Happy birthday Steph! hope you're having fun ... and that your gastric distress has gone away (and don't feel too bad about calling the doctor - I was once in the emergency room and someone in the next section was being told she was constipated ... and given instructions on how to deal with it).
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

Anyway, the second citation in the OED for my word was by...the very person who uses it in my story. Total researchgasm for me, though I have a feeling I'd draw nothing but blank stares if I tried to explain the utter coolness of this discovery to my coworkers during the chatty part of our staff meeting that's about to start.
Oh, goodness. That is SO cool. SO cool. That would make me more than happy myself.

I was just about to post that the rain finally stopped, but it seems to have started again. Apparently it was bad enough to pop up man hole covers all over the city. Oh, well. It's too late to go to the farmer's market anyway, and I doubt anyone showed up in this weather.

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

Would it make you CBD happy? No--don't answer that. There's no reason you should ever have to choose. Happy should be additive, not comparative. It's just cute to see you so...effulgent.
Happy birthday, Tep!

Happy b-day to Teppy! I love the Southern coast beaches... My family rents a house on Edisto Island (SC) every year and it's wonderful. Hope you're having a great and relaxing time!
Cutie kitten, Jars!

I have been on this island. My dad let them try to sell him a rental on the island, in exchange for a free weekend stay. I still have fond memories of Edisto. Pretty place.

I'm glad you guys find it cute. If it starts to get annoying, please tell me. I don't want to be that annoying girl. I just...I'm so happy right now. It's ridiculous.
Actually, he just e-mailed me. I had e-mailed him some news about something and said that my back was really hurting so I was going to take a pain killer and lie down. He e-mailed me back and asked if he should come over tonight and give me a back rub. Now, he has plans tonight. So, I said I'd love that, but only if he didn't change his plans. I don't want to be that girl either. But, um, I think he's got it as bad as I do. I mean, we have plans to see each other tomorrow.
