True. We aren't all living in the same world.

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

Yeah, it's the gun lobby that seems to having the Not Of This World logic.

We will not be moving to Switzerland, he'll be working at home, I think. He will make several trips to Geneva during the year, so I'll join him for one, at least.

Eat raclette! That's all I got, but that is what I'd do if I were in Switzerland.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Congrats to DH, Sparky! Though I don't envy your family the logistical nightmare.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, that sounds kind of best-of-both-worlds!

Sparky, I think you should eat some Swiss chocolate to celebrate! Raclette ... you'll probably have to wait to enjoy it. I had some (in the U.S.) and remember it as yummy but a bit smelly.

This will be easy compared to the last job, I think. No more 8 week trips!

Because books.
Geneva! That's very cool.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Congrats and raclette, Sparky! Glad it's going to be easier than the last job. Eight-week separations with a toddler are brutal.
If we can't have a Buffista Island, maybe we could start with an attractively priced pirate ship?
HELLS YES PLEASE PLEASE?
Also, Hec, I don't think we dare show those pictures to Matilda, who yearns for a pet squirrel. Her heart will break to bits with envy and longing (unless I have already shattered it with my inept hair-fixing technique).
