AND the one person in my company whose presence I cannot abide was there and made a "joke" about people getting cancer and then getting married to get their spouse's health insurance.
It's so easy to find someone to marry between chemo treatments.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Happy birthday, tommy! You're much beloved, and we will all make sadface until you can contrive some way to be here all the time again, as is right and proper.
Aeryn is beautiful. She has the most absolutely, utterly, swooningly gorgeous, intent, thoughtful eyes for such a wee little boo! And the rest of her is all rolly, now.

Happy Birthday, Tommy! I'm sorry we will see less of you here!
As for me, I ran this morning and got my hair cut and now I'm paying bills and doing laundry.
I ran up in the hills and I was surprised to see quite a number of people gathered along the road up there, as though they were fleeing the tsunami. We're in the East Bay, but nobody ever said anything about Oakland being at risk, and it's not like you can see anything from up there--there's too much fog over the city anyway. Seemed kind of silly.
That said, I just saw some photos of the quake and tsunami in Japan, and holy cow, it's awful. Dana, don't look: [link]

Nods. Lots of men told me the baldness and inability to do much of anything was a HUGE turn on.

Happy birthday, Tommy!
Kathy, I'm glad the PTO is going to work out.

I'm saving myself for the perfect carcinoma.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Just saw pictures of the earthquake. Damn.
This one was worse than the one that hit Japan in the 1920's, right?

Happy birthday, Tommy!
Weekend plans: dancing tonight. Tomorrow involves brunch, selling stuff at a vintage clothing boutique, and hoping my thrifting mojo holds out long enough to find a cheap ivory wedding dress to turn into a skirt. Sunday is doing family stuff with Dad.

Definitely higher on the Richter scale, but due to vastly superior building methods, the death rate is going to be only a fraction of that earthquake.
