What is a searhorse?
I just found out that in The DaVinci Code, Mary Magdalene is Jesus's wife. Didn't that already happen in The Last Temptation of Christ?
I'm eleven hundred and twenty years old! Just gimme a friggin' beer!

When I wasn't in meetings or being a ruiner of lives, I spent most of my day being tortured by migration. I went the grocery store and pharmacy. I answered a bunch of emails and comments, and helpfully directed some people to job postings.
I think I'm officially done being a responsible grown up for the day. Now it's time for scotch and an episode of Ultraviolet.

So I got home in time to get a call from my mother, who read me the riot act for "sneaking around behind our back and committing your parents to a nursing home," end quote. That was fun. I'm getting better at it, though: I just said I understood her worries and loved her and didn't let my dad correct her misstatements.
We're just going to have to roll with this for a while. But at least they're in a more supportive environment, and Dad gets to have more social contact with people.
Plus, tomorrow or Friday there will be haldol. Oy.

You'll get through today and tomorrow and the days after. And she's in the best place for her and you.

So, uh, hi!
Anyone remember me?
I used to post sometimes. Then I did 2 back-to-back ship contracts that were a bit overwhelming, but I am going home on Sunday! And I have a surplus of internet minutes I need to use up, and I remembered that I literally hadn't posted here in over a year, which is no good. You all are delightful.
So on that note, I'm probably going to be around more!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Anyone remember me?
YES. Welcome home!

Zuisa! Welcome back! I hope when you get home you have a chance to tell us about your travels, I bet they were interesting!!

They have been absolutely amazing. My brothers won't be around when I get home, so I'll nothing to do all day but sit on the internet for a couple of weeks. I will be able to provide sickeningly lengthy and detailed stories about all my travels!
Right now I'm amusedly panicking about the customs declaration sheet I'll have to fill out on the plane when I fly home. There's that little box that will ask me what countries I've visited on my trip, and I think I'm going to need to attach a separate sheet. I've been to so many places. I'm incredibly lucky.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Over a year, zuisa? I *refuse* to believe that, not just because I feel I'm sitting in the same place wearing the same clothes as when you last Nattered. Doesn't, maybe, speak the best of me.

A seahorse? It's the fish in the picture. You know, this fish.
