No apologies. Sorry to say that we are all encountering more of this lately and it is more than a little upsetting.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Thanks, Laura. Facebook keeps reminding me how long it has been since I have seen you at the Providence F2F. I miss you! You must come visit and meet ltc.

Yes, sj. I am still in Florida because my mom hasn't been well enough to travel and it doesn't make a lot of sense for me to go north when she can't. Brendon really enjoyed our time together in Providence with you and TCG and wants to meet ltc too. I denied him having a daughter and he has baby girl envy. He always wanted the opportunity to glare at dates coming to pick up his daughter and it isn't quite as much fun with sons.

I miss Brendon too. I'm sorry about your mom.

I'm so sorry you had to deal with that, sj.
Laura, I'm glad you had an amazing dinner.

ltc is in bed. We have eaten snack dinner and I am drinking sangria.

BTDT, well, not the mom thing obvs, because as Ginger might say the star has not risen in the east. Sadly, the lesson I got from it is less "happy and respectful reconciliation" and more "You can live without more people than you might believe possible." but I still don't think I would take it back.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
SJ - I just wished people had some level of manners - deliberately provoking someone is not dinner table conversation.
Teppy - that sounds like fin
and we will be happy from afar that buffistas meet again

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I am adulting like a mofo today. I went to Awesome Doctor to deal with my unending IBS, and once my insurance approves it, I have a new medication to try (fingers crossed it works [I missed seeing Hillary Clinton AND Elizabeth Warren for this doctor's appointment, so the drug had BETTER work]). And then I made an appointment to get 2 freaking crowns on my crappy teeth. And I also need to go pick out frames for my bifocals before Friday, because our insurance changes on Friday.
That's a lot of damn money, too. I can't remember what dollar amount I need to hit in order for it to be worthwhile to itemize medical expenses, but I'ma start saving all my receipts.

Fingers crossed on the new med, Teppy.
My doctor's visit last week to discuss my sleep issues resulted in no real new information. I snore but do not have sleep apnea. We are checking my thyroid levels again. And I will be getting a referral to a sleep doctor to do a more formal sleep study. So, I'm waiting for the referral.
