Sending both of you love and comfort, Hec.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

although if I meet the designer of human digestive system we're gonna have a word

I'm picturing a giant velvet curtain behind which sit PInky and the Brain, or possibly the Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight.

Oh no, Hec and JZ! Though this part does make me very happy:

the blood work shows the study meds are helping

Yes very happy to hear about the bloodwork, if not the rest of it!

I’m trying to decide how long to stay at dancing. Almost didn’t make it out because I was feeling low, and now that I’m here the heat and the movement are making me a bit woozy

Glad I went in the end—a guy I know from another type of dancing showed up, and he’s an excellent dancer so I got several awesome dances in with him!! Crossing my fingers I feel ok tomorrow because it’s going to be another nice day out and I want to be able to enjoy it

Our wings are not tired.

I am sorry to hear about the delay and annoyance, but I am happy to hear that the meds are helping.

I'm glad you're having a fairly good time with the siblings, Laura!

I am in a state of grrrr about the sibling-in-law however. My SIL visiting from NY decided to invite a half dozen of her friends (whom I don't know) to my house for the air show. I am Not Happy, but can't do anything without being an ass myself. The biggest annoyance is that they can't go in or out of the building without one of us with them because of the increased security. I really hope they just have Brendon escort them to the beach and they stay there. Traffic is already bad with the barricades directly in front of my condo. Ugh. I am working hard on staying excited and determined to enjoy myself.

I am 100% sure you wouldn't be an ass by doing anything, given the ass has already shown herself in this situation.

In other news, I got up at 2:45am yesterday for an early flight to Michigan, and then crashed last night and slept for 10 well-deserved hours. There are many softball games, birthday celebrations, and dance recitals in my future.

Laura, you're far too kind. After a bit of that back-and-forth I'd have loudly asked the SIL in front of the whole group if it really never occurred to her that inviting a whole gaggle of strangers to an outdoor event at a secured building with those entry requirements would result in constant inconvenience for her hosts, or if she realized and just didn't care because it wouldn't be her that was inconvenienced.
