Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Very scary, especially since I want to get away from what I’ve been doing for the last ten years.

100% get that feeling, smonster.

(Not gonna lie -- I've so appreciated reading people's kind comments about my questions there and most recently, too. That really gives me a warm fuzzy, you guys, and makes me feel useful... which, who doesn't love that? [Even though I don't have actual answers.] So, thanks for saying.)

Susan, it moved up by six days as I was reading that, so I hope that keeps happening. Sending all good ~ma your way, of course.

So much to deal with, Pix. I'm glad your mom and ND will be there to help you.

David, have had so much fun reading your goings on, so glad Matilda is at a place to join, and that's a beautiful way to phrase it -- knitting a new way to be together (well, your phrasing was beautiful...)

It hit 40 degrees here today, so the pup deigned to take a walk beyond a dash out the door to pee. That was refreshing.

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

Timelies all!

Happy birthday Windsparrow!

It’s been a minute, Dana. Messenger shows her as “active” earlier today but I’m not sure where to look for her to confirm…

Our wings are not tired.

Yes, been a bit. I'll go ahead and send an email.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

We could use a piece of good news, right? My friend T, the one who was with me almost every day when my dad was dying, helped find a temporary foster for my dad'd beloved dog Sunny...and they want to adopt him permanently! It's a loving home with T's friend, who works from home four days a way, his live-in girlfriend (who doesn't work and loves animals more than people), 7 and 11 year-old kids, his mom (former animal rescuer who lives in the back house), a giant doofus of a dog named Tank, and a bunch of cats who are not scared of dogs. They have a HUGE (like, an acre) fenced yard, and apparently Sunny has been happy and EATING (he barely ate for two weeks when Dad was in the hospital), and the kids are in love with him. Friends, it's a perfect home for him. And I'll still get to visit him.

That's wonderful news, Pix!
