Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Health~ma to your dad, Benda.

I'm cooking Persian dinner tonight. Steamed rice with tadiq (crispy rice) and walnut-chicken-pomegranate stew. Also making a plate of pita bread, feta, mint, radishes, and onions. I really want to make a full Persian meal but those take a lot more work.

FesenjÄn! I haven't had that in ages, largely because the one place within driving distance that makes it also makes really delicious kabobs, tenderloin filets, and seafood crepes.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

So much dad~ma, Brenda. And I wish he hadn't had a seizure, but if he had to I'm glad it was right in front of the doctor. It makes a huge difference in treatment when they've actually witnessed an episode.

So much that, JZ. And holy fuck am I glad I decided to call 911 (after talking with the VA nurse helpline) and that didn't happen here at the house.

I'm home now and he's in an ambulance headed to the VA. A transport ambulance, I should say, not lights and sirens. I'll go up tomorrow but he won't really be fully aware tonight. The VA is about an hour away mostly on country roads.

In less distressing news, Lee and I are about to leave on an excursion to Phillip Island to see some koalas and penguins!
