Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

OMG, I have BevMo now. I should totally go hit up a BevMo.

in response to the Poehler/Arnett split

That actually makes me sad. I wanted those crazy kids to make it. Clearly they were more together than I.

I am sorry we picked a not ideal bag, Lee.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

ita, I heard from my sister. She didn't have a lot of info about the procedure but said she'd had patients who had good results. But she also confirmed your initial reaction that it was a big hurdle to overcome. In other words, it is a big deal but it does seem to have real benefits.

Aw, shit. My best friend from high school (we're not tight anymore, but I keep up with her on FB) just announced she has breast cancer. Jesus. She's only 37! She had kids before 30 like you're supposed to! WTF, world?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

t kneejerk response

She had kids before 30 like you're supposed to!

Um...

eta: this kind of sounds like blaming the cancer patient, even though I know the statistic support it.

and I should add that I am sorry about your friend, meara, of course.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm sorry, meara. Fuck cancer. It's so damned unfair.

You said that botox isn't worth it--that implies some sort of a trade, right? What are you giving up, in exchange for the effects of botox?

Oh! Not worth the potential risk. But I know that risk is almost nil, so, really, not worth the anxiety I'd be having until the immobility wore off.

What, "relatively-minor"? Oh, I saw it, missy.

I mock you with my editing pants off! It gave me a rebellious naughty thrill to put that hyphen in there. No, I mean it, it did.

I am pretty sure that blaming the cancer patient is a bad thing even when it's something like lung cancer that we know it tied to smoking. It's more like, "FUCK CANCER!" because we are all so hurt by this pretty random mutation. I don't think I should be judged by a cellular process for the fact that I think I am better off not raising a child or several. Really. And I don't think I am here. Cancer really sucks. It sucks if it is something known to happen sometimes due to your choices and when it isn't. It just sucks.

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

DUDE. I CLOSED THE WINDOW BEFORE HITTING POST.

Anyway--I read meara's post as "runs three miles a day, eats salad, has heart attack anyway"--whatchya gonna do?

Thanks for the feedback, Burrell. I'll have to precisely plan stuff. Maybe tomorrow I can get the insurance coverage info.

I cannot imagine all the shoes that are Fluevogs.

And associated brilliance you have now missed. Can you feel your life disenrichening? It's totally a thing.

I am wearing Captain American boxers (men's natch, because women don't seem MATTER TO SOME PEOPLE
