Oh, Beverly. Strength and peace to you and yours. {{hugs}}
(I probably won't be checking b.org while I'm gone: may you all have a safe and pleasant week.)
My whole life, I've never loved anything else.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Stop talking about moving to PDX. If more Buffistas moved there I might be convinced, and I HATE MOVING.I've done my part. Who's with me?
It's the airport abbreviation for Portland. And somehow it got expanded to mean the whole city.
I don't know if it's actually common outside of geek circlesI hear and see it *everywhere* since moving to PDX. Then again, we've got a lot of geeks.

Beverly - your family is in my thoughts.
Safe travels Consuela.
I slept in, said screw work and decided I could miss church and be ok. Maybe I will make it in for a yoga class though. maybe.
so far I've showered and had cereal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm on hold with the airline to confirm my flight. They don't have a record of my reservation because I booked through Cheapseats.com. YIKES!
Yikes indeed! Good luck.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Apropos of nothing, are there any Buffistas in Charlottesville, VA?
Just saw this. I don't think there are, though there are UVA grads. I live near Dulles Airport, and I think I'm closest.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Watching Finding Nemo and making dark chocolate cupckaes and ganache.
Speaking of Nemo I've been pondering that I can't think of many animated movies which have featured a mother-child relationship at the core.
We saw Monster House yesterday and it was much better than I expected. We saw the 3-D version and the effects were spectacular. Even without the 3-D though, it was beautifully made and detailed, and much scarier than expected.
I enjoyed it a lot more than I enjoyed Cars, which I'm thinking will be one of Pixar's least loved pictures. Which is unfortunate since I actually know somebody that worked on it. Oh well, they'll bounce back with Ratatouille.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Wasn't it a father-child relationship in Nemo?
Sleeping Beauty has the most archetypal fucked-up stepmother-child relationship, but I'm thinking that's not exactly what you meant, Hec.
