"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

There's a lot of pressure to go home now, from all quarters. If I had a buck for everytime I've answered, "Is she coming home soon?" I could pay for one day of her care.

But we need her to be as stable as possible and as least intensive as possible and we want to make sure that we know we can handle the care. Plus we need time to get the system rolling for special ed services, in home nursing, respite care and everything else that has to come in place. If we wait to bring her home after she is 3, then the social worker will have to help us with the school stuff we'll need.

Also, I'd rather bring her home when we are off for summer and when there are fewer infections running around.

“Not dead yet!”

Poor Johnny-boo-- all exhausted

because I'd also be F-ing the ever-livin' life out of him, but I'd C Gareth (Sorry honey!) and M David.

Barb, if there's anything left of him after I'm done, you're welcome to it. I'll try to keep him hydrated.

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

I think I'd have to C David, and that hurts. F John, whatever it took, and M Gareth. That's definitely a tough one.

Those are big steps and good plans, Kat.

That's the important thing anyhow...

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

What is wrong with you people? Did you know that GDL has a blues band? That he reads from gay sex manuals at music festivals? That he calls you "lovely" when you get his autograph?

(That last one might just be me.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It is impossible to chuck any of them.

Our wings are not tired.

I have a question for the hivemind.

I need to cull some books, both to make room and to get a little extra cash. Now that college is officially over, and any further schooling will likely not be English literature related, I can sell some of the English lit books. Some were horrendously expensive and I know I'll never read them again, so it's easy to throw them in the "sell" pile.

But what I really want to know: have any of you ever sold or gave a book away that you came to regret? What guidelines do you use for selling your books? (And I need to do the same thing with my cds and dvds...)

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I give away books if I don't think I'll reread them. I'm a big rereader.

But I figure that most books, provided they're not very specialized, are available for repurchase pretty cheap at places like half.com, so it's pretty easy to buy a new copy.

Right? Or borrow from the library?
