My sister has taken a turn for the worse. Prayers or vibes or good thoughts if you have them would be welcome. This may just be a reaction to the chemo, but we'll know more later.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I don't deserve it based on my board presence lately but please send some easy passing ~Ma for my grandma in oklahoma. We've had a running gag that she's my favorite grandma (because she's been my only one since I was 1yr old). I'm very lucky to be sitting by her bed.

Thank you. It worked as Ma always does. She went peacefully and that's all I could ask.

I have a new piece up at Hilobrow on Nathanael West, best known as the author of Day of the Locust but a fascinating confabulist and all-around intriguing guy.
Please to click the FB Like at Hilobrow, and/or retweet if you are inclined. Danke schoen.

I'm taking a big risk, career-wise today.
Please, could I have some 'it's going to be awesome and we can't wait to get it out there' ~ma at 1pm DC time?
I'll say more when I can, and would appreciate all the good thoughts possible.

I have a closing date set for Nov. 6ht, y'all. It's almost over. I just have to get the homeowners policy taken care of an it's all done but for the signing.
Then I have to get my stuff out of storage, and it'll all be over. I can't wait (though dealing with my stuff is going to be a slog given the amount of space I've gone down to.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
My sister Liz passed away today early in the morning, at 4:30 am.
I was hoping to let everyone know about it sooner, but I've been running around like crazy all day. She wanted to be interred traditionally, so a quick burial. My other sister and I have spent the whole day arranging her internment, taking care of banking, etc. And crying.
She was not always easy to love, but she lived life large. And for those in her circle, she showered them with love and affection and she has a hugely devoted group of friends.
