Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Partly, it just seems so unlike me to even be here, it's hard to believe until I'm actually here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Dana, I basically had no internet at my parents' house this weekend and I read about 5 books. Granted, three of them were Avatar the Last Airbender trades, but they're pretty long.

I don't know if I know anyone (other than possibly my father, because one needs to do that) who's ever been to Lesotho.

You know me! I went to Lesotho, er, [does math] ... 12 years ago? Good lord. Anyway: Have fun, Jesse!

I think there was other stuff I wanted to comment on, but, no brain.

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

Lesotho-ers, come out of the closet! I want to be jealous of you.

Oh, dear. I am unprepared for these oatmeal chocolate cranberry (low gly) cookies. What are the symptoms of oatmeal poisoning?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

All my good-health-for-dads vibes are going to your dad, Maria.

What are the symptoms of oatmeal poisoning?

Happiness? Pooping on the regular? Begin to look like the guy on the Quaker Oat container?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What are the symptoms of oatmeal poisoning?

Hahaha! The surgery gods are laughing at my family this week. My nephew has to travel to Halifax for surgery to try to repair a severed tendon tomorrow, my sister (not his mom) has sinus surgery on Thursday in their town. Today my dad got a call that his long-awaited corneal transplant is going to happen Thursday in Halifax. At least my bro and family are already on the way here, so they can transport my dad. But my sister has to have someone with her after the surgery, so that's my other sister's job. And I get to be my dad's caretaker. And possibly my mom's, since she's got dementia and can't be left alone. Yikes!
