All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
My mom had some donor skin grafted onto her tongue. I should've told her to use that excuse to say whatever she wanted to.
Friend got x-rays shortly after my last post which showed a gnarly dislocation but not major breakage so they were able to put it back in place give him a thumb shaped thumb again. It was an "open fracture" though, so stitches and a ridiculously large bandage wrap. After getting him home and feeding my cats I crawled into bed around 6am. So that was a 23 hour day.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
In random news, D is kinda obsessed with goats, so I just ordered a stuffed goat for him from You've Goat Mail for V-Day and I CANNOT WAIT till he gets it!
I really wish they'd had a black one, because he was reeeealllly into Black Philip from "The Witch."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You've Goat Mail is the funniest thing I've heard all day!
I have just figured out why I'm having trouble finding a sauna to go sit in -- they are in gyms! And I don't go to the gym. There's apparently one fancy spa with all the accouterments (on public transportation), and it's super expensive, but still cheaper than an actual vacation, so...maybe?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
A big part of why I joined a gym = the steam room.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Does Boston not have a shvitz or banya you could go to? (Or is it just that they're all full of creepy old Jewish/Russian men, as the ones in Brooklyn tend to be.)
There is a mobile sauna that will drive to your house!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Well, looks like I am going to be a substitute teacher! You won't believe how bad the pay is--$12 per hour. Luckily, the DH is going to pick up the slack with his writing so we should be okay. I'm very excited--I've missed teaching a lot.

That's great, Scrappy! Although you're right, the pay is awful.

Not conveniently. On the other hand, the opportunity to go to Dillon's Russian Bath might be worth it.
And actually, looking for Russian baths turned up some new possibilities....

STOP IT, EVIL HAND!
Yes! Except, not fun.
Congrats, Scrappy! (Unfortunately, I can totally believe how bad the pay is, sorry. My sister subbed in MI for a while, over near Pontiac.) I hope you have some great classroom experiences.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It is the ultimate fate of all Buffistas to move to Michigan and become teachers.
