I love the name Shane and am so delighted that the OB/hospital stuff is going to go smoothly now. YAY.
Smonster, I am sorry about your grandma. I hope the family drama doesn't take over the funeral plans.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Shane is indeed an awesome name.

Shane is indeed an awesome name.
Especially if they start running away at the park.

Smonster, I'm so sorry for your loss.
GC, yay new OB! I'm thrilled for you. And Shane is an adorable name.
Omnis, I'm bummed but not surprised given that institution's current budget situation...but I suspect the benefits and salary potential (not to mention job advancement) might be worth it...? (Yes, I'm hopeful!)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
{{smonster}} peace and ~ma to you and your family.

Post-toasties...
Well, crap. I got an email from my mom. A cousin, who is only 5 years older than me, passed away this morning. He had skin cancer that spread into his lungs. His mom's parents both died of the same thing. My poor aunt.
I don't need brackets or anything as I wasn't terribly close to him, but it still sucks and my heart is breaking for my aunt.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
ChiKat, so sorry for your family's loss.
First time turkey-cooking hivemind question: Ok, so I thought roasting a turkey was the same as roasting a chicken, only it takes longer. Turns out, some of the details are slightly different. For instance, frozen chickens are not usually collared together with a plastic thingy. The plastic thingy seems to be embedded into the turkey, so am I meant to take it out before cooking, or is it ok to leave it in there? Also, I found the packet, which I assume is the gibblets, and have removed it from the bird, but are there any other bits of bird that need to go away before roasting commences?
