I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Many condolences to you all, Aimee, Joe & Em. Also my thoughts are with Jesse, ita, and whoever else is having a shitty time of things lately.

Congrats to Jilli, bob and anyone else who is having the opposite.

I haven't been able to keep up, at least posting-wise, because work has been a bear (Undo it!). It's only going to be more so as I survived another round of layoffs. Ugh, we lost some really good people this time, though we lost some really good people the last time as well.

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

So very sorry, Aimee, Joe and Em. Love each other a lot this week.

'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"

At least we've got some bright spots among the troubling ones today, like babybons and new jobs, and ita getting some pain relief. It's not all gloom and doom!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My god, Aimee. I'm so sorry. The whole Miracle family is in my thoughts.

Aimee, I am so sorry. Much love to you, Joe and Em.

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

Aimee, much strength to the entire family.

My sleep doctor has suggested I stop driving (because I can't get a good night's sleep because neither my pain nor insomnia are managed). I'm not sure where she lives.

ita, you have got to have some reasonable grounds for some sort of disability ruling by now.

Best news! My case settled!! Such a relief. And then the judge came and chatted with us and showed us around his office and stuff and we got to take a picture at his chair. Hilarious. And THEN I got a ride home! PERFECT.

That sounds like a good way to wrap up your jury duty, Jesse.
