Silly Site o' the Day

A much-needed reset day, and I needed one where I did absolutely nothing. The Mets gave it their all but I don't think anything's going to stop the Dodgers, who now face the other New York baseball team in the World Series. But the significant thing was, right after I'd toked a bit and was in bed, I got a text then call from my brother that my mom had taken another fall, this time from her bed at the rehab center, and was at a nearby hospital. Turned out to be a nasty facial bruise but, near as the doctors can tell, nothing more serious. But quite the scare, during which tons of stuff went through my head all starting with "this is the beginning of the end, my life will now change completely again." After the scare, my brother is still planning his vacation out of the country this week, my other brother is coming in from CA on Wednesday night and will move Mom from rehab to her long-term care home on Thursday, and I'll be visiting her on Tuesday. Could life please be a bit less complicated next time? Like, the history of jack cheese or something?:
