Gud, that's so exciting! Congratulations!
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Congratulations to the couple! So happy making to read.
Also happy making - I just read a FB post from a guy I knew in college talking about how he’s been getting his girlfriend (wife? I forget their actual relationship. I don’t really talk to him I just see his posts sometimes) to watch Buffy and they are up to OMWF. I’m not going to explain to him why I in particular am so pleased, but I’ll tell y’all that I am :)

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Congrats, Gud!
I've started going to a writers' group that meets every other week at a local coffee shop. At this Tuesday's gathering, a new person joined and introduced themselves as having just graduated high school. Which made me feel elderly (and probably did the same for everyone else at the table--I'm pretty sure I was the oldest person there, but not by a lot). I asked them which school they'd gone to, and it turned out they were one of Alex's classmates, though the two of them barely know each other. Still, small world, and something of a reminder that my child is an adult now, given that his peers are out there hanging out in coffee shop writing groups with me and my peers!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Congrats, Gud! How is it that you're about to have both kids married when it doesn't seem that long ago that you were building a rocket ship in the backyard?

Our wings are not tired.
Off to the airport to pick up DH. Me, packing, packing, packing. I have managed the last couple weeks to do a damn fine job not going to the grocery store and clearing out the fridge and freezer. I like to get the freezer down as much as possible before hurricanes might happen. This afternoon DH gets a pedicure (I went yesterday), and this evening birthday dinner with MIL. (do they still have menus without pricing because MIL is a pain that way) Then tomorrow Otter Lake bound.
