Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Yikes, Tom stay safe.

Teppy, I’m sorry you can’t rest today.

Go, Mac!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Mac did the paperwork for his new job yesterday, got his schedule through next Tuesday and today starts day 1 of 3 of computer training sessions.
Good onya, Mac. I'm always rooting for you, kid.

Hang in there, Teppy.

Our wings are not tired.

“I was in the Porta Potty, taking a p*ss, and then three seconds it’s like yo, yo, boom, boom, boom. Just one after the other — and you know it was not fireworks.”

I really had hoped they had him on video.

Holy fucking shit! Superglue to the rescue.

To be fair, it's used to seal battlefield wounds. They started this in the Vietnam war.

Shots fired outside of my work building. We're supposed to shelter in place.

Also, RIP Loretta Lynn.

For a moment I thought these were related. Anyway, I hope everything's calmed down in your area, Tom.

Yay Mac!

Getting-through-until-Thursday~ma, Steph.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

TMI?

After finally getting that surgical drain removed nearly 2 weeks ago, looks like I'm getting it back. It just won't stop draining. It had slowed nearly to a stop, but suddenly it's started back up with a vengeance (soaking through my dressing in an hour). So not something I can ignore and hope will quit on its own. They had no openings in their schedule, so they're having me go in through the ER. My friend is on her way to drive me (I could get there on my own, but if they do anything with any sedation I wouldn't be able to drive home).

Wish me luck...or something.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Smooth-procedure~ma to you, Epic.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Good vibes, Epic.

Oh, Epic I hope they get you fixed up quickly. Let us know when you can. In the meantime sending the ~ma.

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

Oh, I’m sorry, Epic. Good luck with the procedure and I hope the whole thing gets resolved more satisfactorily before too much longer.
