I'm getting the pig!

That sounds sucktastic, meara. I hope you're at least able to sleep on the flight for a bit.

Yay, ita! Congrats!

Boo E. What a dick. Still, I'm glad he's given Kelly countless great reasons to move on without even so much as a glance behind her. Much better to find out now.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

My advice to her has been to not engage him or his family unless necessary to stand up for herself.

And lest anyone think I'm posting any of this behind her back, she knows I've been sharing this with you. Some of you have met him and he has been a piece of our family for over 5 years.

To add to his AU, he gave his "ex-girlfriend" an name other than Kelly. How did he explain her at his boot camp graduation? Or her visit last October? Or the care packages she has sent him?

To top it all off, I'm an idiot of a mom. We have had theater tickets for tonight for a couple of months. We were all looking forward to "escaping" into the theater. We all knew the show was South Pacific. CJ even saw it in SF recently. Did any of us, especially me, consider the topic/themes of the show and suggest Kelly sit this one out? Noooooooooo. She sobbed through the first half and we left at intermission.

GRRRRRR. Now I check my email and find my boss sending me a bunch of requests for shit...from my visit today...that she didn't send until about 5pm. Dude. WTF? No, that's not helpful, and no, I can't specially review those things, and no, I can't make you copies of those super important documents. I had already left the place, and was supposed to be boarding a flight.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Suzi. I agree with everyone, he's a douchenozzle. I just wish that fact made the pain of his betrayal go away.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, meara -- I hope you made it home, finally!

Sounds like a good visit, sara. And I hear you about keeping in touch. I'm terrible about being in contact with my father's side of the family, and regret it already.

sara, I'm glad you got to spend time with Carol.

meara, your travels sound like travails. Hope you at least get to sleep in today.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

He changed his voicemail to say "Dr. Asshole", he had medical books lying around his apartment when she came over, he would tell her every December and May that he had exams so he wouldn't see her for a while

At some point, you have to wonder if it wouldn't have been easier just to apply to med school...

CONGRATULATIONS, ita!! Way to job!
