Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Do you know which chemo is being used?

I don't. But it's a long course - 12 weeks.

You guys, I am so sad about amyth that I don't even have any words about it. I'm really glad to read all of your words.

I'm so sorry to hear about the additional health troubles of those near and dear to us. I found out yesterday my one aunt who still lives in my hometown has come down with Covid-19, but apparently her symptoms aren't too severe and she's feeling somewhat better.

In other 2020-sucks-donkey-balls news, I now have a THIRD sick pet from whatever is causing this gingivostomatitis outbreak, so I live in the Plague Cat-house. At least Molly has recovered enough to turn into a furry buzz saw and escape into hiding when I tried to gather her up for her vet appointment this morning, so I think she'll be out of the woods soon.

Happy birthday Jesse! Happy anniversary sj and teacup guy!

They're aim-ith, aim-ch, aski (as in "aye").

We have construction going on. Our front stairs (which have been rickety for a while, and actively dangerous since last year) are being completely taken out and replaced. This is good! Loud power tools and banging noises are not so good. The cats and I have objections.

Just got a call from my niece. My sister has Stage 3 breast cancer and just started chemo.

Oh Hec, I am so sorry.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Hec, that is just too much. I hope the chemo is effective for her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday Jesse!

Thank you, but it's Jessica!

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister, David.

Hi, I apparently can't read anything right now that isn't tech specs. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA!

Hec, I'm so sorry.

Just think of it as the 42-year anniversary of my launch date :)

If we had a board member named Atropic, I would also confuse you with them.
