I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Jadzia has an appointment at the vet's in about an hour and a half, so I have temporarily closed the portals to the outside. No one is complaining yet.

51 for an Alzheimer's death is unbearably tragic. (Especially because I'm 55.)
I could go to Arisia today, but honestly, I'm so damn tired I doubt there's only so much enjoyment I'd get out of it.

What was your infraction? Did you try to move or something?

Alzheimer's is such a difficult disease, and I think people who haven't experienced it personally don't fully understand that it isn't just memory loss but often a complete personality change.

Yes, this. I never really knew my paternal grandmother, because she was sliding into Alzheimer's when I was born. One of my good friends is the caretaker for her mother, who has a slow progressing form of it, and it has been very hard for both of them over the past several years.

Hey, Theo, were you meeting up with people at Arisia on Saturday for dinner? Because I got a random phone call for a Connie about getting Indian food, and I think it might have been from some mutual aquaintance getting us confused. It wasn't Nutty, though...
