( continues...) those of you who donated for my sister's iGEM project - [link] - thank you! They've done amazingly well and I couldn't be more proud of her: [link]
And that's it. Now it's dinner time, and after it I hope to be back here more often.
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Shir, thank you! It sounds like you had quite a year. Tons of ~ma that your 30th year treats you well.

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.
Shir, it's always wonderful to see you around here! I hope your dad continues to get better. May there be healing for his heart and for yours. I'm so sorry for all the losses and horrors you have been through. Hugs, or whatever warm thoughts are comforting to you.
sj, forgetting a few days worth of clothes but remembering the baby sounds like successful parenting to me.

Haven't watched AoS yet, so I can't go into Marvel, so I'll post this here.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
So, I'm in this play, and it's more than a little of a clusterfuck. Just a mess from beginning to end. The amount of tongue-biting I've been doing is fucking epic, you guys.
So, there's this guy in the play, like 23 years old. He was hugely excited yesterday because I speak media nerd, which I was generally happy to go, although, well, he #notallmen 'd me during the conversation. I did call him on it, because no.
Tonight, he dropped 2 lines (note: we do the play with scripts in hands). The other two of us in the scene got scolded by the director (which is really rich when we haven't gone 5 minutes--with 1 dress rehearsal left--without him stopping us). So, backstage, kiddo starts telling us that we have to keep going when things like that happen. And I said, "Dude. You don't get to lecture us when you were the one who fucked up. Just don't."
So, of course, at the END of rehearsal, he says, "well, I'm really exhausted because I had to take my mom into the ER today for pnuemonia." Which, you know, I feel you, but that's some dirty pool.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
(((Shir))) A hell of a year, indeed. Much love to you and all your family, and if your pursuit of an MLIS abroad sends you in the US you know you've got safe places to land all over.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
And, now that I'm actually awake, wow, Shir, that's quite the year! Much ~ma to you and yours.
