Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I'd always kinda hoped that when a voice from above rang out like that, it'd have something more momentous to share.

I totally agree. Though "this is only a test" is kind of life shaking.

My sweet son has been running errands all morning - going to the dealership to pick up the spare key, grocery store, bank, and then off to his girl friend's to "study". Not very noteworthy unless you know that he did all this wearing his monkey onesie. He is not right in the head.

You guys, I had a dream that my father died, and it's kind of thrown me off all day.

Ugh, BRAINS. I had a dream the other night that my mother was killed by a tiger in some random apartment building. I woke up and said, "THANKS, ANXIETY."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

WHY BRAINS, WHY.

I thought it was The Little Red Hen, but then I was like, was it? Was there even a duck in that story? It sure made it's way into my subconscious, as badly as my conscious mind retained it.

Aw, CJ.

Goddamit, Brains, stop that!

Punishingly Intricate

BRAINS ARE THE WORST! I had a dream last night that my mother had had some sort of massive stroke and I was so sad that I hadn't marked the last occasion that I spoke to her when she was "herself." I was so glad to see her liking something on FB this morning as usual.

I also had a dream about a My Little Pony video game (old, old school computer video game).

Heh. OK, I see the problem. I was conflating it with that the-sky-is-falling-story, which also features a chicken but that's about it.

A friend of mine has a lefty-liberal-ish sister who lives in Idaho. Apparently there are some lovely wild areas out there. Also, potatoes.

Close to where you were in Oregon?

Come on, Nashville. Or wherever else warm was in the running, I forget.
