I hate when people are late for my meetings, especially when they're on my team and outsiders are on time. Hmmph. I also hate when that means the meeting runs late.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That sounds delicious (ETA: DJ's lunch, not ita's late running meeting). You win. What's a cakeball?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I will say I'm happier to be thought of as Wonder Woman than a cowgirl.

Well, sure.

I'd feel better about it if my mom were an experienced traveler, or at all comfortable with public transportation, or if I were interested in genealogy. But no.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
MiL called to let us know that FiL's tour group was safely evacuated from Tunisia before they closed the airports...unfortunately I'd been too wrapped up with new baby stuff to even realize there was anything that serious going on there! So now I'm catching up on the news and feeling retroactively incredibly relieved that they were able to get everyone out before the coup/state of emergency.

I'm pretty sure that's a card for meara.
ita, I see what you did there.
Also, wanting to do your own vacation for whatever reason does not make you a bad daughter. Shockingly, sometimes adults want to make and carry out their own plans! Independent of their parents!
