Steph, I'm so sorry about The Alchemist. Never been there, of course, but it felt familiar and it's such a huge loss.
Aimee, I read your post early this morning and I just wanted to agree with everyone else about grief and you being a convenient target.
I love the picture of Shane and his mommies. And despite the tape, or maybe because of it, you both look beautiful. Shane, despite the tears, is a cutie and I think the tears sort of add to the overall picture.
My highlight of the day was that I had a very involved ultrasound due to my age. I have like, the lowest risk rating ever for problems, and I got to see the baby's anatomy in great detail. I think my favorite part was seeing his tiny radius and ulna - still squishy but perfectly formed. He was very active and I loved seeing him kick and move around, despite not feeling much. Oh, and yes, he's a boy! I didn't care too much but I had a dream a few weeks ago that left me just feeling like he was going to be a boy, so it was nice to confirm that.
Update on my dad. Cardiac test came back negative for a heart attack. He has been released from hospital. But the CT scan showed a blotch in his upper right lung, which apparently been there awhile, so I don't think it's a big deal. No clue what that is about. That's the update. Thanks for the ~ma. Looks like it worked.
Yay for a boy, Stephanie!
{{{Aims}}} I meant to say I'm sorry for the difficult situation with you and your friends. I hope things improve, but if they don't it might be the best to put some distance between you.
Tomorrow I'm going to Sepherion, hopefully this will get me a job of some kind. They sent me an assessment which I had trouble with because it uses a version of Windows I haven't used before. And the stupid typing test where you can't backspace so I did badly on that. I don't get the no backspace thing, I'm faster when I know I can correct my mistakes.

Me too, definitely. Good luck!
Much ~ma for Taz, poor kitty! May this be the end of his troubles.
Argh...Tep, that makes me even angrier about reading Ron Paul bitching about flood insurance...somebody should shove him in a leaky barrel somewhere, is what! Hope your bro rebuilds stronger than ever.
All the ~ma for Taz I can muster!!! Get better, kitty.
Oof, half hour to go and I am done. Annoyed with B right now b/c I set up a meeting at his request with my boss and he hasn't confirmed, and now my boss prefers to do it tomorrow. His tough luck if that doesn't work.
I had a pot roast poboy for lunch and it was nom. But now I'm hungry again.
~ma to Taz.
(Is it terribly wrong that I keep thinking "well, now we'll just have a cat who *really* deserves the name Switch!")
