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

Thank you for that, javachik!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Thank you, Javachik.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

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

Hey Jim! So good to hear from you. I've wondered about you and your family.

Hey, Fiona!

Waiting for JZ to get out of operation with the G Tube insertion. Haven't heard from anybody.

Allegedly I'll get a text from the OR but that seems shady.

Feeling a little out of the loop.

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

Or, contribute to a 529 college fund for Matilda?

So practical! Her 529 is fully funded.

JZ contributes to Planned Parenthood but also devotes a fair amount of time and money to Trans Teens in crisis. So if you have a local charity focused on support for Trans Teens, that's something she would love.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You and EM really did a fantastic job of coparenting and moving past the old hurts, I can't stress this enough. Too many people just can't.

The best gift my parents gave me - beyond knowing them - was that ALL of the parents in our lives were there for all of us. It's hard but I am grateful.

I keep typing half a post and getting distracted by work or the like and switching devices and never actually posting anything, but I am thinking of you all every time I am *not* hyperfocused on some dumb work thing, especially the Zmayhems. So I'll just say that while I have a minute. I am reading and nodding and thinking responses much more frequently!
