Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

So sorry, Matt.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm sorry for your loss, Matt.

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

I’m so sorry, Matt

Went to visit Mr. S this afternoon. He seemed okay, though he got bored quickly. Then we went to visit with friends who live relatively close to the center, and ended up going out to dinner with them.

Thrive to spite them

I'm sorry for your loss Matt.

Bev- this is just the consultation not the actual colonoscopy. For that I will be taking the day off, and probably the day before and after as well.

Due to family history I've had at least 5, maybe 6 colonoscopies already--my doctor currently has me on an every 3 years cycle. I don't generally take the day before off, but you definitely want the full day of at least. If you haven't already scheduled it, I recommend no later than mid-morning, and I also try to schedule for a Friday whenever possible.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Feeling good that my first available colonoscopy appointment was 3pm on Monday July 31.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Today was pretty much entirely taken up by my cousin's funeral. Mom, one aunt, and I went together and were the only members of the extended family on our side able to attend due to the short notice and us being local. (My cousin was a former funeral director, so apparently the arrangements had been pre-planned and were just waiting for the trigger—he was buried with haste usually only seen in cases of suspicious death with survivors eager for inheritance!) My cousin's son gave a sweet eulogy as part of the service and was more composed than I would have been at speaking in public even without the extenuating circumstances. I suspect a future in the clergy for him. (Also he has a clone-like resemblance to his dad in his mid teens; we all had a laugh during the service when Chuck's friend and former boss said there'd never be anyone quite like him and his widow raised her arm over the son's head to point at him.)

Our wings are not tired.

Went to visit Mr. S this afternoon. He seemed okay, though he got bored quickly.

Did you get any feedback on how he has been coping with the change?

Also he has a clone-like resemblance to his dad in his mid teens; we all had a laugh during the service when Chuck's friend and former boss said there'd never be anyone quite like him and his widow raised her arm over the son's head to point at him.

That's nice. I hope it brings her comfort.

I have family visiting. We went to the beach for sunrise. It is great having them here.
