Congrats Perkins!
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Hey Frank, you at all interested in buying our house in Salem? Price has been knocked down to $289K. (just thought I'd put it out there!) Our timeline is flexible.

Awesome, Perkins!
I wouldn't mind doing some moving closer to my job (55 miles away), but I suspect it won't be happening real soon. Em (she'll become a teenager this summer, weird) really struggled to fit in socially and moving would be pretty devastating to her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Congrats, Perkins!
There's an old man here in the Miami airport that keeps shooting me dirty looks. I ain't done nothing but sit down, dude. I wonder if he can read my Xhosa shirt?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thanks all!
I am excited, and want to go out and buy all the things and have people fix all the things RIGHT NOW.
Instead, I have to go to work. I am going to sneak out early though to look at rugs and buy a refrigerator.

Gud, there's NO WAY Em will be a teen this summer!
I wish I'd remembered you had kids M's age. We should have had a playdate. Maybe this summer, we can arrange a waterpark outing or BBQ?
