Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Teppy, that outfit is gorgeous and the wedding sounds delightful!

I'm also loving the idea of a house dog in a wee tuxedo.

I'm also loving the idea of a house dog in a wee tuxedo.

He's a sleek black chihuahua mix and extremely genial.

David, the venue looks lovely and I know JZ would have adored the house dog. I wish we could be there.

The mechanic can’t find anything wrong with the car but I’m overdue on engine maintenance. So they’re going to do that and check all the spark plugs. Meanwhile my diamond shoes are too tight and I miss all the extras that TCG’s car doesn’t have, but I’m incredibly grateful we have two hand control vehicles these days so I can at least drive his car.

Epic so sorry for the news. Fingers crossed for the best results quickly.

Dcp gives good advice. (((Dcp)))

I would like a support dog at work, with or without tuxedo.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

A good while ago, I saw pictures from a wedding. The bride's brother had promised/threatened to bring a llama to her wedding. He did. And, since it was a formal wedding, he was wearing a tuxedo. There was also a handler, to make sure he behaved himself.

And, in photo news: Monday was supposed to be The Rapture. Someone with an active sense of humor bought a bunch of inflatable sex dolls, inflated them with helium, went to a church parking lot and released them. Proof (scroll down a little)

Good vibes to Epic and dcp.

We found out last night that Mom's cancer is also showing signs of coming back. This time her doctor thinks he can perform the removal at his office rather than requiring an OR and general anesthesia, so at least it seems to return smaller and weaker each time? Not ideal, but I guess we may have to think of it as a regular management issue rather than something that can just be fixed full stop.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, Matt. It does sound like they are on top of it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

responding to Hec's post: The space is gorgeous, the dog is adorable, and Son & Garden is amazingly OTT. I've not eaten in a place that had a designated Instagram area before.

Matt, I'm sorry about your mom's cancer.

I think Allyson posted about a possible job interview today, so, vibes for that. so much difficult health news in thread lately. for a disabled person, I got off easily--not for gen pop, though. I'll be thinking about y'all for the memorial. I wish I could see you more often.

I’ve just figured out that I have 2.5 weeks to complete what is scheduled as an 11 week self-guided course. But it’s not just reading and a test. It is exercises and making comments on other class members posts and and AND!!! I think I over procrastinated beyond my abilities.
