And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh, and in SERIOUSLY BROOKLYN WHAT THE FUCK news, that rash I have may actually be German measles.

Fucking overprivileged ignorant anti-fucking-vaxxers.

(It could also just be a weird viral reaction to the antibiotics I was on last week, but apparently it looks just like "textbook German measles" Which she "really didn't expect to see!" So yay me, I'm so surprising, I get diseases we should have wiped out before I was born. Fortunately I was vaccinated as a baby, so I probably won't get anything worse than a rash because I do have some latent immunity. And thank fuck my kids are fully vaccinated with fancy modern vaccines that work better than the ones they were using in the 70s.)

Because books.

Holy shit, Jessica. WTF is right.

And oh my god, I loved "The Rose" when it came out, and played my 45 until it was worn out.

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

So I asked R to play music at my funeral, and he's still having the freak out. I thought I'd deftly balanced it by offering to officiate at his wedding, but apparently I didn't bury the lede deep enough.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good lord, Jess!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Damn, Jessica.

Our wings are not tired.

And once again, Jessica reminds me of why I so often proclaim that I hate people. Not you guys, or some other guys, of course, but the REST!

And thank goodness you've been vaccinated, as well as the kiddos. And I hope E?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

If Hayden or erika predecease me, I'm obviously going to honor them with the Pogues' "The Body of an American" as is right and proper for any Wire fan.

I've told JZ I want the Pogues "If I Should Fall From Grace With God."

If I should fall from grace with God
Where no doctor can relieve me
If I'm buried 'neath the sand
Where the angels won't receive me

Let me go, boys Let me go, boys
Let me go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry

Bury me at sea
Where no murdered ghost can haunt me
If I rock upon the waves
No Corpse shall lie upon me

It's coming up three, boys
Keeps coming up three, boys
Let them go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That sucks, Jess.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jessica,

are you fucking kidding?

Is there reason to believe it might be german measles (as in, has the physician seen them recently)? It seems like a remote possibility. and fucking scary...


Amy - Mar 10, 2012 1:55:19 pm PST #26153 of 30001
Because books.

What's scary is that Aeryn is only a year old (plus some). So if this had been last year ...
