Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh my god, David, that's awful! I'm so sorry.

Thanks. My partners are just gut-punched by it. It's so much work and we're undercapitalized as it is. Honestly, this isn't the only time somebody has lost or damaged one of our prototypes either. These companies treat them like they're brochures instead of working models with carefully calibrated pieces and integrated art etc.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oh no, David! I'm so sorry. What a blow.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

God, that's awful. What a horrific thing to have happen.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh David, that is just a spectacularly bad sequence of events. Ick. It is a good thing to have the balance of the love and joy of your family.

Was it here I posted about my meltdown over not being able to find the key to my safe?

I remember that, msbelle—did you find it?

MAC HAD TAKEN THEM! THEY WERE ON HIS KEYRING!!!

While he was having a hissy fit last night after being a TOTAL JERK at my parent's house on Christmas, I got into his room while he was out and found his keyring to get his car key and THERE THEY WERE.

FUCKER!!

I bet he did not even know what the keys were to, just found them and took them when he was mad at me.

Aw, geez! Well I'm glad you got them back!

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

Oh, God. I only just saw David's update, due to today having been my day of back to work and a therapy session punctuated with my baby brother (the one with multiple myeloma, out in Portland, OR for his first trip outside the Tristate area since his diagnosis) getting hauled to a walk-in clinic for a lingering cough that is of course pneumonia. So David very kindly didn't tell me, but now I am reading it and I just want to throw up with rage and horror. Which will help no one, really, so I need to button that shit down and just not; but, still, queasy and aghast.

Also, missing Emmett and his boisterosity, and bummed about the whole going back to work again tomorrow thing. Also also, just realized that although I had a huge mug of coffee first thing in the morning, the coffee people at work never got around to replenishing the carafes so I missed second coffee, and now I am feeling all the tired that ever was.
