It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

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

you really don't want to hear "recovery is just going to take some time!"

It sucks, but really you just have to say, "Honey, remember how unrealistic it was in the movie when Bane broke Batman's back and then he climbed out of that hole without medical care a week later?"

(I know it wasn't a week, but really I could not suspend my disbelief.)

"Bane broke your back. But in a therapeutic way so it'll be better! Imagine the Bane on Harley Quinn explaining this to you. The main thing is you're not crawling out of the prison hole until it stops straining credulity. It's going to be a few days."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

"Honey, remember how unrealistic it was in the movie when Bane broke Batman's back and then he climbed out of that hole without medical care a week later?"

...this actually might work!

Imagine the Bane on Harley Quinn explaining this to you.

PERFECT!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Timelies! It has been forever and a day since I've been around these parts, but I wanted to make sure to send the family Zmayhem all my love.

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

That breakfast sounds amazing! I had cold pizza, which I was happy with but it’s no lemon curd on Devon cream. So glad to hear JZ is getting delicious calories!

I hope Bane can make Tim feel less terrible. Recovering from surgery is emotionally hard on top of the physical insult (ultimately helpful but still tough). I wish you strength in taking up your litter box cleaning duties, Tep. I know Murderbiscuit won’t show any appreciation.

Hi Anne!

Hi, Anne!

I wish you strength in taking up your litter box cleaning duties, Tep. I know Murderbiscuit won’t show any appreciation.

His idea of appreciation is defiling the newly clean box immediately after I clean it. I guess it's appreciation for a job well done?

Awww, thanks, Anne. Love received.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well done!

Hang in there, Steph.
