smonster,
that was just adorable! I am glad you said what you did about it, because without prep, I would have thought it was a horror film short. The car antics put me right on edge, and that's with the expectation it was going to be schmoopy.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

Burrell, I'm so sorry. Tons of ~ma to your sister and to you.
My uncle, the one whose lung collapsed last year and has been in and out of the hospital since then, is now back in with another lung infection. It sounds pretty bad. Any ~ma you can spare for him and form my aunt who has been having a difficult time with all of this would be very much appreciated.

I'm impressed with how professional that video looks, smonster!!

Damn these diamond shoes and their tightness. My grocery delivery is 45 minutes early, and TCG isn't home yet. I've been doing errands all day and can barely move. I don't want to put them away, but they're perishable.

Put away the frozen stuff likely to melt (ie, firget the frozen peas and cheese ravioli) and raw meat. The rest can stay in the hallway.

I did that, and even put the frozen broccoli away too. The rest is scattered around the living room waiting for TCG, who is on his way home now. I also put the meatloaf in the oven way later than I intended to. The house is a mess and my father-in-law is coming by tomorrow, so I should do something about that. I suck at life.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
~ma to Burrell's sister and sj's uncle.
sj, you do not suck at life. You did what was urgent and important. It's not your fault you don't have the spoons to do more.

Inorite? I guess they have GoPro cameras in Romania? And they know somone who can edit well.
The car antics put me right on edge, and that's with the expectation it was going to be schmoopy.
Me too. Seatbelts, kids!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Much ~ma for Burrell's sister, and sj's uncle.
Adorable video, smonster.

Compassionately intolerant
That is a _gorgeous_ video. My stars, it looks like they are in the business.
I've been absent from the thread for ages. Super busy. Ack.
Good news is Niki is improving and I finally figured out a way to be helpful to her from afar. Her daughters (she calls me the 4th daughter) are overwhelmed and can't keep up with getting info out to the family.
So, now I'm her official newsletter writer and distributor. Notes from Niki! I'm just thrilled to a) do it for the family and b) have something to write about!
My only remaining friend from college is in town so I get to see her tomorrow. Nice.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Today is a little crazy in my personal sphere, and I am having a hard time dealing with all of it (too much to even list, but it culminated with finding out a very good friend, who's only 30, has cancer).
I don't even really want to go on our honeymoon. It all just feels like WAY TOO MUCH.
I think that when we get back, it's probably time to talk to the doctor about the old depression beast. God damn it. I had been doing so well for 2 years. I guess I couldn't really hold myself up in the face of everything that's happened this year. I feel like I worked SO HARD to get to/through the wedding, and now I've got nothing left to deal with anything else. Not even a broken washing machine.
I know it's brain chemistry, but damn if it doesn't taste EXACTLY like failure.
