Got my driver's license renewed today (or, as Texas insists, driver license.) Nothing says dystopia quite so much as the renewal form asking you to donate to help process sexual assault kits.
I'm a big girl. Just tell me.

Sooooo Dad is back in the hospital. He won a trip in an ambulance yesterday because he passed out from GI bleeding. I took today off because I'm going to go visit, of course, even tho' the hospital is 50+ miles from us. (Which is inconsequential, because my Dad.)
We won't be heading out until late afternoon, and I'm feeling some residual guilt that I took today off even tho' I could have been around the first half of the day. Even tho' I know that I wouldn't have been able to concentrate or get anything done.
You would think I was raised Catholic with the constant background murmur of guilt in my head.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh dear, Atropa! Best wishes for your Dad. And back off, guilt murmurs!
Dana, that is disturbing

Atropa, tons of ~ma for your dad. I’m sorry.

It's time to don the party hats and send up a cheer because it is Javachik's birthday! I hope you are spoiling yourself and having a wonderful day. May the year to come be filled with joy.

Happy Birthday Javachick!
We are on the train from New Haven down to New York so that we can catch our flight out of JHK to Shannon tomorrow.
It was a very nice week in CT. A wonderful celebration of Bill's life, and we finishing up scattering the remainder of his ashes off the coast last night.
