AUGUST! CHANGE THAT TO AUGUST!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks guys. I'm shaken and can't imagine how everyone else is taking it. I hope to do something terribly mindless tonight and get as distracted as possible.

Zenkitty, if you really feel you must spend your money, I vote you make a donation to a worthy charity in the name of the baby. The nearest Children's Hospital for example. Explain to the parents that you didn't want to clutter up their house with more stuff and you knew they'd appreciate this meaningful gesture.
I completely agree with Sparky.
Then flip 'em off.
On both counts.
Jesus - that was terrible typo.
I am so curious. However, I know, at least, that it wasn't September because September is a wonderful, glorious month, even getting it's rain out of the way early. Hint.

ita, I'm sorry to hear about the loss of Marni to her family, friends and your krav community. Something mindless (and, if possible, beautiful) sounds like a good idea.

What is even happening?
Matt, I'm so glad to read the good news about your dad! YAY!

I'm sorry, ita. Both for the loss to the krav community and to you in particular.

That's so sad. I'm sorry, ita.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm shaken and can't imagine how everyone else is taking it.I am so sorry for both your and the entire centre's loss, ita.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
People I care very much for are hurting. I don't deal well with that sort of thing at all. Not really your font of calm and comfort.
They're closing the centre on the day of her funeral (Sunday), which is a bit of a relief. I was prepared to go in and teach all the krav classes so other people could go to the service, but I'm glad to have an opportunity to pay my respects at the same time.
God. People. Pain. August.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
God, ita, that's really sad.

Just popping in to mention - someone mentioned "brown" ladybugs a while ago. Check carefully - they might be carpet beetles. The adults eat dead things. The larvae eat natural fibers. I found this out the hard way.
Toddson, how do I check??? It looked exactly like a ladybug.
SO glad people are sharing in the Sandra Lee hate. You people make me laff.
I'm thinking that everything Giada de Laurentis eats must go entirely into her giant head.
Seriously.
When I was talking about Sandra Lee at work the other day, my coworker was saying that no one she knows watches Food Network. I was like, Dude. Everyone watches Food Network! I am glad to see I was right. (Coworker is mid-20s and skinny (and beautiful) like a model, so I can see where none of her friends watch it.)
