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.
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.

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.

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.

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?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I totally appreciate that "family don't end with blood (boy)". But in my mind, that's always meant that blood doesn't make anyone my family.
That's why I can have relatives I haven't spoken to in ten years and others who I might talk to, but only trivialities, and I don't engage with them at all. I don't give a flying fuck what the family tree says.
