Matt, what is your tag from? I know it, and can't place it, and it's making me nuts.
ETA: DUR, SPN! Thanks, brain.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

The tornado news is alarming.
A kid I used to babysit as an infant is now on Facebook. I think this makes me officially Too Old For Facebook.
I'm Facebook friends with two of them. One of whom is an actual adult now, the other one being my nephew.

In college, my friend Jody was engaged to Steve, and he hooked up with another friend, Sam, and she got pregnant. They've been happily married for almost 18 years now and J partnered with a woman and they have a child together, and all are friends. But it was a HUGE drama in our circle of friends my last year of college; J was my roommate and S & Sam(antha) were close friends.
The baby graduated high school today. Holy shit.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah. We're old.
And I can't look at the tornado info. You guys are gonna have to take this one for me. I did okay with my presentation on Japan disaster relief, but to be frank, my 9 Navajo students were more effective at raising money than the 250 people at church, including the church leadership. But anyway, between that and the SO's strep, and normal summer stressiness, I can't handle any additional disasters, so you guys gotta grieve them for me.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
A kid I used to babysit is some sort of assistant coach or trainer or something for Rutgers football. (I didn't babysit him as a baby, though -- his family moved in down the street from mine when he was in kindergarten and I was in sixth grade.)
