I did go back and forth about if I should say it wasn't an ita-style link itself!
The proper tribute is to have people waver over the mouse, unsure whether to click.
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That was exactly what I figured, in the end.

Thank you for the good wishes. I think I now officially qualify as OLD.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Congratulations, Toddson! That's an excellent accomplishment
IJWTS my Fitbit says that today I have a Readiness of 1 out of (I think) 100 and I feel very seen

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Readiness for what? The zombie apocalypse?

Happy B-day Toddson!
Gud, I have totally been there with updates at cross-purposes. Good on you for getting it resolved and good luck with your family.
Steph I haven't been to the beach since the last time I visited Galveston, and then there wasn't much actual Beach Time, just a moment to stare out at the ocean. Enjoy while you can!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
My fucking dad is still very anemic and he knows the cause is gastrointestinal, based on the evidence in his own poo. He’s refusing a colonoscopy/endoscopy to try to figure out the source. And the PT and OT strongly recommend discharge to a skilled nursing facility so he can get PT/OT for the leg he injured in February. He is, of course refusing. He’s demanding to be discharged back home.
I am incandescent with rage. He’d better not call me asking for help with any of this, when he’s turning down treatment while he’s still literally in a place that provides said treatment. Fuck that arrogant, stupid old man.

So frustrating! I'm sorry, Teppy.

Happy birthday, Toddson!
Gud and juliana, nice to see your pixels!
I ended up at work until 7 pm. And I did, in fact, sort of say that out loud!
OH, COME ON. I'm glad you did say something! I'm usually the loudmouth pointing out that a launch date is on a weekend or when the supporting Eng team has a holiday.
I am incandescent with rage.
Well, if you're going to have flames on the side of your face, I'm extra glad you went on vacation.
