Oh, dear. I am unprepared for these oatmeal chocolate cranberry (low gly) cookies. What are the symptoms of oatmeal poisoning?
Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

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

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.

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!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ay yai yai, Sue! Good luck with all of that.
And best of luck to your father, Maria.

It's like a game of Tetris with people, trying to figure out who's going to be where and who can do what.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, thank god, the internet is back. The fucking landscapers managed to cut the cable Monday morning, because fucking Comcast didn't manage to properly bury it last time they had to fix something.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Stupid Comcast.
Last year I heard a story where Comcast or the gas company (I forget) had dug up someone's lawn. When they were finished they dumped the leftover dirt down a storm sewer.

Punishingly Intricate
Keeping your dad in my thoughts, Maria!
I'm jealous of all the people getting to travel to exotic places for work (although I think I'd get tired of work travel pretty quick)!
