BECAUSE DREAMS DON'T HAVE A CARE

Because I talked about this on Discord, but not here: Dad broke his ankle last Friday 😬 After slipping on some ice, he initially thought it was a sprain, but Mom talked him into visiting Urgent Care where they got the correct diagnosis. On Monday, I took him to the hospital for an update, where they said that on this coming Tuesday, they'll need to surgically put a pin in the broken bone. After that, he'll be in a cast or boot for about six weeks.

Since Dad also has some Santa Claus gigs, he's been going in his boot and, at Mom's suggestion, telling people that Dancer stepped on his foot while trying out some new moves. I took him to a couple of Santa gigs today, where he was very well received; his final gig of the year is tomorrow afternoon, and then after that he's done being Santa for the year (and his leg should be better well before next December 😛)


In other news, I'm not really on the Book of Faces, but I have been communicating a bit more with the aunt I went to visit last March. I told her that I went back to school and expected to graduate this semester, and she apparently spread the news herself, because today I got a congratulatory card from a different aunt—with a check in it 😮 I've already got a thank-you note for her written and waiting in the mail box, though I don't know if I'll have the chance to deposit the check before Monday; I've got work tomorrow and Sunday.


I think that's about it for now; will blog more later ✌

A keystone can only work if all of the other stones in the arch hold it up.

Social Problems final was today, and this was my project: A short, chutes-and-ladders-style game about information security online.

Only one final paper left, and it's not due until early Friday afternoon. I think I'll probably try and get it written tomorrow, when I'm not working on laundry 😂
