"I think we'll find a different beach to go to next year. We'd walk down the street & ppl would yell 'faggot!' or 'Tranny' at us."

I was heartbroken, but they were like, "It's not THAT bad; it's like that here sometimes."

#TheShyViolet said today that they want to apply for an electrician's apprenticeship!
I'M SO PROUD!
This kid is a hyper-introvert, LOVES hands-on work, & is very diligent about seeing a task through to the end.
I think they'll do a WONDERFUL job!

#TheShyViolet & I put her into a carrier, & drove her to my friend's house, who was absolutely delighted to be her new cat-dad.

I heard frantic whining and barking in a parking lot and found what was CLEARLY a 4-5week old puppy confined in a huge crate, planted on the sunny side of seat. Windows were cracked about an inch.

It's just a bent strip of metal.
IMAGINE how she'd have to step on this to slice her foot!!
I wasn't even here, I was picking up #TheMarathonRunner from an activity.

He asked, "Why don't the Vietnamese celebrate Thanksgiving?"
Later on, he thought that, "The 12 Days of Christmas," was a Hanukah song.
