Good luck Msbelle!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Bad sinus headache. The dog walked me this morning.

Freaking out about my mother's visit. Mostly that she'll hate my apartment and my whole life and demand I come home where everything is safe and in neutral colors.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe you're crying on the inside, Jesse.

MAYBE I AM. That should still not affect my eyelids, though, right??

That seems unlikely? But I don't know your mother....

No one knows my mother. She's exactly like the old school snuffelupagus.

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

Allyson, can I meet your mother?

Jesse, maybe it's just the inside of your eyelids that are swollen.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The potential for an avocado tree OF MY OWN is pretty much the only thing that could ever tempt me to move out West.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Allyson, my mother is basically scared of people who aren't upper-middle-class white Jews who decorate the house in tasteful neutrals. So I feel your pain.

Heh, my mom is coming in a few weeks and I am pretty sure that she will react in a similar fashion. However, my feeling is that her freakout will pale in comparison to the one she had when she found out our house in Salem did not have a bathroom on the first floor of the house.
