That’s lovely Susan. I can’t believe Alex us so grown!
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

That's good to read, Susan! Although these wee babies graduating from high school continues to be disturbing.
Many happy returns of the day, Hec!

Thrive to spite them
My Aunt W, who fell and fractured her hip, was doing well but then had some complications and got a UTI and is very sick. She's been taken to the hospital so Mom is going down on Saturday. She is waiting because E is at summer camp and she really wants to see him (and also she's reluctant to go down to Florida because the past few years have destroyed her relationship with her sister). It's all fraught and I'm not sure what all is going to happen with my aunt and I'm not sure how I feel about things. Sad about my aunt but also if something happens and she does die I'm going to feel relieved Mom doesn't have to keep driving back and forth and dealing with all of this and a sister who doesn't appreciate what she has done.

Thank you! I'm making Emmett and Matilda accompany me to see Asteroid City today in Japantown. So there will be food and Twee, followed by cocktails.
Last night, JZ picked The Zeppo to share with E&M, which continues their entirely irregular exposure to Buffy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, Gud! So sorry to hear that.
