You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Gud! It's good to see you. I was beginning to worry about you.

ION, I just booked my vacation. I'm going to Pittsburgh! I hope it's as photogenic as I think it is.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Yay! and sorry to hear that Gud? Hopefully the much better job environment will help you muster extra spoons for the home stress.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Glad the new job is better, Gud! Sorry the home stress is high.

I just learned of cancer returning in two members of my extended family, which is a huge bummer!

I'm just going to say it, cancer sucks.

Gud! It's good to see you. I was beginning to worry about you.

It's been a busy time and I've been feeling pretty down.

It's nice to see your pixels, Gud!

I'm sorry about the cancer diagnosis, Jesse. I hope their treatment plans are effective.

Have a great holiday, Tom! I've heard good things about Pittsburg from a coworker who just took her daughter there for college.

Thanks. Of course I just know that one sentence, so I have no idea what's actually going on! (I heard about one of them in a text from my mother that included three other topics. Classic mother.)

Our wings are not tired.

{{msbelle}} I'm sorry.

{{Gud}} It is very good to hear you are in a better work environment. I'm very sorry about the home stress.

Yay Pittsburgh! It is one of my favorite places for so many reasons. The only inland place I ever lived that I would consider living again. The people! The geography! I also got lost all the time because the street layout is insane, but I have nothing but joyous feelings about the place.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Pittsburgh street layout is insane but it's still better than Philadelphia.

msbelle, I keep hoping this will all get easier for both of you.

Gud, glad the new job is better, and I hope the home life gets better too.

Jesse, I'm feeling overall less anxious and depressed, and more like living life, so I'm better. I think I'm ready to tackle work again. I'm working half days for two weeks, then back to full time. That's the plan anyway.

That's fantastic, Zen. I'm glad this time has worked for you!

I'm working on my self-evaluation, and it's pretty good! Phew.
