So, my poor parents have some plumbing situation that has resulted in "sewage" in their basement and will need them to replace the pipes to the street or some shit. Terrible! I'm trying to get them into a hotel, which I hope they'll at least do if it's not fixed tomorrow. Because, yikes!
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Eeks, Jesse! That's one of my run-screaming-to-mars scenarios.
I've got a theory that if you plop a baby into my arms, I'm guaranteed to think I look good, and maybe even pretty and not a dork, in the picture. [link] and [link]

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Having looked at those photos, I heartily agree with that theory, Sarameg.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
I have a ton of stuff do do for work, so I've spent the weekend rearranging furniture and going through clothes and books and stuff.
Sounds a little like my weekend! I should have been grading papers and getting exams ready. Instead, I did a little cleaning, took care of a bunch of research for upcoming productions, returned some phone calls, did some networking, spent time with DH, etc.
At least I feel a little rested. Tomorrow I'll put the students to work on their projects and get some grading done.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Jumping in to say that ASH is in the Masterpiece Theatre Persuasion tonight, I just saw his name in the credits!

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

You are pretty. And you have awesome hair. And the kiddoes are pretty doggone cute, too.

I don't think you need a baby to look pretty, sara, but I heartily endorse you holding babies anyway. That's an all-round win.

Aw, little tiny baby!
Eeks, Jesse! That's one of my run-screaming-to-mars scenarios.
Right? And they're going to be paying plumbers enough (they were there today on overtime and didn't get it fixed) that the $75 for a working bathroom in a hotel would be well worth it, IMO.

Our wings are not tired.
Indeed.
eta: that was to agree with sara a bunch of posts ago.
