Ann, that's a ferret.

Sophia, best wishes for your friend. There's a reason that it happened now.

Your friend might want to at least familiarize herself with the process for getting a protective order, just in case her husband decides to get ugly. I don't know NY procedures, but VA has an application form that you can fill out online, print, and take to the courthouse to get a temporary order.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Sophia, tons of ~ma for your friend.

ltc is at school, I have split pea soup in the crockpot, and have done my trash day clean out of the fridge. Now I have two hours before I pick ltc up at school and then pick up thessaly for errands.

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

I have been at work for half an hour and I'm ready for a nap. I guess I'll have a cup of coffe instead. I would rather have both, frankly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like I just saw a thing that a 20-minute nap makes up for an hour of lost sleep, so a nap may be your best bet!

Oh, here: [link] Also, if you do both, it's a nappuccino!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, askye.

Sophia, that sounds fraught. I hope your friend finds a good way past all the mess.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Askye, I'm so sorry for you and your mom.

Sopihia, I hope your BFF's meeting with the lawyer goes well today.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Love and supportive thoughts for you and your mom, Askye.

May the mess not be too messy for your friend, Sophia.

I heard that on NPR (including the napuccino! *love*) as I was parking at work, which made me want to nap even more than usual, I think

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

Timelies all!

Been tired all day. Been tired a lot, for no apparent reason.
