You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

Because books.

There's a marathon of S1 X-Files on Chiller today. I wish I didn't know that.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Thanks for nothing, Amy.

I have the boxed set of X-Files next to my desk at home, I'm happy.

You're entirely welcome, brenda! Baby!Scully!

I'm the laziest person alive, though, truly. Even if I have DVDs, I'd rather watch a marathon, because then I don't have to do anything but turn the TV on.

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

Plus marathons are magic. It's like the universe has chosen to give what you want without asking.

I am so definitely not looking forward to this trip. Funeral bits aside, even. It's just that all the flying and travelling and conversating makes everything hurt more, and it's not like I can request vacay painkillers.

I'm tempted to ask for tomorrow off so I can dedicate it to making sure everything is done as early as possible.

I thought you were going this weekend, ita! I'm confused.

I'm sorry you have to undertake the trip, especially for unfun reasons.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

If you can swing it (w/r/t having time off available, and being able to juggle work), then do it. Your peace of mind/mental health is valuable too.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Absolutely this. And all good ~ma for the trip being as okay as possible, § ita §.

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

Trips are stressful even under the best of circumstances. I hope this one is as smooth as possible, ita. Also agreed on taking the day off if you can.

Anyway, one of the things you could do at this park was play tug-of-war with a lion! Which is awesome, right?

Yes!

Fluff and fold was absurdly expensive. And DH is still dragging his feet on buying a new washer. I sense there will be laundromats in my future. Sigh.
