That all sounds fantastic, Laura.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have adulted with extra civic responsibility sprinkles.
I got the oil changed and bought new tires (getting good discounts I think because the recently widowed car shop manager may be a little sweet on me) and good car maintenance stuff like that. Then I mailed off a bunch of eBay stuff, then went and bought groceries. When I left the grocery store, a canvasser came up to ask if I was a registered voter, and since I am, asked me to sign a petition to get a revised income level to get kids onto Medicaid in Utah onto the ballot. Reader, I signed it. And that was more than enough human interaction for my day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I fixed a popped seam in my Easter dress from two years ago. I should go try it on just to make sure, but I'm hoping it will suffice for tomorrow. I do have a back up, but either one will need ironing.
Got nails done today, but should probably paint my toes.

Matt, how's your dad?
They drained a liter of fluid out of his left lung yesterday afternoon, so he's sore but breathing more easily and his fever's down below 100°. I think the periodic morphine is keeping him in much better spirits than he was in before the procedure.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Our wings are not tired.
Dang, that has to make breathing easier. I've never had morphine, but my dad after he had nose surgery said it was the best stuff ever.

Jesse, that's awesome! I feel like random nights are so much less frequent as I get older.
Laura, yes, that's the thing—normally I dance with a bunch of folks where I'm one of the best dancers but then I go to this giant group and...oof.

Yeah, I'm thinking if it had been the lung on the non-paralyzed side that was that full, he'd have been in a LOT more pain previously. The right one was probably handling most of the workload.

How scary, Matt. Keeping the health and healing ~ma headed his way.
