The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Oh Jesse, I am sorry for the no good horrible day, and I hope your dad is okay and that something else good happens to make up for the day as well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, thanks.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What a lot of trouble to start the day with, Cowgirl. Glad it was mitigated by new kitchen shopping!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jesse,

you have had quite the 2013. If you need some time to yourself, maybe go to a good laundromat? Some of them aren't terrible.

Yeah, I should have, but now it's kind of too late. And I don't know where there is one near me! Maybe I'll bring it to the parents' in the morning.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Aargh, Jesse! I was going to bitch (a little) about the friend with the broken foot who asked me to come pick her up from the ER, which she then expected me to drive her to a Market Basket (ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON, mind you). In another state.

(OK, so Lawrence is right on the border with NH, but we had to get on 93 for three exits to get there.)

I remind myself that I owe her bigtime already. But still.

Feel free to bitch! I would not wish Market Basket on a Saturday afternoon on anyone.

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

I am quite proud of myself--I made it all the way outside the grocery store before I started crying. Now I'm finally doing the work I didn't have the stomach for yesterday. God, head.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Theodosia, I wish your friend a speedy recovery for her own sake and so that you don't get called on to drive her to too many torturous places.

Jesse, I hope your dad's ok.

I got myself an Icee at the gas station. I've been wanting one for a few days. O Gloriously Artificially Flavored Font of Brain Freeze, I am so glad I found you.
