For those keeping charts - Mac is about to turn 20.
Whoa!
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Y'all are not properly controlling your children. De-age them at once!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
For some reason Mac is not hitting me that hard - maybe just having spent time with msbelle, my brain has already accepted it? But Tickybox & Owen - NO! The brain rebels!

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

I think that may be a non-starter, Teppy.

Ha!
Boxes picked up! And it lit a fire under me to empty a few more to get as many out as possible by this afternoon. The boxes left are basically just DP's clothes that don't fit at the moment that we weren't going to rush to unpack anyway.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
So I had an vax appointment for this afternoon, but I got a call last night telling me they had to cancel because it was for the J&J. They re-scheduled me for next week, saying I'd get email confirmation in a few days. Ok, that was all fine until I just got a text reminder for today's appointment.
I'm guessing this is an automated system that didn't get turned off, but the pharmacy can't handle questions over the phone and the link from the original confirmation email goes to a blank page. Do I trust that next week is set or do I race to the south loop just in case?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Pretty sure that Ken is still the teenage boy that sick animals find to comfort them as they leave. Pretty much Dickon but modern and pretty goth.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hey, I am getting a Baskin Robbins/Dunkin' Donuts nearby! I'm not even sure why I am excited about this but I am. Do I need a reason beyond drive-thru donuts and ice cream? Maybe not.
It's going into a high turnover spot that was last a Del Taco, which I was excited about when it was new as well. I have a sentimental attachment to Del Taco because it was the go to midnight run for munchies at my college dorm, and also it bought out Senor Naugles which had the guy who played Harry Mudd on ST:TOS as their spokesperson (I went to Harvey Mudd College, we were pretty excited about Harry Mudd) so I still kind of think of Del Taco as really being Senor Naugles in disguise
