9 y.o. girl swallowed by sinkhole while running to first base.
I guess God wanted her to get thrown out at first base.
And we live to fight another day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So when I think of the hell I went through in the dorm, I also think of the people I helped by telling the story....
That's great.

I now have a temporary crown and have to chew on the left side of my mouth for two weeks. Also, no popcorn. Sigh. And I have to wait to eat anything until the numbness wears off so I don't chew on my cheek, and I'm really hungry (haven't had anything since 11:00 last night--late dinner). I've got a turkey sandwich waiting for me to get sensation in my right cheek, damnit!

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I can't imagine having sex while someone other than my partner is in proximity. Hell, I don't want to do it if someone else is in the guest room.
I feel the same now, but when in college I had a very different sense of boundaries.

This is so me. If it would have only come down to sex, I wouldn't be worried. But it's got anything to do with my current tact regime.

The early 80s at a small town college, away from the diseases of the big cities, were a fun place to be. And naivete wasn't bad either.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Hmm, I just read that tomorrow is National Something-On-A-Stick Day.
Food on a stick is AWESOME.

Kathy, my sister in dental numbness!!! I had to get 4 fillings today (2 were replacing old ones, but 2 were new), and it took TWO HOURS. My jaw is so sore that I feel like I got sucker-punched. The novacaine wore off about 2 hours ago, but all I want is a smoothie so that I don't have to chew.
Between the high co-pay for my physical therapy, and the many fillings I need in my teeth, by the end of April I will have spent over a grand on healthcare. (February 2009-April 2009, inclusive.) That's a fucking LOT for 3 months.
OTOH, my back is much MUCH better, and yesterday was my final PT visit (they gave me a t-shirt for "graduating"), and my teeth -- well, if I don't get them patched up now, I might not have them in my head for long, so it has to be done.
This slows the hell out of my plan to pay off my credit card, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
