I'm losing facial expression. It's not good as a sign of depression level.
I am thrilled the Rangers are winning and no expression.
Thinking of ita and long distance hugs for scola.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

There are a ton of my Firstname Lastnames running around. One owns a cranberry bog. One is a Presbyterian Pastor. Several have mugshots. Half of the first page of Google search results are me, though.

Ah, sweetie. Explore your options for help. I've only recently discovered I lose 'face' during certain hormonal thingamagigs. And if I'm truly neutral, my face is kinda mean/angry, even if I am not.
Fond memories of seeing art exhibits and snarking in DUMBO with msbelle, Jesse and Tom. Think that was the only time I've been in NYC other than transiting through.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Today has been ludicrous on a number of levels. Including emergency drugstore appointment and prescription for me, but fuck my life. My mother is recovering nicely and she's starting to believe the (true) nice things we're saying about her. I think she's the most popular person in the hospital. They had to bring in extra furniture.
Unrelatedly, my sister is trying to get me to mark anthropology papers for her. My father asked to see one, and gave it back after one sentence. Problem is, I can fail this chick with no actual knowledge of the Kayapo. It's that bad. I feel so bad, I refuse to mark up the paper.
Thanks again for the support, guys. Thanks always.

oh msbelle, much love to you
much love to you too. ita. I am amused at the idea that you travel all the way to Jamaica to mark papers. Had I only known! I have papers you could mark right here in LA.

HA! I was so thinking this! As ever, I have papers to grade.
Tom, I am so sorry you have to deal with the suck of your childhood but I so admire your strength and bravery in doing so.

FYI - the new season of "Work of Art" on Bravo has a contestant on there from Malaysia who was born Deaf.

Elk are out again tonight. Further off so I can hear them but not see them. Didn't help that I knocked down firewood trying to carry my stool out to the deck. I left the Flip running out there. Will check again later.

Elk! I want elk in my yard. The closest I get to wildlife is the occasional skunk smell on a pre-dawn run, or the turkeys when I visit my folks out in Contra Costa.
ita, it sounds like you're getting the full family experience, and I love that your mom is so popular. Glad to hear she's recovering well.
My cousin's daughter made us a wonderful (and totally unhealthy) jambalaya for dinner. NOM.
