Ugh. The pain of a Christmas budget fake-out sucker-punch, plus unexpected Dr. Visit bills is one of those things that is hard to put into words. Absolutely necessary, but emotionally (not logically) frustrating when the doctor tells you what you already knew, and you get charged $80.00 for it, when you already can't go out to eat this month 'cause budget fail!
Unrelated: you three dragons* that hang out around here: is there any particular time of day your hordes sit completely open and unguarded? Just curious.
* Sharoth, Drejk, and captain yesterday. What? Don't give me that look. You and I both know that he either has a dragon alias or has used a dragon picture at some point in his career and if he hasn't, he might as well have.

Just get the family together, drive to California, and we'll feed you.
I just picture the Beverly Hillbillies. Except with lion heads. And from Florida.

Daggummit, FaWtL, you guys are basically the best.
I wish it to be known that we are well and all is good.
I am frustrated because my eldest longs to go to Taco Bell and is trying to be really good so he can earn a privilege I don't know if we're currently able to afford.
(Also, dang it, I wish to live the life to which I've become accustomed!)
I was mostly just venting. I actually really appreciate the doctors checking out our son, and am very glad that he's totally fine. I'm kind of embarrassed.
You guys are all incredibly sweet.
(But, you know, if you guys happen to know about a dragon horde that is just left ungarded and unlooted... >.> ... preferably not a vindictive dragon, and maybe one that's already dead...)
No one's fault but ours - and mostly mine - but you guys are all awesome.
I heart you FaWtL.

Ah, the famed Orlando swamp-lions! Our secret identity and carefully* has been found out!

Yeah, different worlds and all that, but last year we managed to spend ourselves into such a corner that we had $60 in immediate liquid assets as of December 30 (2015).
It's never a good feeling, even when we knew that we were getting our combined paychecks the next day to get quite a bit of "breathing room".
Thoughts are with you, TL!

A very old school Star Wars Canon.
Darth Vader, being among the greatest warriors in the Galaxy, and being ''mostly machine now' was ambidextrous.
In the Original Trilogy, when using The Force, you see him motion with his left had as often as he does with his right.
For example, in The Empire Strikes Back he blocks Hans blaster bolts with his right hand, gestures with his left, and catches the blaster with his right.

Fun Fact
Proponents of the Mandela Effect (Google it) use James Earl Jones quote and our own universal memory of that great scene from The Empire Strikes Back as proof of the theory.
What we and millions remember:
'Luke, I am your father!'
What was really said on screen:
'NO! I am your father!'
I suspect that this happens as a method to give ourselves context.
For example, "No! I am your father!" Is, really, in the end, just a generic set of sentences, that could be said by approximately half the population to approximately half the population. However, when combining it with an iconic element that does not appear within the generic statement itself, that extra added element becomes an anchor, of sorts, that enables the mind to place the quote within context. Far fewer people are named Luke, then the number of people that have fathers, and, there is far less reason for people to say that they are the fathers princesses or other parental units), and so between those two events tied together, it becomes a defining anchor for the just of the memory, rather than the specifics. Thus the anchor, and the jest, is retained, even as the actual quote is misplaced. But that's just a guess.

It's downstairs in the cellar. You will go down the stairs (first light switch is on the right wall) from the entrance to the building, turn to your right (second light switch is on the right just behind the corner) , go to the end of a very short corridor, and it will be the wooden door to your left. Remember that my hoard is masked with an illusion that makes it all look like a pile of trash so take absolutely everything. You can dispel the illusion later and enjoy your trash spoils when you are safe from my gratitude for cleaning my cellar wrath for stealing my hoard!
Oh, if I will know when you won't be coming to clean my trash steal my hoard I can take the padlock for... Uh, cleaning. Yeah. It'd a shame if it was broken, it's decent padlock.

Well, I think this combines sports AND politics, so they cancel each other out, and Freehold will be happy, right?
And the numbers make it clear who the administration will listen to:
Total ticket revenue: $9.3 million
TV contract revenue: $25 million
So it's honestly better for them to do whatever the TV sponsors tell them to do, and play in front of an empty stadium.
*SIGH*

True story: I am so fed up with local politics I will run for office...
...the moment I'm not raising two kids, running 3 campaigns, and trying to repair a house that has used the rains as an excuse to reveal its true and horrifying nature.
Heck if I'll ever join a party, though, so I doubt I'll ever get beyond Albany...
