I'm so sorry, askye. I'm definitely vibing for things to go well with the children's services visit with Jay's girlfriend; adoption into a stable, loving family he already knows would be a mercifully good outcome for his son from all this sadness, and if it ends up benefiting the son's sisters as well that would be incredible.
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry, askye. I do hope the powers that be decide to let the girlfriend adopt the son.
I didn't have any wake or funeral for Stephen, but his sister offered to host a memorial gathering at her home. She had a fabulous waterfront home in Fort Lauderdale and she had hosted my wedding reception, so she wondered if that would be okay. It was perfect. Same people, same setting, lots of good food and loving people. I did invite a priest to come and give a eulogy for his father's comfort, and he led the more formal aspect of people coming up and sharing their remembrances. Mostly it was just a party, and a chance for us to console each other without funeral directors or churches involved. It is what I would want for myself. Stephen himself refused to discuss the possibility of death so he was no help at all!

That's a not uncommon thing, Sophia. Kinda why we have a lot of procedure and nomenclature in the first place, really.
I hope that works out, askye.

The zero and o keys are way too close together. Who made that decision?

Possibly dating back to the days of typewriters when a capital "O" and "0" could be - and were - used interchangeably.

I'm so old that I remember when you used an lower-case L for a 1.

I've done both of those, but right now typing 0 when I mean o is a problem

I think you mean "a pr0blem."

I actually had this problem this am -t. I kept typing the capital O for zero over and over again on my iPad. My brain is so foggy.

Part of the problem is that my laptop keyboard is small and my muscle memory is also confused. But they are just right there next to each other, looking for trouble!
