Yikes, Tim!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I know. I feel like I should have insisted he go to Urgent Care on Monday, but he's an adult who is my partner rather than my kid, so when he decided not to go, I wasn't going to badger him. (Plus I was pretty under the weather myself.)

And then the red swollen wound yesterday was sufficient to make Tim realize he made the wrong call. But...yeah. Puncture wounds are a whole different category than cuts (even deep cuts [which he gets at work as well (and, having just said that, now I'm REALLY glad he got his tetanus shot updated!)]).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Oh, hey, this is me: For people with depression, mad and sad may blur.

Clinically depressed people have a hard time telling the difference between negative emotions such as anger, guilt, and embarrassment, a new study shows.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes, Tim! -- crap, Liese already said that. I STAND BY MY YIKES.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yikes, Tim. Don't do that!

[I've been buried in the Feed books by Mira Grant this week (thanks, Sunil!) so my first reaction was total horror. But this is still nothing to mess around with.]

Actually, one of my friends on FB commented that this is how zombies start.

I can tell them apart when they're super magnified. Like, turned up to 10. But otherwise...yeah. They kind of blur for me, too.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I LOVE MAKING FIENDS! The pet is a giant, mutated hamster.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

From the lioness article:

Such masculine females likely occur when the embryo is disrupted, either at conception or while in the womb, he said by email.

For a second, I wondered just how embryos are disrupted by email and was very impressed with the interuterine web connections of lions.
