I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

(because it needs its own post)

Oh dear, Hec. I'm glad you weren't seriously injured.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

As it is I have a bruise on my elbow and my shoulder is slightly wrenched from landing on it.

I feel like the worst pain/bruising will show up after 24 hours, so maybe put ice on your shoulder and/or elbow to keep it from getting a whole lot worse. Also maybe take 4 ibuprofen right now, and again before bed.

I mean, there's Wimbledon, too, right?

Is Wimbledon happening now? Shit, it's July. How did that happen?

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

Oh, yeah, it is Wimbledon time, isn't it?

Yikes, Hec! I think your physical biorhythms are all off-kilter or something. Bubblewrap and maybe one of those germ-free bubbles for you.

Our wings are not tired.

Tennis! Super 15 year old Coco is from my town, played in the impoverished community center where DH coached the little kids basketball. Very exciting stuff.

In what did I do to get such responsible kids news, son and DIL went to a geneticist today. She had previously met with her Ob/Gyn who suggested the consult. The doctors feel she should get with the baby making soon. They brought all their info and the only real concern is the geneticist feels she should have c-section(s). Big diabetes factors on both sides, but they can do a bunch of stuff to help with that. The concern is with the size of both of them the possibility of huge babies increases and with her EDS that can screw up her hips badly. They are just such planners it amazes me.

Yikes, Hec!!! Take it easy, man. That is scary.

This, too. You can ice your shoulder inside the germ-free bubble.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm sure this was only my routine for a couple of years, but I 100% believe that the 4th of July is for watching Wimbledon and then Law & Order.

Oh but I actually came over here to report that the institution of higher education for which I work apparently has a program which is abbreviated BSDM. That took me quite a few minutes to get past.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That is scary.

It would have been scary except it happened so fast I was on the ground instantly and I wasn't hurt.

I always wonder, when things are named like that (or have suggestive logos, or whatever), is there NO ONE who looked at the name and said, "This might not be the best choice because of other connotations"? Or maybe that person exists but got overruled.
