The status is NOT quo.

ND makes me worry about his health. A lot.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

So as I was leaving for what's going to be my daily (M-F) trip to have radiation to some areas in my hips where the cancer was flaring up, the brake and battery light came on in my car. Googling shows that's usually the alternator. I spent $1,900 on that car less than two months ago. I made an appointment with the dealer for 8 a.m. tomorrow. Then my neighbor called. Her cat, which she's only had a month or so, died without warning. Her grandson stays with her when his mother is working, and he's there this weekend. They had both already become very fond of the cat, who was a playful Maine Coon cat mix only a few years old. She wanted to take the cat right away to the cremation place she had taken her elderly cat to several months ago, so asked if I could stay with her grandson. I'm going to take him with me to the car place.

I feel like the axis of misfortune.

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.

Oh, Ginger. My condolences for your neighbor's kitty. And may the alternator not be hideously expensive.

Oh, honey.

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

I feel like the axis of misfortune.

No, you really aren't.

But I am sorry for all of the stress and the poor Maine Coon. I hope it's not the alternator or at least not expensive.

She was a very pretty cat. Googling tells me that some Main Coons inherit a heart condition that often kills in the first five years. It hit the grandson pretty hard.

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

Aw, Ginger. Sorry for the kitty and the stress and may the car repair be simple and cheap.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, Ginger, what a pile of wretched. All my vibes to you, and your friend and her grandson. And if she trusts you to be with him, you're clearly not an axis of misfortune; you're a safe place.

It's the alternator. $800. *sob*

Our wings are not tired.

Crap. I'm sorry, Ginger.
