Having trouble logging into my account. Can I come by and pay stabling dues in person? Also, need to get Flea a new brush. He ate the last one. Most of it. Thanks.

Also, he doesn't like being stabled next to anyone but Stan. He's picky about friends. Not sure where he gets it from.

Question. Those of you with dreams. How do you know what's a capital D dream versus an overactive imagination?

I don't know if you knew this, Dunhaven, but today is apparently National Spouse's Day. I didn't know this was a thing, probably because I am behind on most things thanks to things like Homework and Reading and Wanting To Be A Doctor. However, if there is one thing that I can get behind, it's a holiday that celebrates spouses. And while every day might be Appreciate Your Spouse Day in the McKinnon household, I'm all here for sprinkling on a little extra love and attention to mine.

Because, I don't know if you knew this, but my husband is amazing. He's smart and he's funny and he's talented beyond all reason, but he's also kind and compassionate and the best sort human that any human could strive to be. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have not only caught his attention when we were fourteen-year-old nerds, but that he still loves me so entirely now that we're 22-year-old nerds. Getting married at 18 might not be the right choice for everyone, but it certainly was for us and I'm happy every day that we were impulsive.

SO anyway. I love you, Miles. 🤟🏾

Okay, now everyone go off and appreciate their spouses, too. Or your significant others. Or your pets. Or your friendly local pizza delivery guy. I don't know, just spread the love because the world can't have enough of that, as far as I'm concerned.

( Her heart thudded hard against her ribs, but it wasn't panic or fear that she felt this time. )

Hello, friends! With it being two weeks into 2020, I've been working pretty steadily on my planner and getting all of my exciting dates for the new year sorted out. I like having things to look forward to, especially since I'm packing my last semester of undergrad full of credits, and one of those things I'm looking forward to is this five year anniversary that I will be celebrating in March. Thinking about it has me all full of warm fuzzies and since it's been a while since I did one of these open forum sort of things, now seems like a good time.

So, here's my question! What is your meet cute? AKA how did you meet your partner? Give me all of the heart eyes with your stories, please and thank you.
