Timelies all!
Mr. S is definitely daddy's boy. There are times when I think "What am I, chopped liver?' , but what can you do?
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Welcome, Judah! Congrats to the family!
erin_o, glad your mom has finally agreed to take a painkiller, and that it worked for her. Being a caregiver is super hard even in the best of circumstances.
Congrats on Rory acquisition, meara, he's adorable!
Sophia, I'm sorry about your friend. He sounds like a wonderful person.
I hope we all make it through this pandemic intact.
I bought a bunch of dresses from Svaha and they're cute and comfy and have pockets, which is what I wanted, but I'm still losing weight and soon they'll be too big. Some of them are almost too big already. They'll be great for the Zoom conference lifestyle though. Loose dress with pockets, long-leg silky underwear, and a soft cotton bra - why did I ever wear uncomfortable clothes?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Buffista ~ma is powerful. We ended up having a gorgeous afternoon for ltc's party. The clouds went away, and there was no rain.
ltc has always been daddy's girl. I usually don't let it get to me, but it does occasionally suck when all the emotional labor, planning etc is discounted.

Sophia, I'm so sorry for your loss.
erin-o, tons of recovery~ma for your mom and ~ma for you as well. Caregiving is exhausting, especially when the patient is stubborn.
The best part of a party, is the leftovers for the rest of the week. I'm having strata for breakfast.

Omg. I am exhausted. Last night went way better, but still! And puppy was like "ok it's 7am time to be awake and play! But only if I'm touching you otherwise I will just bark my head off!"

I'm glad the birthday party went well, sj.
I'm watching Agrippina from the Met. It's streaming for free until ~6 tonight, probably EDT, if anyone else is interested.

Sounds like being a parent.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Glad the party went well, sj!

Key question!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Today's fun at the grocery store was woman with mask way below nose, and her partner, man with mask hanging from his ear so he can vape.

I wish Nova would wait until 7 am to start meowing, but it's been somewhere between 5:30 and 6 for a while. Ugh.
