Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Why are there so many problems with this house? Don't they have home inspections in Canada?

If it's in Toronto or Vancouver, the markets are so hot that theirs usually bidding wars and people buy without conditions, including inspections because they so desperately so want a house.

So my family had some terrible news. My cousin's son murdered her partner. My aunt said it was an argument that took a terrible turn, but that is third hand info. I don't know my cousin well at all, but my heart breaks for her. [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, Sue, how terrible.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh dear, Sue. Peace and comfort wishes for the loved ones.

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

Timelies all!

Bleah. Am fighting a cold of the snot monster variant. (Was planning to go to dance practice for the first time since I injured myself, but it's probably better to stay home, drink tea and go to bed early.)

Dear Bosses

Sparky1 cannot work today. You are frankly lucky that she ever manages to put up with you.

That sounds wonderful, Laura! How fun.

Travel~ma, shrift! ALthough by the time i get this posted I see yo don't need it any more. Yikes on your sister's hand/ring/car door convergence!

I am looking at remote underground silos for buffistas doomsday habitat.

I am so down with that. Although I would prefer to refer to it as a Buffista hobbit-hole. And so affordable!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Oh, Sue. How awful.

Brenda, you are clearly more hearty than I am. You didn't even have a crowd around you to cut the wind.

I have found a bunker with 8200 sq ft half way btw St Louis and Kansas City for $295000.

As in Columbia? I need more info.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Holy crap, Sue, that is awful. I'm sorry.
