Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

The folk retreat was good. Great weather, good music, very relaxing.

Monday, I get a call from my dad. He says that the doctors think things will happen within the next 24 hours. However, I have not heard from my dad since then, so I assume my mom's still hanging in there. It's all very stressful.

Our wings are not tired.

Very stressful. I'm sorry, Sheryl. Sending calming and comforting ~ma.

Wow Sheryl that sounds tough.

Dear NYT spelling bee: seriously, “wanna” is an acceptable word???

Xanadu, in case you were wondering, is not

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

As always, "yeet" is still not.
