Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, msbelle, I hope they take good care of your grandmother.

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

I'm hoping they get some ativan or something, because we could all use it!

Can they inoculate against anything dramatic happening? You guys totally need that.

So, hey, if I don't restore the image of my previous laptop I have the most recent version of OS X. But then I will be missing a number of things. DILEMMA. Ah, well. I can always cave and go back to old image...and I could always back this up too, huh? Okay, dilemma-ish.

Cass: I think it's a solar farm developer. Not without environmental consequences, but better than fracking, I believe.

Steph, I'd love to, but I'm a bit fried after traveling: I spent most of the day on the couch. Apparently touristing and vacating makes me want to hole up for a day or two.

I think it's a little ridiculous that we're here, but my mother couldn't think if anything else to do. I'm just watching Jeopardy.

Because books.

Is he still worked up, Jesse? Would his doctor prescribe some Ativan for times like this?

That sounds really cool, Consuela. Solar energy fascinates me.

Good news on the new Mac, ita.

No, he's totally fine now. I had called the Alzheimer's hotline, and the guy said redirect, and I guess driving to the hospital is pretty good for that. Maybe I should suggest they go to dunkin next time.... Of course now they are doing a ton of tests.

Redirecting is probably a better idea than drugs, although it does take a lot more effort.

S. accidentally put milk chocolate chips in the cookies, but it's not like I won't eat them anyway.

I think drugs are a great idea, myself.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Not without environmental consequences, but better than fracking, I believe.

I don't even disagree with that. It's just a contentious issue where I live. And should be because it's not an environment that recovers quickly. Solar is an excellent option here, but I have opinions on some of the farms.

Drugs and redirect to Dunkin sound like an excellent future plan. Fewer tests and delicious treats.
