Congratulations Sheryl! The little guy is one lucky baby!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Congrats, Sheryl!

Whew, glad to see a not-terrible resolution to the bad Capitol news. My heart seized for a beat.

I'm pretty tired of not knowing what my reproductive system is going to do this month.

Me too. Blasted thing. There ought to be a shut-off switch.

One of my first "real jobs" was a claims processor for a health insurance company. I paid everything I could. One of the most interesting claims I got was a five-year-old boy suffering from blood loss and two puncture wounds on his neck. It was noted that he couldn't describe what had happened to him. On the bottom someone had written, in different handwriting, DOG BITE. As if to say, NOT A VAMPIRE. (It was totally a vampire, y'all.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Congratulations, Sheryl and DH! And to the lucky little guy, too!

I seem to be on a streak of screwing things up today, and I think watching a movie last night was a mistake. Makes me just want to go back to bed.

Spending time with your kid was not a mistake. Your life can't be Constant Vigilance.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Congratulations, Sheryl!

there ought to be a shut-off switch.

There was for me. It involved chemo, so I wouldn't recommend it, but it was nice to have things just stop.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

(Except when I'd see a big thick one for like breast cancer, and I'd go through and approve everything no matter what the guidelines said.)

That made me fist pump.

Spending time with your kid was not a mistake. Your life can't be Constant Vigilance.

Listen to shrift, Gud.
