Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Tom!
Yay for safe travels for the ZMayhems.
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

David I'm sorry this trip was fraught I hope the next one will be easier.
It was going very smoothly until they cancelled our flight! In perfect weather, no less.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
From what I could see on flightradar24, your aircraft didn't leave San Antonio TX until this morning. Could have been a mechanical issue, could have been a crew issue.

I am glad that JZ is home and hoping Epic’s recovery goes well and she can go home too.

Did you do anything fun to spoil yourself?

David ok glad it was just the flight cancelation for some reason I was thinking there was issues with the marathon but that was the previous trip.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I just had to wrangle a medication refill issue by calling CVS, then insurance, then my doctor's office. I *think* it's all fixed, but I won't really know it's fixed until CVS tells me I can come pick up the meds.
Those phone calls have me so riled up that I'm going to do some yoga to try to regain some level of chill.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I have yoga-ed. I'm not sure if I've regained any chill (assuming I had any to begin with, which is actually a laughable idea), but my hip flexors are definitely stretchier, so I've got that going for me.
Tim had some more back imaging done yesterday, and he meets with the surgeon Friday, I assume to schedule the surgery, which is being called "reconstructive surgery" (that just feels like a whole 6 Million Dollar Man thing). Just in the last 2 weeks, he's developed a lot more pain and can't stand or walk for very long, so this surgery needs to happen ASAP.
I'm amused that he'll have back surgery performed by the same clinic that did mine, very likely 20 years to the month after mine (April 2003). There's no better medical team to do it. People travel to Cincinnati to have surgery done by this clinic. They're outstanding. They're the clinic patients go to *after* other providers have fucked up their back surgery.
