It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Nobody got it. I felt like Xander. "I miss my board. They'd get it."

And we would most certainly say something.

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

Welcome back, Beverly.

I think I'm watching the last filmed ep of Daybreak. I am now sad. Then again, less bumming out than reading about the messed up Gay(e)s.

I don't want to think of Marvin Gaye as being messed up. I've already lost Miles Davis by knowing about his private life.

Had a good day today. Yoga. Shortbread. Pasta Papa. And a Very Smiley Grace.

Aww. Grinny Grace!

Happy mother's day indeed, Kat.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Aww, what a smiley girl!

I took Mom a large-print card, a box of chocolates, and some little girl hair accessories. Her hair has gotten so thin that regular combs and covered rubber bands and scrunchies just slide right out, so I took her lots of those woven chenille rings in the tiny size, some tiny "side combs" and some of the small-size pinchy clips with big handles. I combed out her hair and put it up for her. And then I sat with her at supper and cut up her food so she could eat it with the fingers of her left hand. She can't manage a fork with the cast on her right hand.

It was a nice visit.

The status is NOT quo.

Beverly! So nice to see you around these parts again.

Kat, Grace is adorable.

I called my mom and sent her an e-card with a note that a real card was on the way -- I didn't totally flake out, I'm just a little late. My dad and sister took her out to brunch.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

French request!

I need this bit of dialogue translated:

"What was that?"

"Nothing! Pierre just tripped and fell."

Thanks!

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

I need this bit of dialogue translated:

"Zut alors! Le Scarlet Pimpernel!"
"Il est toujours dans the last place you look."
