Whoo, Perkins!
And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

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

I know exactly why people can and should be able to refuse to be medicated but...damn, that right really needs to be taken a way in not too few instances. Careful about who you give it to, but it shouldn't be up to them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
VERY NICE, Perkins!

YAYS for Perkins!
Two Friday funnies for all of you (I'm a skippy skipper, so hopefully these haven't already been posted):

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Cash, that's terrible, and I'm so sorry. All hopes he's back in care and on his meds soon.
Perkins! YAY!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Cash, sending you much coping~ma. I'm so sorry.
But--Yay Perkins! That's great news!
And as for my confusing sentences, yeah, it was hyperbole. Meant I myself married at a rather advanced age, which I'm totally fine with except when I do the math of how old I'll be when X, Y, or Z happens.

YAY, Perkins!! That has to be one of the most freeing feelings in ever!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thanks all!
Don't let the mammo door hit your ass on the way out, Perkie-Pookie!
Except ita ! For her, I say thanks but also make my O really face.

Oh, Cash, that's horrible. I really hope that he does get the help he needs.
Perkins--woot!!!
In completely other news, I bit the bullet on deciding on a car last night. I'll be getting the Mazda3, gunmetal blue (light blue mixed with light grey), i Touring model. Problem is that even though the salesman told me last night I'd get the 0% financing, he called me back this morning to tell me that the finance manager looked at my numbers and my credit score is ten points below the cutoff for that financing, damnit! He just called back, and it looks like they can get me 3.5-3.9% instead, which is okay but means my monthly payments are going to be $30-40 more than I originally intended. Blargh. And, it won't be available until Monday. I asked if he could give me a loaner since my insurance is only covering my rental car through Saturday, and he's going to call me back with that info.
Even after I put my big downpayment down, pay off my credit card, school tuition for this fall, and get new glasses next month, I should stil have some money left over for my savings account. Add to that money I'm hoping to save up from my paycheck and some family money I'll be getting in December, I'm thinking that maybe I can finally swing my first trip abroad next summer!!
I was just talking to my mom and suggested that maybe she could accompany me to England and Scotland next August. I'd like to do 4-5 days in London, 1 day in Bath, take the train up to York and do that town, Edinburgh, and Hadrian's Wall for 3-4 days, and then rent a car and drive through the Highlands to Aberdeen and take a ferry up to the Orkney Islands for a few days before taking the train back to London to fly home.
