Kudos to JAR -- it's always some degree of nerve wracking, every time I have to come out (along two vectors) again. I can't even imagine doing it as a celebrity actor, of any degree of fame.
So like, never get a pet to fix your mental health, but as a dog's seeing eye human, I can't overstate how much it helps both my mental and physical health to have to go out on walks at least twice a day, no matter the weather.
I emailed one of my cousins a few days ago -- he's 95 years old, and lives in an independent living facility in Portland -- and I haven't heard back yet. I'm starting to get worried. (I've got his son's email address, though I don't really know his son too well, so if he doesn't reply in another few days, I'll email his son, I guess.)
I hope he's ok and just missed your email or something, Hil.

That may or may not* have happened to a certain Trudy and her college roommate and a box of cake mix resulting in a very flat yet still tasty (and possibly protein enhanced) cake.

I'm supposed to have my monthly "career growth plan" meeting with my boss this week. Is "staying minimally productive while hanging onto my last shred of sanity" a valid career goal?
Jessica, no less valid than "not get yelled at while navigating these last months before retirement."
Good one, Jessica, I may have to steal
