Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Sparky,

I have been flipping out about this for an hour or so. I know people there and were emailing back and forth when I heard the news.

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

Oof. I heard that on the radio and was hoping there was no reason for anyone buffista-adjacent to be there. I hope it resolves swiftly and safely.

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

Timelies all!

It's a bit weird to be the last person in the lab on a day when I was the second person to arrive. :shrug: It's friday.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Sending ~ma, Sparky.

I'm waiting for KCD to flip out. He hasn't paid his share of certain CJ related expenses for over a year now. He pays the regular child support no problem, but the unusual stuff has been a struggle - though it didn't used to be. We had made verbal agreements and I have the divorce paperwork.

I just sent an e-mail detailing it all out, calculating the numbers a couple of different ways and right now I don't care how much he pays, but come on man...this is your son. I'm not asking you to pay for anything crazy - karate tournaments, testing fees, school fees, dental costs over insurance. Dude should be happy that the wisdom teeth costs were less than $200 when our original quote was over $1,000.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesus Christ, you guys. I called for a cab that never came! Stupid Friday afternoon in the rain. Luckily, it occurred to me to call into the meeting, but it was not at all the same.

not your mom's socks.

Jilli that reminds me that the local upscale thrift store has a black and white striped silk capelet - I saw it yesterday but didn't note price or size. Should I fix that?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

But he's my dad, and I love him, and I just have to let it be what it is. And, yeah, like you said, try not to feed him certain cues.

This is the definition, in some ways, of family. I will never be what my parents want either. And Grace will always be someone different than I envisioned. I never wanted a son at all. But still we love all of these people, foibles and all.
