Because books.
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.

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.

If DH is dragging his feet, maybe he should be the one sitting in the laundromat.

In theory, sure Calli. In practice, we need to wear clean clothes, and I'm better at carving out time in my schedule to get to the laudromat, plus more flexible about multitasking and working in unfamiliar settings. So getting it done outside of the house speaks to my skill set and not his. He gets stuck with other tasks that I'm not good at.
