In part two of Ask the Buffistas:
Do you think I can get through airport security with four strings of twinkle lights in my carryon? Or should I pack them in a checked bag?
Maybe I've always been here.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I would go for the checked bag, Sue.

Sue, I would check them if you have checked luggage. I think of security as overly officious and yet still incompetent. That means they seem to pick things to pick at and lights might be it.
Noah is no longer amused by sleeping under the tree. It's 7:00 AM, K is helping her mom move out of her house today so I am home alone, not in my home fwiw, with caterwauling baby. I've already worn a whole in the carpet walking him and now I'm letting him just cry in the hopes that he'll cry himself to sleep.
Sigh.

I was thinking of checked bags too. But then I thought, what if they Xray the bag and see a tangle of wires and freak? But I hope they'll figure out that they're Xmas lights.

Noah, give your mom a break. Relax. Have a nap! The day will come when you'll want to nap and you can't. Trust me. I'd give an arm for a nap right now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A nap right now would be great. Can we all take one?

Have a nap, ita.
I have an entire page of instructions for my cat sitter on cat care and feeding. For someone who has their own cat. And there's another page of notes on things about my house in case she stays over. Neurotic much?

I'm taking care of the upstairs neighbor's cat and she didn't even tell me the cat's name.
So you can go too far the other way, I guess is what I'm saying.
