We're actually having lasagna! Normally, we're a traditional turkey household, but we needed something that could feed multiple people but NOT leave a lot of leftovers because we're leaving for FL on Saturday.

Thank you for this moment of genuine connection. And if I, who luckily doesn't lack for connection, am this moved, I can only imagine how important & impactful this message is to others

Thank you for your kindness & empathy, as well as your hard work & dedication

It USED to be, "Keelah se'lai, my friend" and I'm bereft.

I like how we were all willing to fund it. "YOU NEED THIS IS YOUR LIFE (and also it's the only way we might be able to find you when you *vanish off the fuckin' map*)" 🤣🤣🤣

You gotta almost feel bad for him*. Like, imagine knowing you have less charisma than any other member of your family and that includes the corpses AS corpses!

(*This said for comedic effect. You should not feel bad for him at all )
