Oh lord. I saw my beloved, bottle raised by me at age 3, cat Sky get hit and stagger to me and die in front of my house when I was 9.
None of my cats will ever be outdoor cats for that reason alone.
Catching up on FNL. It KILLS me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A few seconds difference, and it could have been me. There was nothing that driver could have done to avoid it. It was so fast. Good god.
I'm sure I looked really weird at the pharmacy right afterwards.

Because books.
Oh, stuff like that always shakes me up. Like Sophia said, poor everyone.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Oy! on all the badness!
IOmeN, I had my second interview today. It included a spelling and proofreading test plus some design tasks. I also learned that a friend from my last temping gig also applied and now I am filled with trepidation. She is much younger and more recently in school than I.
It sucks to compete with friends for a job!
Still, I want and need it! If you guys could spare some job~ma and calm~ma, I would very much appreciate it!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
An email from ancestry.com tells me that 60% of Americans have "Revolutionary War roots." I'm not sure how they're defining that, but 60% seems really high to me. Anyone know where that number came from? (It could just be that my sample is skewed, but I remember a project in fifth grade where we had to interview an immigrant, and at least half the class interviewed a grandparent.)

If you go back in time long enough, everyone is related to everybody else.

I suspect it's the definition of roots that's suspect. So to speak. I'm doubting it's direct ancestry.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
It doesn't sound off to me that the bulk of Americans have at least one ancestor who was here before the 1780s.
