Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

Good declotting vibes, Brenda. Holy fuck.

Coding and Sleeping

Had a branch fall and hit my forearm. It hurt a lot and swelled up fast, but luckily it's only a contusion. Still hurts quite a bit. Think my wife is mad I'm not taking care of dinner, but, you know, pain. At least I can mouse left handed and my one handed typing is good enough to code.

That sounded bad. My wife is just kinda stressed and I don't think it's personal. Also, admittedly it is pretty stupid to get one's arm whacked by a falling branch.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Gud, it fell. It was literally not under your control.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Surely not anything a person could foresee, though.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Seriously gonna write a script that finds every instance of "my wife is mad" and responds with "GUD YOU ARE AN AWESOME PERSON AND YOU DON'T DESERVE THIS".

And I won't even restrict it to only the Gudwife being mad, because extra reminders can't hurt.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Yeah, I mean, I get that it's a freaky complication to your life, Gud, that literally nobody needs, and she was probably upset about that...and I know what's like to blame yourself for everything.(also sounds a bit like Mayhem's all "Hey, I'm your tree in the winter..." but this is NOT YOUR FAULT.) Also, I hope you're not too injured...which I hope someone close to you cared enough to say in the midst of it all.
