Someone, please, distract me. There isn't enough at work right now to do so, and I should not be left alone with my thoughts at the moment, because I really don't want to start crying (again) at my desk.
Jilli, I think you should buy the book of Edward Gorey interviews
Ascending Peculiarity
because he was always a very cool and fascinating oddball, and I think you'd really like his story.
He was roommates with (the great poet) Frank O'Hara in college and was an obsessed balletomane who never missed a New York City Ballet performance for 17 years. Can you imagine how cool it was in the 70s to see him over at the sidebench at the ballet during intermission, holding court in his giant fur coat, earrings, beringed fingers and sneakers?
Also, this is very beautiful.
Also, You need the Pirate Playing card set that we use at Chez Zmayhem.
I think you need this movie poster.
Ewan McGregor in makeup!

Oh Jilli, I am so sorry. I don't think I had a chance to say something before.

I have been meaning to. Of course, right now I'm re-reading all the Harry Potter books, because they're good, distracting comfort reads.
Aaaaaand I just found out that am going to have a minor surgical proceedure on my birthday. Which is crappy timing, but no more cramps for the rest of my life is a pretty good birthday gift to myself.
Now I just need enough days to have passed that I'm not constantly missing my cat. I can't even imagine what Aimée is going through.
Oh love. Losing someone is hurty no matter if it's a beloved kitty or a beloved Grampy.
And yes, days need to go by quicker.
I'm making brownie sundays for dinner. Who wants to join us?

ohgodyesplease.
Even tho' I am trying to avoid comfort-eating right now. Whic really isn't a problem, 'cos when I'm really upset, food is not at all interesting. But brownie sundaes sound so. freaking. good.
Comfort eating is ok.
I ate 1/2 my grandmothers left over halloween candy in about 5 minutes.
She had 7 bags leftover.
Did you eat the chocolate absinthe bar yet, Jilli? I was curious how that would taste.
Wow, Hec, can't even imagine.
