Between the water and the factories that have become houses
That my godchild turned fifteen today is not proof of linear time, but I rejoice in it. He is a long-limbed treasure with zero chill. I have been shown evidence of him celebrating a successful escape room with milkshakes and cookies and friends.
spatch's foot was not broken by the speaker which fell onto it yesterday, just bone-crunched and blood-bruised in the ways for which elevation and painkillers are recommended. It does show evidence of an old healed injury that delightfully caused his X-ray results to come up "Abnormal." Paging Marty Feldman.
I have secured what looks like a romantic espionage thriller from 1949 that I had no idea existed until last night when I heard a mid-century radio speedrun of it and my plan for the rest of the evening is to read it and not move. The winter storm is still currently raining.

He tried something new at hot pot, but tteokbokki took him down texturally and the rest of the meal was ramen only!!, and his --friends gave me a run for my money on sheer numbers of little velveted shrimp. Apparently E. has six cats (Gardnerians!) and A. has taken to referring to you as Aunt S in the wild.
DEAR UNIVERSE, IT WOULD SEEM CHILL IS NOT A HERITABLE TRAIT.

Aw! I am delighted by that. Tteokbokki was a brave try for a birthday. Now I wish I had all those little velveted shrimp.

Clearly it was the day for it - my sister asked me to move the wheelie bins, the last one of which got away from me, pivoted on its wheels and the handle neatly speared the middle toe on my right foot, which is now one solid bruise from front to rear. Fortunately it stopped aching after a few hours - though I think the aching was mostly the rest of the foot arching itself into a contorted position to stop anything else catching my poor abused toe.

Ack! I hope it is feeling much better by now.

He put his foot up as soon as he came home from work and it seems to be doing better, but I will pass your sympathy on!

It's very fun knowing fifteen-year-olds--hurray for your godchild! Who needs chill, anyway?

He's doing much better! We went for a walk this afternoon which would not have been possible two days ago.

Chill is totally overrated. Knowing fifteen-year-olds is beyond price.
