Good to hear, Laura!
My plane apparently has a leak in the brake line so I am back in the airport while they fix. I guess I am due for something like this, haven't had to deplane after boarding until today.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Cannot get the WI-FI to connect on my iPad. Woes.

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.
Clean and smiling and hanging out with friends who would have enjoyed seeing Mom. If that ain't a win, I don't know what is!

That IS good news, Laura!
That is not, -t. Although better preventive maintenance than scary stuff during the flight. Good luck with the Wi-Fi!

Our wings are not tired.
Brakes would be helpful so best to fix them. I had a minor delay getting to Florida but they moved us to another gate and plane because of timing.

So good to hear about your son, Laura!!
I currently have bruises on two of my fingertips from the stupid lancets that I had to use to try to drip blood on a card for my insurance. Such bullshit. And I couldn't even produce enough blood. So now I have to try to get a doctors appointment in the next two weeks. Stupid insurance.

In MA, new law for ride share drivers means that a bigly criminal record check has to be done on you -- which unfortunately turned up some errors for innocent working drivers, like a juvenile charge for loitering that was dropped and supposedly expunged for someone I know.
But the good thing turned out to be, because I cleared it (not a big surprise) I got put on the TSA pre-check list!?
I'm still waiting on my car to be repaired. And my roommate's heart valve replacement will be rescheduled to sometime in the next couple weeks, now that they've done further testing. The suspicion is that it will be open-heart surgery instead of the easier-to-recover laparoscopic.

Laura, as someone who has gone through deep depressions, I'd say showered and socializing are very good signs.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Good news, Laura!
Is your son undergoing treatment, or is he willing to undergo treatment, for depression or bipolar? Even if he's only willing to consider medication, that might help him deal with the depressed moods.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's great to hear, Laura!
