But usually I browse the internet for a bit and see if I can go back to sleep.
I had to stop that and now keep my Nook in airplane mode so I can read myself back to sleep without getting any notifications.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy shit, sj. I'm so sorry!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Thanks, everyone. This isn't really new except for the actual threat, but there is always some drama from her around the holidays or birthdays etc because we don't feed the energy demon.
Laura, but my kindle was all the way in the other room...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Holy shirtballs, sj. I'll often hyperbolically say that something is jaw-dropping, but this time my jaw literally fell right open. I never knew you've had to deal with this terrible person all these years--how much more amazing that she's even partly responsible for the existence of a gem of a man like TCG. I am so, so sorry.

JZ, sorry to hear about your brother's pneumonia, how is the rest of his treatment going?

My other inlaws are coming over today, and I think I'll take a nap because now I'm exhausted and shaky.

I'm so sorry to hear about the family stressors and bad news.

Here's one more for 2018: My roommate, who was re-re-re-scheduled for her heart valve replacement tomorrow, just heard that her insurance company is balking at paying for it, so it's being postponed for what, according to my count, is the fourth time.
Why the insurance issue didn't come up before this... no one admits to knowing.
