Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Why do I feel so weird about the fact that a crip fetishist has never hit on me?
I think the closest I have ever had to that was one guy I dated who I think assumed I had a low enough self esteem (presumably because of my disability) that I would put up with him being a complete jerk to me. He was wrong.

Our wings are not tired
Thanks for the good thoughts folks. I know that we will weather all of this but it's stressful right now. The family stuff is just more of my family. The other stuff is all business related, the company is doing well, it's just really tight this time of year and there's a lot of stuff going on that plays right into the sweet spot of my insecurities and things that make me feel like a total impostor as a business owner so that's hard.

I think there should be a law that there is only one giant stressor allowed at one point in time.

Part of my brain keeps going "Hey, cancer diagnosis, that means we can get away with all sorts of stuff now!" It works in the movies.

Well these two stressors are also intertwined. If my sister weren't in the middle of all the finances around my mom then there's a good chance I could borrow and make one of the other stressors much lower. Alas, she's my crazy sister and that's just not in the cards anymore. I've pretty much made peace with the fact that she's most likely made sure I'm written out of any inheritance at this point. There's all sorts of other issues with dementia with my Mom, and guilt about the fact that I didn't drop my career to be the one to take care of Mom as I am not the crazy one. So, yeah. Lots of good fodder there.

I sometimes despise myself for being grateful that there's only myself and one quite competent sister left of the blood family.

Ooof, ND. That's tough. Family + Money = Yuck.
