Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Glad you're OK, amyth.

Glad to hear all is well. Now just stop bleeding.

And as far an places to get injured go, getting out of a hot tub in France is not too shabby!

I am about to go get a massage. I hope an hour is enough!

I cannot believe Al Davis passed away today. Beau is a HUGE Raiders fan.

What a week.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I cannot believe Al Davis passed away today.

Whoa, I kinda thought that would never happen, somehow.

Oh ita. I'm so sorry about your mom and your car. I've not been on the board much this week or I would have said something sooner. (On an amusing side note, autocorrect just turned my attempt at "said something" to "sir Thor.". Um?) ND is extremely good at finding cars and will stalk them for you--if you want help, he's a good resource.

It's hard to meara on a phone. I should get my butt out of bed and get my laptop.

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

ND, insent with parameters. Thank you so much.

My mother was all "Aren't any of your internet friends men? You know how they like to talk about cars."

She was in much better spirits last night than before. My sister, on the other hand, is on the brink of total collapse. She's been running at 150% since she heard the news. She's been digesting all the doctor's information, disseminating the news to friends and family, and generally waiting on Mummy hand and foot.

She even set up a Skype video call so I could see Mummy in person, and she was standing there stroking our mother's hair.

This is so terribly hard on her. I really hope it doesn't get worse. When she implodes, she really implodes. I'm not sure I know how to be there for her. Her relationship with my father will be strongly tested. They're much more contentious, but Daddy has been stellar during this as well. I feel vaguely useless.

Thank you guys so much for the well wishes and support. It really makes a huge difference. It's mostly what's keeping me from being a complete basket case.

Huh. Now I need to look up the etymology of basket case. Can't be anything good.
