If only laying on the ground kicking and screaming were as comforting to a grown up as it is to a two-year-old.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Hugs, ~ma, and/or other warm thoughts for all who love Kara.
Connie, I think that's why I let myself get into political arguments on Twitter. I can let loose my venom in ways that don't involve sore throats and headache. Not that that would do a lick of good for you.

Trust my rage
Omnis, I tried plenty of fish recently. First guy I met seemed decent if young. He asked me for a picture so I sent one. I got back a picture of his penis. He said my sweaty gym picture turned him on. Obviously I blocked him and obviously that's not you; I just had to share my annoying story. (Seriously nothing in my conversation with that guy invited a penis pic. Nothing) a friend of mine she married a guy she met there so there is that.

Our wings are not tired.
Ewwwww. Yeah, apparently mixed results from that site as well as the others.
Parental musings follow. Yesterday my friend's son married in NY. This is a friend from birth, as in she lived 2 houses away and our moms were friends when they were pregnant. She was over-the-moon with joy and adores her new SIL. Of course I am so happy for her and the happy couple. This brought to mind my cousin who got all teary eyed and thanked me for being supportive when her daughter got engaged to her girlfriend (now wife).
In the past year or so I have often felt happy for couples, who because of marriage equality laws, are finally able to marry their loved ones. What I hadn't really thought about until yesterday was what a relief this must be to parents who have had to suffer seeing their children denied this right in the past, and present. My cousin spoke to me about the pain of seeing her daughter rejected and the hurtful things that "friends" put her through.
It is often harder to watch those we love endure pain than to endure it ourselves, and it often brings us the most joy to watch those we love find joy. This morning I am grateful that many parents, siblings, and friends are able to celebrate their loved ones getting married when so recently this was seemingly impossible.

smonster, I'm so sorry about Kara.
I have a few leads in NC, but this seems like a golden opportunity to move closer to family, so I'm focusing more on the Midwest.

My great-uncle on my father's side of the family passed away this week, and nobody called me. My mother read it in the paper and called me this morning. I can't even.

Oh sj, I am sorry for both the loss and the family ridiculousness.

smonster, Daisy, and Nora, sending all of you strength and love. This is such a hard time, and there's no way to soften the blow. I'm so sorry.
sj, sending you strength and love too.
