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 agree with Steph; if not on your birthday, when is a food coma appropriate? May the rest of your birthday be as enjoyable!

I am celebrating a successful dentist exam and cleaning - no cavities! No periodontal icks! The hygienist didn't cause me pain! - by making syrups for cocktails. As I told Bev at the weekend, cocktails appeal to the part of me that wanted to grow up to be an alchemist, though I am sadly lacking the minion who followed along behind and did the washing up.

Matt, how's your mom?

Not feeling great and frustrated that the hospital still hasn't called to schedule her surgery.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, Matt. I hope they get their act together and take care of her soon. Health~ma

Happy Birthday, Dana!

Yay for good dental exams!

Matt - that's so frustrating in top of the worry for your mom. I'm sorry.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

That is a very difficult spot to be in, Matt.

What is even happening?

Waiting is awful. I hope your mom hears from the hospital soon, Matt.

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

Timelies all!

We went to the zoo this afternoon. We had timed passes for the Asia Trail, so we got to see the pandas.(They were in the panda house, which makes sense because it was 90 and sunny today.)

How did your son handle losing Nova? I know some kids react badly and others don't even seem to notice. Kids be weird.

I'm not sure how he's handling it. Sometimes it seems like he understands that Nova's not coming back, other times I'm not sure. He's been asking when we can get another cat. (Answer: not sure, as we'd like to see how Luna's doing without her sister and introducing a new cat can be stressful.)

He’s processing no doubt. I like having the two cats. They groom and snuggle together. Older cats aren’t particularly fond of new ones though. Tricky.
