Oh, Susan. Lots of hugs. Can you go see your parents? I know you were there not long ago (or I think you were) and I don't want to add any pressure if you can't, but being far away from them now will be hard.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, Susan. I'm so very sorry. Much punctuation to you and your father and your whole family. I'm so glad that you got that last good visit with him a few weeks back and that you got to share him and Annabel with each other, but that must be small, cold comfort now. I'm just so very sorry.
But if you can bear it, be kind and comforting to yourself about the petty little things, too. It'll help with the huge heartache.
All my prayers are with your family.

What is even happening?
Mom just called. Dad is dying. I don't know how much longer they think he has--didn't want to ask. But his mind is starting to go, he can't walk well or feed himself, and they're going to start having hospice nurses in every day. I don't understand how this happened, after the tests showed him cancer-free. It seems like it's the chemo that's killing him.
Oh, honey, I'm so sorry. How much longer does he have on the chemo? Are they stopping it?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, Susan. I'm so so sorry.

Oh, Susan, I'm so sorry. Hugs and prayers.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What Cass and the others said, Susan.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm sorry Susan. Peace be with you and your family.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Oh, Susan. I'm so sorry.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Susan, I'm so damn sorry. Punctuation to you and your family.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Susan, I'm so sorry. You, and your family, are in my thoughts and prayers.
