every statue in town came to life [ongoing]

When; Lunchtime! December 6.

Summary; Donna takes Tony up on the offer to take her and the spawn out to lunch and to see some dinosaurs at the zoo. Because there are dinosaurs here.
Log;

It's been a while since Donna was on her own, doing things on her own - sometimes when she slows down she's not sure there was ever really a time before that she was 100% independent. And maybe she's not, now, with a safety net of strangers. It's crazy, though, running around this apartment she's claimed and trying to find things she didn't even have yesterday to get organized with Sirja.

"Baby, baby, don't do that," she says, anxious without heat, unused to single parenthood and mainly concerned that without someone watching her she's going to fuck it up. Do the wrong thing, say the wrong thing, forget something she ought to know, make a dumbass kid mistake - but Sirja's such a good baby and she's a good fucking mother. And she worries too much, which is what this isn't about: "We're gonna see dinosaurs, how's that sound to you? Dinosaurs? Baby girl wanna see some dinosaurs? So let Mommy put your goddamn shoes on, okay?"

She twists her ring around her finger and thinks maybe an hour was a generous estimate. No - they'll be on time. She's good at this. She's got this. There's nothing Donna's better at than being unabashedly bigger than life.
