What an amazing man, David, and that was a wonderful tribute. At least Emmett will learn about his grandad from you. He's very lucky you cared enough to learn and save all those facts. Condolences to EM and Emmett, and to you.

[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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Such a good story, Hec. Condolences to you and EM.
I'm on the first day of my gym's six-week diet program. I've had plenty of food today, so I'm not hungry, but a piece of chocolate would be about the best thing ever right now. Must be strong!
Please to commence with any hairpats now.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Hec, I am so sorry for EM and Emmett's impending loss. What a stressful time they, and you guys, are going through. He sounds like an amazing man. Hopefully, between you and EM, you 'll be able to get everything down for Emmett to have one day.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Cass, your adventures with insomnia continue to mimic some of mine.They suuuuuuck.
Also suck? I really need to make my holiday travel reservations. Do I want to? Not so much.

Sara is jumping up and down, clapping and shrieking. "Look!!! It's snowing! I love snowing! It's SNOWING!!!!"
God, I wish I could share her enthusiasm. We got just a dusting last night, but it is bitter cold here today, and it is snowing like hell itself out there now.
So not ready for winter.

Update from the toddler, who has parked herself by the window:
"It's even SNOWER [sic] ! Than ever and ever!"
Oh good.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That is a very cool post about a cool person, Hec. I hope there are a lot of stories about him EM (and you) can tell Emmett.
