Mom keeps pushing a hotel room on me, which, no. Brother's fam is recovering from various plagues, but I'm gonna be around them (that's the whole point) so me staying in a hotel is not going to make a difference.
Is it possible that she thinks that you staying at a hotel will help your brother's family while they're sick? Like, they don't need to worry about having a guest?

I always rent a car in Ohio. If I'm there with Tom, we stay in a hotel room. Thus far, when I'm there by myself I've stayed with my parents, which I hate. I think I'm going to have to change that up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, I'm so sad to hear about Ouise! Fucking cancer.

Oh, damn. RIP Ouise.

Oh shit. That sucks about Ouise. I liked it better when the board had more babies born and less people dying.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, what Meara said. Fuck.

Oh no! Such sad news. Ouise was my Secret Santee years ago. I sent her the Gorey cardboard Dracula set. Sad for us. Sad for the Haligonians.

Punishingly Intricate
So sorry to hear about Ouise.
Bob shipped our presents out to Michigan so we're traveling with carryons. My work week was insane so I'm hoping I didn't forget or forget to do anything key. I didn't have time to make a list.
