Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Kat, how heartbreaking for that family!

I have a friend whose son is dying. Not right away, not in the next few months, but he has a very serious disease, and its progression is downhill. Every time she posts about his going into the hospital again, my heart breaks for her a little more.

My head has been punishing me. I assume it's sinuses, but I had a fleeting fear that the bonk on my cheek that gave me the black eye--and which still hurts to the touch--had gotten infected. My sister reassured me that it was unlikely. Oh, and then I picked up my son and discovered he had a fever of 101.8 and a sore throat, so now I get to worry about catching whatever he has. arrgh! No time to get sick right now, folks!

I had to show people my drivers license to convince them I'm 47. So that's good.

Excellent!

Thanks to posting some throwback thursday pictures, another friend posted some very old school college pictures, which I'm guessing is what led to someone from...college?...friend-requesting me. Except, although he's friends with 25 other people we did theater with, I have zero recollection of his name. And none of his pictures seem to be public. WTF?

Maybe he's a zombie?

I have to fold all the clothes. DO NOT WANT. I did do all the dishes and made all the food. This grown up thing blows.

I think next year I am going to need to hire a daily tutor for Grace.

Oh! I have news to share. I am leery of posting it to FB, but Franny got into Palms Magnet! She is very happy, we are very relieved.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I miss people. Need to have a housewarming, soon.

Aw, I'd love to see you, Allyson. I am always saying we need to have a party, but then I back down when I remember it would involved people seeing my house. But your house is so lovely!

Allyson, I WILL meet up with you for you to show off house (and kitchen work) this TG, ok??

I'm 5 yrs overdue on my housewarming. Maybe it will end up a banister-warming (don't fucking scratch the varnish!)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I want to do a house warming party too. Need another week or two to get the piles put away or hidden and to hang pictures on the walls. I'm really liking the new place. Much more than I expected.

Sorry about falling a apart earlier and then disappearing. Just don't have any more fucks to give but I do still have oxycodone. So the pain is down at least or maybe it hurts but I just don't care anymore.
