See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
"...and a palliative care specialist."
I had the exact same quiet freakout, dcp. Maybe they should hand out a vocabulary sheet at check-in!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Yup. My dad too, a few years back at the VA. They throw that word around way too casually given how vaguely understood it is.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
We had another home visit with Mr. S. It was a little shorter, as we went to the Gaithersburg Book Festival in the morning, then drove up after lunch to get him. No running off this time, but we still have a lot of difficulty getting him to go to bed. I just don't know what his issue is with bedtime...

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
I never looked forward to it, either, but I had a little brother to get in stupid fights with(and limited capacity to bolt) so it's different.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Ah, the feeling of looking directly out the window as your motion-triggered floodlight turns on, and seeing nothing moving at all.
Plans to watch horror movie tonight now abandoned.

I could never watch a horror movie living alone! Even with the dog now.

Just got back from a lovely weekend in Mendocino with my sister & her daughters. It's been a long time since I was in purely tourist mode, and we had some great food, went hiking, saw beautiful plants, and generally had a fine time.
