Thanks! It's the SO's attitudes, really. He looks at the world like it's this amazing place and at everything in it like it's this wild adventure, and well, it kinda rubs off. So you get the adrenalin rush from not rolling the wagon at 75 miles an hour on the highway, but then you get the hilarity at using half a coconut husk to dig with. (Cue African swallows joke.) He's pretty awesome.
I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
So sick. Congested. Wheezing. No energy. Possible fever. Need more Sudafed. Would adore a TJ care package. Wish I could sleep.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Suzi makes a good point. There are many buffista who live far from TJs and probably need a care package now and then.

Good thing Cass and I both live across the street from TJs! (er, in different cities)
Sadly, tummy is with Liese's right now--not sure if it's the headache or something I ate, but ick.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I would be happy to help poor TJless buffistas with the occasional care package.

Trust my rage
Peppermint jo-jos and those chocolate almond salt things are what I'm dying to try. And those tiny peanut butter cups are amazing.
eta: I don't want to be too pushy since I'm on the receiving end, but is there maybe a way to organize so the TJ goodness is fairly distributed.
And I like the idea of a TJ F2F in Albuquerque with Liese.

Because books.
Oh my god, the tiny peanut butter cups are so delicious.
Stephanie, what everyone else said about having your back. I'm glad you know we're here, and we care.
Poor Suzi! Hot tea with honey and a shot of whiskey maybe?

Do they still make the UFO chocolate mint things? I could eat an entire bag in one sitting; hence, I have not bought them in yonks.
When I finally get my ass back to DC, I will totally join the TJ care package bucket brigade.

Yes, yes, feel better Suzi. I seem to only be able to make one topic posts in Natter today.

Trust my rage
And thanks again, Amy and everyone else. I think the there is just this sort of rabbit-hole, what is going on, plus the scary uncertain future and it leads to a lot of self-questioning on my part.
