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

Oh, Tep, that is getting to be an awful lot! Dang.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesus, Steph, that's a lot! Good luck with all of it.

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

I cannot find anything bad about it on Goodreads, Twitter, or Amazon or googling the author and the word controversy. It doesn’t look like smut at all. So weird.

I've got my head in my hands while staring at the middle distance on your behalf. Jesus Christ.

I’m about to Google “how to dispel a curse.”

Strewing garlic flowers around couldn't hurt

Urgent Care doctor thinks it's a bad sinus/pharynx/throat infection. I got a steroid shot for the swelling, and Rx for 2 weeks of antibiotics and prednisone.

Tim is cancelling tomorrow's lung surgery and trying to get an emergency appointment with a retina specialist at the Midwest Eye Institute. Shit is crazy.

Helped her 'til her mother got rid of them. Just saying.

I hope all the surgery postponing and arranging works out! Jeesh.

I'm going to keep my mom out of my house, then!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Urgent Care doctor thinks it's a bad sinus/pharynx/throat infection. I got a steroid shot for the swelling, and Rx for 2 weeks of antibiotics and prednisone.

Bad timing, throat!

I got a steroid shot when they diagnosed me with strep and it felt better by the next day, so hopefully you'll get quick relief.
