There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

What is even happening?

Given my son's Crohn's Disease, I should not have Googled "toxic megacolon," but my son's Crohn's Disease is the reason I Googled "toxic megacolon."

He came in the office as I was typing this post. I switched tabs quicker than you can say, "Porn."

I'm definitely not going to good that one. I think of and send positive vibes your son's way often, Cindy.

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

Pickup at his school is between 2:45 and 3, sj. They got to the house a little after 5.

I send them to you too, Jen.

He's doing very well. Our insurance company made us change from his biologic (Infliximab) to the biosimilar (Inflectra) because of cost. He's only had one infusion with the new one so far, but seems the same. He gets his second Pfizer vaccine tomorrow, so we're both thrilled and hoping the side effects won't be too bad. He's excited to go back to campus in the fall. He's really only had one semester plus a few weeks *at* college, even though he's in his junior year.

Good luck with the move. I hope you and DP love your new digs.

Aargh. Gary has a meeting today from 11-5, so we asked the nanny to pick Mr. S up from school.(normally Gary does the pick up on Mondays). She left a text at 3:23, which Gary didn't see until almost 4, that she forgot and she was now on her way. They are now on their way back here, but I've been stressing a lot.

Oh Sheryl! That's awful. How did Mr. S seem?

He seemed fine, Cindy.(I, on the other hand, was a wreck)

I bet. It stresses me out just thinking about it. Does his school have a daycare program where he could wait, or did his teacher just have to stay with him? I'm glad he's okay, but you should treat yourself gently, tonight.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I also got my first shot today. It’s been almost 10 hours and my arm is really sore now. Going to bed and hope that’s the only issue.

Oy, Sheryl. How stressful. I'm sorry.

So GOOD to hear about people getting their shots!

Our wings are not tired.

FB reminded me that today is Volans birthday, which is particularly amusing to me since she doesn't FB. I've been on a FB diet just checking in twice a day to maintain my groups and do family stuff. It is Evil, but there are still people there I don't connect with other places.

The point being, happy birthday to Volans!
