Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just when are they going to get around to forcing everyone to gay marry, anyway?

I've been in Massachusetts for almost four years already! And nothing! I thought the paperwork would come in the mail or something.

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

we will have some generic invitation, and it will be FINE

Some guy on IO9 posted an invitation that was at least nominated for an award for novellas. I consider that the nuclear option, and will only invite people to my wedding verbally¹ if I see them in passing.

¹: It seems confusing² that 'verbally' sometimes means 'not written'

²: It also seems confusing that this one spreadsheet I'm printing out would take up more pages if I printed it on legal. I get why, but it seems confusing.

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.

Calli, yes, if you email me at my profile addy, that will work.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I need to fix up my tattoos too.

Hey, it is finally Friday! What are people doing this weekend?

eta: I am probably going to spend most of it recovering from this week, which has been brutal workwise, but I also have a gardening project in mind for Sunday, and a bunch of little chores and errands.

Punishingly Intricate

I'm afraid I'm going to be sick this weekend, but we'll see if I can go to the beach tomorrow. Then also housework. No real plans!

I am working 8-6 tomorrow. (I am off today.) Sunday we might be going to my niece's birthday party (we only got invited yesterday, it is nearly 2 hours away, and Dillo gets barfy in cars, hence the maybeness.)

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I have my choir's big kickoff weekend, so that will take up most of the day Saturday and a good chunk of Sunday afternoon as well. Otherwise, I don't know. Hmm. Rose is definitely at the age where she's bored just sitting around the house all weekend, so we need to come up with some more fun stuff to do with her. Zoo, park, library, farmer's market... what else?

flea,

can you give Dillo the wristbands? They really help me with carsickness.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Give him a sock.

Steph, I confused myself with your comment. First I was like, "masturbation reference?" then I was like "Potterverse elf freeing?" I am perhaps too tired.

I have folded all the clothes. I hate when there are multiple full baskets. I also hate when you are folding and you have a full set completed already and you look at the basket and realize you have just gotten to where the clothes are level with the basket's edge.

I work, allegedly, a 6 hour day. Or that's what I get paid for -- so I am contractually obligated to be at work from the hours of 7:52 - 3:29 with 25 minutes for lunch. You will notice that that's not 6 hours, but closer to 6 hours 30 minutes. This does not include all of the other loads of shit I do when I am not on the clock for those hours.

In other news, the gardeners just showed up so my dog is flipping out. I just want a nap which seems unlikely now.
