I'm so sorry for your loss, sara. And for the contractor woes.
And, oh my god, -t, that's awful. I'm so sorry.
I can handle the Oz Full Monty. I mean, not 'handle' handle.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I'm so sorry, sarameg.
And -t, that must be hard to figure out how to react, how to help.
Yuck, Jesse

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm so sorry, sarameg.
-t, oh my god, that's terrible.
Jesse, at least it sounds like she realized and tried to recover, but that really never goes well.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Malice is short for Malice Domestic, a convention about traditional mysteries.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have spent all day trying to reach the woman who's supposed to be coordinating steroid shots for me. Last time I called, they said she's away from her desk and may be gone for the day.
I saw the doctor Wednesday. I'm flying to New Orleans Tuesday. And fucking nothing has been done.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Wishing right-ness for Dana.
-t, that's such an awful situation, and I'm sorry.
Sara, my condolences on your loss, and sympathies on the contractor and stupid work.
smonster, I'm sorry about your friend.
Jesse, ow. Hard to recover from that. Sometimes you don't realize how deep it is till you actually step in it. More practice on IDing aggressions before you take that step.
Fidgets. I lose the toys, so I stick with jewelry. Primarily these.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Oh, Dana, how frustrating. Jeez.
Much love and comfort flowing out to all who need it--this Friday seems to be hitting hard.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, no, Dana, that's not right!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Sara, -t, smonster, Dana -- I hope your weekends are better than today was.
Fidgets. I lose the toys, so I stick with jewelry. Primarily these.
I've thought about getting a spinner ring. It seems like it would be more discreet but still fidget-able in stressful situations.
Further adventures in the Saga Of My Father-In-Law's Pants: last night Tim brought Jack's laundry home for us to do*, and there are indeed only 2 pairs of pants. Though now I'm wondering what he's wearing today. Maybe sweatpants? Although I thought last week that someone ordered more pants from L.L. Bean for him.
*(I told Tim that I don't mind washing Jack's shirts, pants, and socks, but he was going to have to wash his dad's briefs. So he did a load of whites last night and I washed the pants and shirts today.)
