This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Dylan is all moved into his dorm! So far he and his roommate are getting along, if not BFFs. They have some shared interests (same major + theater nerd shit including D&D) and compatible sleeping preferences (cold room, fan for white noise, early risers). The morning after we moved him in, we saw him from across the street while approaching the building, and when we waved, a student on our side of the street turned around and said "Is that your kid? He KILLED it last night at karaoke!" which was very nice to hear.

The other notable moment from yesterday morning was heading into the parent & family orientation when we shook hands with with the VP of Something Involving Students Probably, she turned to me and said "So what's your major?" Upon learning that I was, in fact, the Mom, she turned to Aeryn and asked them instead (lol also no).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

"Is that your kid? He KILLED it last night at karaoke!"

So Dylan already has college on lock. Nice!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, that sounds like a great start to Dylan's college era!

Thanks for the heads up, parker, I have an appointment at CVS for both flu and COVID shots, woohoo! Assuming I can come up with my Insurance card, but I have a week to sort that out
