I mean, it's not bad.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Yeah, I agree with Jesse -- that's the kind of thing that would be interesting to know about the person behind the photographs.

I've been handed another month of May gut-punch. My cousin who's been battling cancer for the last year has just gone into hospice, and we're scrambling to figure out what to do and when/if we should drive down for last visits and to comfort the immediate family. It just can't be said enough: fuck cancer.
Any ~ma folks can spare for his wife, kids, and sister would be appreciated. I think for my cousin himself there's not much left but making him comfortable, which the hospice staff should be excellent at.

I'm so sorry, Matt. Best thoughts to all of them.

In other news, there are so many scandals (and "scandals") around my job right now, it's kind of exhausting.

And seriously, Tom, you could use that sentence as-is as an artist's statement or whatever. I say, not knowing anything about art or artist's statements!

I'm so sorry, Matt.
That's exciting, Tom! That seems like a perfectly cromulent biographical detail.

Lol, scandals are bad, but the "it's not a scandal it's a "scandal"" entertains me.
Just talked to my boss. She is checking whether I could take a leave of absence rather than quit, but if not, then to quit. I figure a leave of absence would only be good if I could take several months. And then I'd still probably be looking for jobs but it would be reassuring to know I could go back. On the other hand...freeeedom.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Why do you do photography?
While nothing can shut off the hypervigilance, instead of scanning the vicinity for nonexistent threats, composing photographs gives my brain something useful to do with the information it is bombarded with, and can be quite soothing.
If you don't want to include the detail about the hypervigilance, I think you could still use the last half of the sentence.

That sounds good, meara. So are you not working as of today?
