Heh. Oh man.
This is why we humans like to think before we speak. Some of us, anyway.

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
Pshaw, Tep, everyone knows that's only famous people.

Two weeks away and a lot to catch up on!
Firstly, all the ~ma in the world to Drew and Pix. My thoughts are with you both.
Also, Steph, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Separate post to say that my holiday was awesome, if packed to the gills with doing stuff, which is why I didn't even try to organise a Buffista f2f (sorry Bostonistas!).
It was G’s 30th birthday, so we went to Fenway on the day, plus dinner out. There was also his mom’s birthday, a family dinner for his birthday, and a cookout for friends and family. Also, two weddings, three days on the Cape, a day in Salem, lots of hanging out with nephew and nieces. Also, my first experience of poison ivy, which, wtf nature? Why did you do that? You’re kind of an asshole.
I was so ready to be on holidays and I am so relaxed after it. Even the three hour trip to the office this morning because of a tube strike didn’t stress me out unduly. The only difficult parts of the holiday were knowing that we get to see G’s family so little, but there’s no practical way to see them more. Also, G’s grandfather is fading, and his family have made the decision to change him from nursing care at the home to hospice care, so our last visit to him was pretty upsetting for G. That said, his grandfather has been ready to go for a long time now and all the family there have accepted that. Again, living abroad comes with so many difficulties.

bah, got another email from our neighbors about our tenants. Much more reasonable and specific. I think I will not be telling Tom about this, he's just starting to calm down from the last situation.
I'm gonna hire a property manager to deal with this.

I went to the rhumetologist today. She was wonderful and thorough, and she is leaning more toward fibromyalgia than arthritis. More tests next.

I must go back to the doctor soon about my joint pain. I'm always complaining about it and rarely do anything for it except take ibuprofen.

Seska, info would be welcome.
