I'm sorry Jesse, both for the news and that you missed the phone call.
This here's a recipe for unpleasantness.

Yikes Jesse. May things go with as little suffering as possible.

Our wings are not tired.
You and your family are in my thoughts, Jesse.

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.
Jesse, sending lots of ~ma to you and your grandma and your whole family.

Oh, Jesse, that's rough. Keeping you in my thoughts!

Lots of ~ma for Jesse and her family.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm sorry about the news, and the missed phone call, Jesse. My thoughts will be with you and your family today.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hang tight and peace to you, Jesse. Don't beat yourself up about the phone call. Unless there was also a drunken coke binge with loud music going on at the same time--sometimes you're legit in the wrong place.
Non-hugs to your entire family.

In a separate post, I managed to wake up without my alarm this morning (not only was it not in my room, it didn't go off anyway--did it miss me?). I have made an *entire* lunch, including a sandwich, fruit, and appropriate dessert. The kitchen is even half clean from all that, and will be clean before I go.
I should stop lounging here with the tea, though. It's just so tea-ey.
*And* I think it's time for a (virtual) trip to Adagio today.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Headline o' the day:
Titanic lump of fat & wet-wipes dislodged from sewer
Noted tax-avoiders Thames Water's press release trumpets the news that they have excavated the largest ever "fatberg" -- a technical term denoting a huge, impacted lump of "festering food fat mixed with wet wipes" -- from a London sewer.
“Given we’ve got the biggest sewers and this is the biggest fatberg we’ve encountered, we reckon it has to be the biggest such berg in British history.
“The sewer was almost completely clogged with over 15 tonnes of fat. If we hadn’t discovered it in time, raw sewage could have started spurting out of manholes across the whole of Kingston.
“It was so big it damaged the sewer and repairs will take up to six weeks.
