'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

ETA: I can see that this looks like a cruel joke. I should have separated the two posts. Will edit.

Pfft. If I put everything in one post, so can you.

I'm sorry, BT. This kind of drama is so difficult, and you with a peacemaker's heart, it must be extra-hard on you.

See, I usually say 'conflict-avoidant', but I like your phrasing better. It did make it difficult trying to turn him around. (There was one week in the middle of it where I got no sleep at all most nights.) I think I'm better off than most of my siblings though. I have a pretty extensive family life of my own. (Plus, frankly, the counselling I went through over the breakup of my first marriage has helped with this situation too.) My youngest brother and sister, who are both pretty sensitive, are particularly hard hit.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hi Toddson!

billytea, I'm glad that you and your siblings have drawn some boundaries, and I'm so sorry they were necessary. Happy birthday to you.

I am ragetastic for no discernable (sp?) reason, except possibly because I forgot to take my Zoloft yesterday. I was fine until, of all things, my coworker changing how we do our timesheets made me flip out like a mammal (not in her presence). And then I nearly flipped out like a mammal at my drunk roommate who would. not. shut. up.

RAWR. I am going to bed. There may be Xanax involved.

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

Oh bt, I am so sorry for the excess family drama. It is a good thing that you have the abundance of joy of your immediate family to balance things. Hug them extra tight.

Laura said it well.

Definitely a happy belated birthday and I am so glad you have such a happy family with Biyi and Ryan. You deserve so much joy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

oh bt, I am making sympathy noises over here. I'm sorry.

I'm glad you had a good party though.

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

aw, bt, I'm sorry for the family drama, but glad you have such a wonderful family of your own.

It was an awesome party. Props to my sister and her husband, who hosted it and did the food, and my youngest brother, who organised the alcohol. (I just had one glass of wine, but it was a very nice glass.)

This morning's meeting has left me completely demotivated.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy belated birthday, bt. I'm sorry to hear about the family drama. Being your father makes it especially hard, but thank goodness you have your siblings.

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

Being your father makes it especially hard

Yes, truly. There's a reason the tradition is to be your grandparent.

There's even songs on how to be your own grandpa.
