Gale was here!

[conuly]

*huggles* Man, I love Gale-y. She's like my big sister, except, unlike Jenn, she can't scare people. And yet, oddly, she works for the Department of Defense (I think). Somebody there has her head screwed on right. So we talked, and we cuddled Ana, and we moved away from the crazy-loud mothers, hers and ours (mine and Jenn's), and we all got to hear about how I'm so very much like Gale and how everybody kept saying that even before we had paper diagnoses of AS, the two of us... well, I don't, but that's because I'm a lazy fuck and don't remember to get things in writing. And Gale got a long-ass lecture on "you need to go to bed" and eye contact. Let's see. Crosscountry trip, wedding tomorrow (not hers), she's with family and friends-like-family, and she's getting lectured. I don't care what Miss Barbara says, but as for my mom, I wanted to scream. Gale! Adult! Makes own decisions! URG!!!!!!

Oh well. We had Sri Lankan food. And hugged. And talked. Did I mention I love my family?
