Congrats Aurelia! I'm glad they finally got around to the obvious conclusion that you are the awesomest.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Congrats Aurelia!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
YAY aurelia! Totally deserved, and long overdue.
I am home. and I have 59 million things I need to do, after a week away, but for tonight, I am wallowing.
There is rye whiskey involved.

'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"
I was a young Filipino-American girl in my dream last night... how's that for random? Also, the charity walk for Alzheimer's I'm doing later this morning was involved, but at least THAT makes sense.

Milano cookie*: Lee, you're totally allowed to wallow at this stage.
* yes, that's what I just ate. Lee isn't the only wallower. In my defense, it was only one.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Wallowing is definitely allowed right now. Encouraged, even.
And, congratulations, aurelia!

Need to fire up the vacuum. I'm pretending it is politeness that I didn't start 2 hrs ago.

The status is NOT quo.
Wow, I'm behind here. First Lee, my deepest condolences.
And Aurelia, congrats!
And everyone else, hiya. Just leaving New England after my cousin's wedding. Whirlwind trip and drama involving members of my family not showing up because their children weren't invited (seriously?!?), but otherwise a wonderful trip.

Welcome home, Lee. I think you get to wallow a bit if you want to.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
A beautiful hot day for the Alzheimer's walk this morning, and I think a good time was had by all! (Except my slightly whiny six-year-old cousin.) Thanks for joining us, Theo!!
