Same with my dad. (The surgery, not the spiders. So far as I know, anyway.)
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

I've had cataract surgery for both eyes and it was the easiest surgery I've ever had. Being awake during surgery was a little weird but that was the only issue.

I’ve bought an $80 doormat. Those nice water hog ones from ll bean in the big sizes, like 4x6? Essential if you get snow. (But I am known to be boring.)

Our wings are not tired.
I bought my son this doormat for $14, and he loves it: [link] However, this is inside an apartment building, where they have the serious snow and yuck-capturing ones at the main entrance.
It was pretty cool that I could get the consult for the cataract surgery next week. The sooner the better.

Helpful to know, flea! I have zero doormats so my perspective is, no doubt, extreme.

My current doormat was $14.99, but a: it was half-off; and b: it's on the covered porch and comes after the large, hardcore mat that we got when we had dogs. A regular doormat gauntlet (we also have one on a low spot on the path to the house).

They live in a high-rise apartment building in Virginia.
To be fair, they’re moving into a nice new apartment after years in a nearby apartment that was honestly kind of a dump. But it’s also the only thing on his list. So I stand by my saltiness. Which is mostly in good humor.
My all-time favorite doormat (which IIRC was actually a Christmas present) was this one: [link]

Our doormat says "Hope you like dog hair"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
JZ got the Good Place doormat: "Welcome! Everything is Fine."
And, you know, everything has NOT been fine so I find myself in disagreement with the doormat every time I come home, but don't want to get rid of it since Jacqueline got it.
Also, Matilda spilled a big latte all over it and it has a big stain.
So that's the story of our doormat.

Everything is Fine was always a lie, though. Having a big latte stain kinda makes it better.
brenda's doormat is a good one
