bon, you should be very happy. We're moving and got a DUMPSTER yesterday (yes, they recycle) and are donating a LOT of stuff to various shelters and charities.

Apparently my parent's oldest son is not doing well. Apparently my mother is waiting for him to die. He overslept the other day and she said she was surprised to see him eventually come down. He's continuing to steal liquor and wine without getting caught, so likely that he's continuing to steal from the family without getting caught. He was prescribed Ativan and is overindulging in that (and it doesn't seem to be helping any, what with the self-medicating of booze). Her stance is to keep him alive so he can go to court in May and do his four months in prison.

I'm thinking, why bother?

She called my old room "his bedroom".

I'm trying to think of planning vacation time to visit, but I don't want to until I know for sure when he's not going to be around. A May court date means he'll immediately be off to jail? So June might be safe?

Little bro' is wanting to visit me for the cherry blossoms at BBG (or is it NYBG?), so now I have a time table to get my apartment clean by. Not the festival itself, but the flowering trees and, as he said, turtles. I don't know where the turtles come in. God, I miss him. We sucked as roommates, but we'd also never been closer than during our cohabitation.

I've now got UFYH open on my browser.

Happy Easter and Happy Passover to those who celebrate!

I am kinda done, but need to get some grading in. Thank goodness for coffee.

I am at a family party with a guy who looks like Chris Evans. I'm going to take a sneaky picture.

Not Captain America, blond Evans; darker hair and stubble between films Evans.

Could be Chris Evans' brother.

That's obviously the most likely possibility.

Teppy is related to Chris Evans. Pass it on.

Teppy is holding out on us, pass it on.

ION, I am learning to dress like an adult who wears clothing and shoes that don't hurt but which, consequently, cost more than I'm used to spending on things. I've got plantar fasciitis, and I can't get away with low-ball tennis shoes and sandals anymore. So I'm browsing Zappo's because they have a good reputation among Buffistas. I've never spent a hundred dollars on a pair of shoes, but if they're sturdy and will last a few years, all to the good.

Teppy needs to post pics, stat.

Stranger things have happened - one of my former co-workers had Donny Most marry into the family. (Apparently, he is a douche of the DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!? variety.)

If it turns out to be Chris Evans, I expect an introduction to his little brother at some point. After I've had a year or so to hit the gym.
