Timelies all!
Happy Belated Birthday Consuela! Gary's birthday was yesterday, as well.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Not weird, Epic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, you're coming to San Diego on Christmas? Just a stop on your way somewhere, or will you be a while?
I'm going to stay with my uncle and aunt in Escondido for a few days (with my mother, too!).
Is it weird that I'm comforted by Jesse and Consuela not wanting to be home for Christmas this year, so I can stop thinking I'm being over-sensitive because I don't want to be home for Christmas this year?
I say not weird! It's the grief version of wearing a rubber chicken on your head, no? NotFG.

Belated Happy Birthday, Consuela - And bon voyage.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Assuming I don't leave town (which is how it's looking at present), let me know if you'd like grab lunch or something while you're here. I'm about 20-25 minutes from Esco.

Shitty rubber chicken we got this year. It is nice to feel understood, though.
And Happy Belated, Consuela. Also Happy Trails!

And I just remembered, Escondido is where I found that Cowgirl Store on your birthday a couple years ago!

Too funny! I don't know if I'll be able to break free from family, but will let you know!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
The First Christmas after a loss is a fine time to totally break up tradition and habit by travel or other means. When my dad passed, we did not go anywhere, but rather than getting the old fake tree and family ornaments down from the attic. We bought a real tree, and all new ornaments. (the next year, we both old and new ornaments on the old tree.)
