Can I just say that I love me some JZ? Cuz I do.

::turns beet-red::

I'll just stand over here with Scrappy. (Hi, Scrappy, lovely to see your pixels.)

My Dad's been in the hospital since Saturday evening when he had a fall and then was very out of it. He didn't seem to hurt himself falling but they haven't figured out what's going on yet other than not a stroke. He's ok in the sense that he's not in pain and has been eating well but he's pretty confused. He keeps thinking school is starting "tomorrow"and he doesn't know what grade he's teaching yet (he's been retired from teaching for 15 years or so). I feel so bad for him. It's like a stress dream you can't wake up from.

Lisa, I’m so sorry, that sounds horrible.

I signed up for the class this morning.

From a while ago:

To be fair, the kind of work that a class is is very different than the kind of work therapy is

The class involves talking about my art, which involves opening up about myself and leaving myself open to criticism. It’s a lot more like therapy than you may think. The actual photography work I’m not worried about.

Oh, and Debet, congrats! on that thing that you mentioned on a different, green web site.

Oof, lisah, that sounds rough. Your poor dad, and you. "like a stress dream you can't wake up from" is a powerful description

Way to take a brave step, Scola! I hope it's a good experience.

Also, that personality quiz informs me I am 84% Willow Rosenberg, Tina Belcher and Will Byers and 83% Charlie from Perks, which is all quite nice, but also 81% Bran from GoT and 76% Georgiana Fucking Darcy and Buster Bluth, which HOW DARE. Also only 71% Radar O'Reilly or Chidi Anagonye, which I question. But at least only 24% Mister Wickham and 19% Gaston, so that's a relief.

I had to scroll down pretty far to get to a character/show I actually knew, but once I did I got 81% for Ben Wyatt AND Twilight Sparkle, which, honestly, I find incredibly flattering!

Awesome, Scola. Also, awesome Scola.

Lisah, sending love and healing vibes your and your dad and family's way. That is a very scary and apt description. I'm so sorry this is happening.

Also on the JZ love train.

Meara, I hope it's a no news is good news scenario... though I understand the worry.

How's new home, Scrappy?

Scola, that makes sense. And thanks, though I'm planning on waiting till things firm up a bit before talking about it because everything is stressful omg and I just cannot even with dealing with all the people.

lisah, I hope that he can get out of his loop.

I got 93% Ender Wiggin, 92% Ariadne from Inception (whose character traits I basically remember not at all), 91% Michale Scofield (Prison Break) (???), and then my 90%s: Hermione, Gandalf, Daniel Jackson (Sam Carter comes in at 89. Are they basically the same character?), and Jemma Simmons. I am also equally Remus Lupin and Elizabeth Bennet (87%) and just slightly more Jean-Luc Picard (88%). So, there's that. I would take it again to see about how the questions they sample influence the results, but that is a rabbit hole I do not need.

I don’t think I can accurately assess myself to do that quiz.

lisah, ~ma for your father.
