Yay Tom!
Poor Mac! There but for the grace of... Oh hell. we were there last week. Passing you our bottle of get-through-it.
Kat - that sounds & looks awesome.
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

Happy Birthday, Lilybean!! Three, though? Really? Wow.
Yay, Tom!
Feel better, Mac.
I eated too much at Ruby Tuesday. And I even brought stuff home. I feel myself slipping slowly into a food coma. Not that slowly, actually.

Yay Tom!
I think the best of all worlds is store that sells snacks, liquor, live bait and ammo. 'Cuz then you're pretty much set for the weekend.
There used to be a store here that had a sign advertising "Greeting Cards and Ammunition." A friend called it the "Hello and Goodbye" store.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I still haven't done my taxes. I made sure to buy a PC this weekend so I'd have no excuse not to, but sitting upright is wholly unappealling.
Horizontal and feeling sorry for myself. I should probably get back to at least the horizontal part of it--try and put a kibosh (is that what that means? never used it before) on the whiny thing.
Happy birthday to Lillian, and congrats to Tom. Oh, and hugs to sickie Mac. Has he seen The Princess Bride yet?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
ita, you should try to stay horizontal while filing for an extension.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, how do I make the burning stop on my fingers after chopping pickled jalapenos? Soap and water didn't do it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Dip them in a little bit of milk? Or baking soda and water? Not sure, but it seems like those might work.

I knew there was something helpful from the conversation about Matt's mouth! I just couldn't think of it. The milk helped, thanks.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm back from my blind date. We went to MOMA, and it went very well, so yay!
Right on, Scola!

Tomorrow's topic of discussion: Jilli's left eyeball!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Happy birthday Lilybean!
