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

Sending love and support to you and yours, Jesse. Is your grandma awake or lucid at all?

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

I guess it is better to say these are non-credit classes And there is no penalty if you do not do the assignments

There's no penalty, but there's also no certificate of completion. Which might not count for shit in the real world, but who doesn't want a gold star? I'm gonna get one before all is said and done, and Amy, have you done your homework yet? No Winchesters before it's done!

But it is always sudden

Truer words, etc. I'm virtually standing sort of close to you right now, Jesse. Appropriately close.

I'm sorry, Jesse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No Kate, she's just (apparently) asleep. No tubes, just oxygen and morphine. I feel like she would be so glad to get so much sleep! She often insists that she did not sleep one wink!

Punishingly Intricate

Sending you love, Jesse. That's a beautiful image of your Gramdma having a chance to rest.

Because books.

Amy, have you done your homework yet? No Winchesters before it's done!

What are you, my mother?!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sending sweet dreams to your grandmother, Jesse.

Seriously, keep talking about other things. I could use the distraction!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Well, I felt the need to relate that, when talking to my mum on the phone, that I had a horrific dream that she'd died. Didn't remember until I had her voice in my ear, and I have a desperate need to take vacation and see her NOW.

ION, was a good sister and bought my lil bro some gearhead stuff for his new kayak. A drybag totebag (in green, it's so going to clash with the camoflauge red he picked out in a Christmas sort of way), a waterproof case with a jack for his phone, an attachable light for the boat, and a light for his keychain that can send an SOS signal and is visible up to a mile, some comfort grips for the paddle. I forgot to add the emergency whistle in the package, though. I'll give that when I go up next month.

I opened up his card at the post office to sign it, forgetting it was one of those audio ones. Whoops! It was about master bullshitters and beer, seemed appropriate.

I called up my mom to tell her what I'd gotten, but she took it to mean what did he want. So she dropped me and screamed out the back asking what he wanted. Yeah, anything from the NRA website, but specifically a vest to conceal weapons.

Yeah, no. Here's an orange whistle and other things to save your life when you start kayaking with beer.
