Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Our wings are not tired.

Jesse, sleep however late you want to. I order you. And if anyone at your job gives you shit, give them mine and Vortex's number and let them choose their death.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

They could choose cake!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I also can't get over how great the Somerville police were -- no nice and engaged and involved. Multiple officers stopped by the house, the assistant chief or whatever drove into Boston and gave flyers to the National Guardsmen setting up for the 4th, etc, etc.

That is really good to hear. The support or lack you get from people in situations like this can make a huge difference.

So good to read the happy news this morning. ~ma to you and your family, Jesse.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Excellent good news!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hello, Shir! Jesse, yes, sick day! You need it.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Hi, Zen!

(I've mostly lurked ~40% Natter and ~80% of Bitches the past week and didn't post until this very morning, but I think it's an improvement from barely lurking here at all. I also have too way much going on right now, to the point where I don't even know where and how to start posting about my life here again. So meanwhile, I lurk, cheering y'all from a safe distance).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I slept really well last week, and will go in to work at the normal time, because it is way easier for me to follow my regular routine than not. And my office is air conditioned. It was FREEZING in the ER last night, but I actually didn't mind, because I had been so hot and sticky. Nevermind my father, of course.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Which reminds me, with 90s predicted for the next couple of days, it's time to get the ACs installed.

(I got some "new" ones last year, from my aunt's beach house -- before Sandy, because they were anticipating renovating and putting in central air...)

Jesse, I'm so glad to hear that he is home, and you have had some sleep. Also, grateful for everyone who looked for and helped you find him!
