Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

It was. We missed the tamales which made me feel extremely tragic.

Keys are off to Miss T. She was adorable, talking talking talking up a storm.

I know having her mom home after over 4 years is a strain; her mom said as much. (Her mom was in a nursing/physical rehab place after a bad accident.) And her mom appears to be overcompensating for the years in situ missed. I'm going to have to make sure she comes over at least once a week with the focus not being totally homework- she's processing. I'm not trying to take the place of her mom at all, just give her a place where she's not being aggressively parented (for the best, if not ideal, intentions) but mentored, I guess. She's a sharp kid, she rationally seems to get what is going on, but she's also heading into teenagedom. We had a neat discussion about being self-aware and how selfishness can change meaning as you get older.

Hell, I suspect she'll make me appreciate teenagers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

Dude, does mac have books from Walter the Farting Dog series?

(I swear, I managed to corrupt my entire department. Everyone is buying them for either their kids or grandkids this year, based off my stories of how I warped D. Even my boss, for his grandsons.)
