You're right, Steph. Which you knew, I know, but still worth saying.
Jesse, you're going to need the time off by then! But hopefully you can also enjoy it.
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

could there be some parallel drawn with a non-state of "pre-pregnancy"?

Then the ever popular pre-cold! Reason to buy more drugs! Because god forbid you may have just sneezed at a random irritant.

Fucksticks. I can't and won't get into details, but I just spent the last hour essentially doing family counseling over an epic kaboom (not my family, fwiw.) I just...I think I got through, I think they all heard the right words, I hope I gave them perspective and tools. This is so beyond my paygrade....

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
And wine if you are inclined, sara.

Oh, I tried. How I did try. And got lectured that "pre-diabetes" is a set of parameters that indicate a person could progress to diabetes. (Yeah, but..."could" means that they also could NOT, and if the result is NOT, and they never develop diabetes, then they never WERE "pre-diabetic" because WORDS MEAN THINGS.)
Narrrrrrrrr.
