Well the good news is the storms tonight make severe weather during the day tomorrow slightly less likely.

My Boy's headstone is - finally - ready; HOWEVER -- they are going to have to wait "until the ground is a bit drier" before they can install it. I just want him to have it before his birthday on the 27th. At least they didn't screw it up a third time. It does help some to know that it's ready. Extremely annoyed at my best friend who, not intending to be a bitch she says, used the word "antzy" to describe my feelings on it's continuing delay. More storms moving in overnight into tomorrow. High winds, moderate risk of night-time quick spin-up tornadoes (those that pop up and dissipate quickly), and half-dollar sized hail.

That's where my Boy worked - was good at it too, if I can brag on him a bit. But I have to agree with molly - not my place to linger; too many fragrances and people.

Finally realized that I'm going to have to finish painting the loft the same way I started: playing songs of love and loss, grieving for my boy, and loosing myself in the painting. It's the only way the loft can get done and -- more importantly -- I think it's one of the things that has to be closed for me to let him go. Though I should have left Rebecca Ferguson's version of "I'll Count the Days" off the playlist. 😭 The other is for his headstone to finally be installed. Sent an email to the friend I'd been talking to. A couple of weeks ago she said it would a week or two before the 3rd one [since they F*d the first two] would be ready; then FOUR to SIX WEEKS before it got installed. I'm still hoping it's there in time for his birthday on Memorial Day. Finished the first coat and stopping for lunch, pain Rx (storms moving in), and a Xanax (because I'm not so stupid as to not realize I need one).

I think he tried to make them clear in this little encounter, in his own awkward way -- they just don't trust each other (and themselves) to believe what the other is saying, and to read between the lines to the meaning behind what they are saying.

I think Bunny Boy will get what he wants before too long -- doing the same the Heath that just got done to him.

I've been up almost two hours too long finishing a story that I couldn't stop reading. Midnight snack time, then bed. 📖

If he broke something I'd kiss it to make it better. 👅

The company I stumbled across was Emisil -- their "3rd gen STP" was €417.00; their most expensive was €535 (not a STP) with not only the 16 skin tones but 16 hair colors and "a nice, low-hanging 360° scrotum, with two movable floating testicles." Their cheapest was still about was €200.00.

Lol - could watch him sort laundry all day.

I had to look up packers, something I'd never really given much thought about -- the highly realistic silicone STP ones are horribly expensive aren't they?! I was, however, very pleased to see the site I found had them in 16 different skin tone variations. When I was dating my first bf, ages and ages ago, one of his friends was pre-op FTM who still used "she." She couldn't wait to get what she referred to as "the unnatural growths" off her chest. Was lucky enough to be dating a woman who was able to see her as the masculine soul she was.

Forgive the pun but suitably impressed by my suit consultation today. Getting a nice light charcoal in a wool/silk blend. Gentleman took several measurements and I left feeling confident that when the suit arrives in a week or so there won't be that much "fine tuning" to do for it to fit perfectly. And the total cost is going to be less than I expected, so that's a bonus!

Re-read this. Love the interaction w. Azrael in their garden, and missed what has to be a rarely granted gift -- allowing Diego to go there at any time he wishes. 💖

Spring in Oklahoma near the peak of storm season -- its a crap weather couple of weeks. Several storms last week and several more possible this week.

Sounds like a lovely morning.

It's hard when you reach the age you have to start caring for your parents, instead of them caring for you.

INTP is what mine normally comes up as; It can very depending on when you take it and what version.

Stay safe. We're getting a respite from severe weather here today, but it will be back in force tomorrow.

My first boss where I currently work -- on my 1yr anniversary -- gave me a small plaque that read, "Wait a moment. I have to put on my, "Gosh I Really Care" face. I still have it hanging in my office (along with quotes from Nietzsche, Jung, and His Holiness the Dalai Lama).

I'm going to need it faster than I expected or wanted -- I have an Aunt who had a major stroke a few days ago. They're moving her back to a nursing home near the facility she used to live in for hospice care. 😢

Well, "Starving Artist" is a tired trope so...... Very happy for you on the new job. And I'm sure we'll understand if the chapters take longer to get out, regardless of how disappointing that may be.

2" of rain yesterday but we missed the severe stuff yesterday; unfortunately, 1 of the 10 tornadoes in the state yesterday caused a death & there was a death due to flooding. Storms later this afternoon for here should just be high wind with the possibility of hail. And then another chance of severe weather tomorrow. How I love spring.

I had a response to that but decided it was entirely inappropriate. 👅 I'll blame my pain Rx making me sleepy.

At the moment looks like the worst of it will go to the south of us. We should (knock on wood) only get heavy rain, lots of lightning and light hail. Some areas in the state have already had over 4" since this morning. You definitely want to go with a reputable dealing when looking for storm shelters. The best ones will withstand an EF5 if installed correctly.
