Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Zen, take care of yourself - you're the only you we have. And you know, I think everyone gets tired of adulting - I find that I sometimes wish I could just give up on a lot of the "adult" (non-pron) stuff I do. The other day I just could not get going, so I lay down until I felt up to moving and turned up at work an hour late ... and the world did not end, my boss didn't even frown at me.

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

Timelies all!

Health~ma to your dad, Deena.

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

Way to make your appointment, Zen!

Health~ma for Deena's dad

A friend of mine (I haven't seen or talked to her in years, but I feel friendly towards her) is getting married, which I kinda vaguely knew, but now that everyone's posting pre-wedding festivity pictures on FB I find it's a destination wedding in New Orleans and that is weirding me out.

Just had to get that off my chest and I *really* don't want to say anything in that circle of friends...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Finally watched Jane. AND Gina Rodriguez directed?!?!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That Gina Rodriguez is such a showoff.

Deena, tons of ~ma for your father.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Ha! I forgot that Brooklyn 99 was on tonight - something to look forward to tomorrow. And I checked out the What We Do In The Shadows pilot, and it was as fun as I hoped.

Tomorrow, my roommate is once again scheduled for open heart surgery. Fingers crossed! If it all works, she'll probably be in the hospital for a week altogether, and then we'll find out if they need to send her to cardiac rehab or not, depending on how her post-op recovery. It may take up to three months before she really feels better, but she will feel much better than she did pre-surgery when the recovery is over, because her heart is not functioning well now.

I'm pretty nervous about it all, actually.

Our wings are not tired

Yeah, I'm in the middle of some epic business issues and it's a lot of adulting. I'm exhausted, but the only way out is through, so I'm just working as hard as I can to get up each day and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Zen, I'm so glad to hear that you have supportive employers and that you are getting the needed help and support.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Thanks for the ~ma, guys. It's very much appreciated. Mom says he's doing better.

Okay, roommate is off to the hospital for her operation. I will commence with the fingernail-biting.
