Wow Jinx, I had no idea. Guess it's not that disconcerting after living with it for a while, you learn to deal, but I understand your concerns for the limitations they might encounter in the future. There are so many amazing parents in Teh Cellar - I only hope I could/can live up to this standard if/when Princess OTR encounters any such difficulties.

I do daily, and say thanks that I don't.

What is upsetting me most is the stupidly early time I must get up tomorrow, and that we must battle the michigan game traffic to get our everyday stuff done. beyond that, it's pretty much all good

I have been awake for 24 hours. At work. And there is no end in sight. That is all.

Dani your post made me cry.
You know I'm sentimental about my father (less and less now I live with the cantankerous old bugger!) and I have huge issues around food.
The story could not have been better pitched to affect my tear ducts.

But your Dad was a stubborn and proud man.
I doubt he suffered as much as you have over the incident.
I'm so sorry for your sake, but you shouldn't torture yourself. If any vestige of him remained he'd be mortifed that you did. And I think he's gone to a plce with no more suffering and no more recriminations. Your memories are where he lives on - they shouldn't be bad ones.

Jinx - I had no idea. Sorry for the bad news.
All I can say is at least they are smart.
Brains are more useful than physical perfection, unless you want to be a model.
Oh, and perhaps not in the event of a zombie attack, when they are simply a comestible.

Love to you and yours anyway, your kids have a great grounding in how to be successful and get the best from life.

Selene and I *both* have the flu, possibly H1N1, but they didn't actually do strain tests.

This is not fun. Definitely putting the kibosh on a nice Thanksgiving.

Having computer (hardware) programs. Yeah, pretty minor stuffs compared to what everyone else is going through, but this is really pissing me off. :p Computer has been showing one problem after another for the past several days. It's only 1 1/2 yr. old so no, I shouldn't have to need a new one.

By the way, Elspode, I hope you and Selene(your wife?) feel better soon. My friend's mom just passed away from complications caused by the H1N1 flu so hearing anyone having that is just unsettling for me.

The NY State Senate in Albany just voted against gay marriage.

We had to fire someone today. I like her too. Normally I'm not involved much in that stuff, but this time I had to go get her key from her and her company credit card. Sucks. Bad time to be fired.
