And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That sounds great, Laura. Enjoy!

Part of me wants to suggest that for the big 65 going out for an Early Bird special would be appropriate but I've been doing that for years with no excuse, so probably that part of me can shut its yap.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Happy Birthday, Laura!

Our wings are not tired.

Thanks. The funniest part of the day was my brother sending me an email (he hates the phone as much as I do). It had a graphic of a nasty face Trump saying "Happy Birthday Sister! The Mexicans will be paying for your cake, believe me!". Under that it said happy birthday from your only sib without a Medicare card. He is 11 months younger than me and the youngest of the 4 of us. Amusing because he and I agree on zero politically, but shows he still has humor about it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Is your birthday today, Laura? Happy Birthday! Enjoy your evening!

Thank you for the wishes. It is a big one in many ways. But still 30 years from the age my mom lived to, so not feeling at death's door or anything. I've pretty much enjoyed all my birthdays after about 25 or so. It's been pretty chill. Avoided work most of the day as is my custom. I'll probably do something with the kids over the weekend because Bobby doesn't get back until early morning tomorrow.

Happy birthday, Laura!!

I ate leftovers of food I made last night, but for some reason today my tummy is SO MAD AT ME for that. What on earth??

Also one of my friends pointed out it's 14 weeks until our trip to France and that somehow feels way way closer than "just over 3 months". Yikes!

I should go home, but I don't want to, because one of the managers is bitching about everyone to one of her friends just around the corner, and I'm soaking up information.

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

Happy Birthday, Laura!
