108/80 is considered high?
No, it's good. My blood pressure has been consistently sky high at the doctor's office, and now that I've made the decision that I'm getting out of this job, my blood pressure magically went down even while at the doctor.
When I went the dentist last week, mine was 160/108. It's never high like that, so I was a little freaked out.
You are under a lot of stress, Amy. It's understandable right now. Maybe try to keep an eye on it, though?

Okay people, STOP DYING. Right now. I decree from now on, immortality for everyone. Also no sickness or poverty, and everybody gets a house with a unicorn in the backyard.

Because books.

Could we have someone to clean up the unicorn poop, too?

If unicorn poop doesn't clean itself up by turning into lavender-scented rainbows, I have been severely misinformed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sorry, MM. Even when it's not unexpected, it can still be really sad.

Of course! What was I thinking.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think unicorns (and pegasuses) are magical creatures that do not poop.
Relatedly, I always wondered how the pushmi-pullyu pooped.

I did get good news yesterday. The cancer diagnosis I mentioned (here or FB? Can't remember) is looking less dire after further testing. It's still going to be a rough rode, but the initial indications were that Things were Imminent. So that's huge.
(If I didn't mention here: not me. A very close family friend whose cancer diagnosis we learned on the Wednesday of ita week.)
