the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Husband and I both spent the night vomiting, so 2023 and 2024 can go fuck themselves right now.

Dana, I literally feel your pain. The best comfort I have is: if it's the same thing we had, it doesn't last too long.

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

Timelies all!

Happy New Year!

Happy birthday Susan W!

Happy birthday, Susan!

Health~ma to those that need it.

Pix, managing my dad’s care from a 90 minute drive away was challenging. Trying to do so from across the country seems really hard.

I had a long new year’s brunch with some friends, and then spent the rest of the day de-Yule-ifying the apartment. Work starts up again tomorrow, and I work from home. So it’ll be good to have stuff done instead of looking at to-dos every time I raise my head from my laptop.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I haven’t sent any cards, either. I just move them around from room to room, where they sit, cheery and accusing.

Happy New Year, buffistas. May it be much better than the one before it.

Pix, ooooof. That's so difficult, especially when it's all on you, and I'm sorry. Continued ~ma to you and your family.

So there's more drooping on one side of his face today. The nurse thinks he may have had a stroke. He may be going back to the hospital

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, Pix. It sounds like the hospital is a better place right now.

Pix, I'm so sorry.

So there's this person I don't like, and I want to run a smear campaign against them. Does anyone know who at the NYT I should contact to get the ball rolling?

Pix, I am so sorry that this all sucks so much and that there's just you in terms of family who can help at all.

(Which, despite having two siblings, I get on a visceral level that I am just unable to even go into if I want to function. Just know that I get it. I get it so hard, and I'm so sorry.)

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Boy, I did not expect, when posting about being sick on FB, that I would get an anti-Covid-testing comment from a dude I knew in high school. What a fucking wanker. I mean, he was a fucking wanker in high school too, so that part isn't too surprising.
