I am so sorry Consuela, my heart aches for all of you
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Sorry Consuela, that's terrible news.

It's really terrible.
And now to add a bit of drama, my younger brother took his FIL and his toddler with him on a trip to Tahoe with his 9-yo daughter for some sort of hockey weekend for his daughter. So that's one adult English speaker with 2 kids and a smart Chinese 65-year-old with not a word of English.
What happens? The FIL gets appendicitis. And it's complicated and they have to keep him for a couple of days on heavy antibiotics before they operate, and there's my brother with a toddler and a 9-yo, 200+ miles from home. So this morning at 5 am my niece & her bf drove my SIL up to Tahoe to get the kids, because the toddler needs to go home and someone who can communicate with him has to stay with the FIL.
It never rains, etc. But I'm also worried about trouble coming in 3s.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh dear! That is a complicated mess. I hope the FIL does well with the surgery. No doubt they were all looking forward to a lovely weekend together. Ugh.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, man, Consuela. I sure hope there isn't another shoe lurking. That is plenty of shoes for anyone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seriously, more than enough shoes!!

No more shoes.
Last Druid swim this morning. I'll miss it. One of the old guard was going around collecting contact info, to keep people apprised of news and any events. "I only started CC this summer.." "Girl, I've seen you every weekend [not quite], swimming in the rain & Alvin told me you were the only one in the pool nights this week. You are one of us."
I love pool people. Baltimore pool people especially.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Home now. Tired.

Because books.
Oh god, Consuela. That's too much. Fingers crossed for some calmer waters for all of you.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Enough shoes!
