You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

This means Owen turns 16 and Ticky turns 15 in the next eight days.

I think we're into Jeremy Bearimy territory here.

Got an e-mail from one of my students that he has symptoms and will be getting tested tomorrow. His mother was exposed at her job at a nursing home, and he's an EMT besides, so he's not surprised.

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

It's not circular references, Theo, it's literally just clearing formatting, not anything with formulas. To be fair, the formatting is a mess due to rampant copying and pasting, but I don't get why clearing all conditional formatting isn't a snap. Seems like that would be the simple fix but apparently not. Maybe I will force quit one more time and try again...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

My dad's attending called a little while ago, and I think we're in the end game. We have a conference call planned with the palliative care doctor tomorrow, and I think we need to affirm that it is time to withdraw support. He's not in active multisystem failure, but he is on the brink, and the hospital's supply chain for the narcotics that are keeping him pain-free (though they cause other problems, because of course) is fracturing and they're running low on the two main narcotics used for ventilated patients.

I emailed my brothers, but I need to call my dad's girlfriend to tell her. I can't even say or write the words; how can I tell her?

I'm so sorry, JZ. Strength to you.

I'm so sorry, JZ. Much strength and love to all of you.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Oh, JZ, I'm so sorry.

You have a teenager of your own! The ageing process is calling from INSIDE YOUR HOUSE!

I think we're into Jeremy Bearimy territory here.

Love you both, Billytea and DX! This made me giggle.

Sorry about your dad, JZ. That's so hard.

I can't believe how quickly the weekend disappears, even when there is nothing going on during the week or the weekend. Ugh.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm so sorry, JZ.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but I need to call my dad's girlfriend to tell her. I can't even say or write the words; how can I tell her?

You tell her it's time. And I'm so sorry.
