If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Many happy returns of the day, David! I hope there's a fancy cocktail and some yummy food on the docket. Happy Birthday!

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.

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

That does sound like a very Smay day, good plan!

oh, no, Gud! I'm so sorry.

I know you are hella smart and reliable, and hope you will find something good pretty quickly. I hope your former employers gave you a good severance!

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday, Hec!

I'm sorry, Gud.
