Hah. My roommate is waiting on hers (it's backordered) and I'm jealous, but trying to remind myself I like my oldschool kindle fine...
I'm in your spot. Not sure how long I'll hold out.
You know, my big sister could really beat the crap out of her. I mean, really really.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
What we Americans go through to pick a president is not only crazy and unnecessary but genuinely abusive. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent in a craven, cynical effort to stir up hatred and anger on both sides. A decision that in reality takes one or two days of careful research to make is somehow stretched out into a process that involves two years of relentless, suffocating mind-warfare, an onslaught of toxic media messaging directed at liberals, conservatives and everyone in between that by Election Day makes every dinner conversation dangerous and literally divides families.

That's exactly the way I feel, le nubian.
Frank, I'm so sorry. Wishing all of you strength and good time together.
Scrappy, that's a great thing to hear. Finding the right doctor is one of the hardest parts.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Wow, that workout just totally fried my brain. I couldn't figure out how to open my browser for a moment there. But in good news, I'm now less cranky.
Which is good because I'm about to head into the start of our brass program: all brand new trumpet students. Oy vey.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I'm sorry, Frank.
