Mom is home sick today.

Stupid experimental treatments, stupid incurable diseases, stupid timelines, stupid suffering, stupid uncertainty, stupid vulnerability.

And, while I'm on a roll: stupid seasonal depression, stupid being 1200 miles away from the dearest person I know, stupid tummy ache that kept me up all night, stupid headache, stupid drama, stupid mlphillips.com tantrum.

The cat better be extra cute today...you know, like this.
