Jen [link] Except this one was lovingly made by a friend for my b-day. It's vanilla cake with chocolate frosting & sprinkles.

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.

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

Makeup for Jesse.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

A card for ita.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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!

I think meara needs that on her refrigerator, stat.

Once, maybe, I had sex with a third party in the apartment. And the door wasn't precisely closed. But it was one time. I've been fairly strict about living alone as much as possible.

I just found out that the water pump on my car has sprung a leak. And needs to be replaced to the tune of $600. ARGH.

Are cake balls just round petit fours?

I felt bad that I was so relieved that my mother admitted after the trip here for my cousin's funeral that she's really not up to traveling any more. She and my sister have been agitating for a trip, but I've been dragging my feet because I knew that I would have to do *everything* including shlepping the luggage, while being blamed if anything went wrong.

The cake is doughier.
