As always, and repeatedly, all kinds of _ma for Karl. (including that you can be at the con, if you want)

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Health~ma to you Karl. May any effects of the event resolve swiftly and fully.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So glad to hear you are mostly good, Karl. All of the ~ma.

The financial talk was very interesting and I wish I was better at that.

Happy Cass Day! I feel like I should watch some vrooming cars and eat avocado in your honor.

The day itself was eh on account of bodies being stupid but I made it to a lovely dinner and tomorrow is vrooming cars in person and there will be guac on taquitos so I am excite.

Thank you to everyone for the nice messages.

Happy Father's Day to the Buffista Dads!

Sending love to the many who find this a painful day. It's been 5 years since my husband heard from his son on this day. We both outlived our fathers. His died at 56 and mine at 62. Both good men who are loved and missed.

Happy Father's Day, Buffista dads. Gotta work my way up to talking to mine...didn't find the right "I Love You, Anyway, You Loner Jerkoff" card.Even on etsy. Hyperbole aside, it gets longer and longer in between--we don't have much to say.
