Happy news. Just sent an email to one of the places that collect plus-size clothes for women entering the workforce.
Just so gratifying on so many levels, you know?
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

thank you, beth.
I have been sublimating my grief by cooking. I de-fatted the turkey stock I made yesterday and made a turkey noodle soup with about half of it; put up the other half in the freezer. Since we have already decimated our leftovers, I actually got a bit of turkey thigh meat at the market today. Also, egg noodles, carrot, celery, and onion. Turned out pretty good I think.
I also made mac & cheese from scratch with chorizo. That's in the oven now.
We'll have lots of leftovers for lunches, dinners on the fly, etc. this week.
Called some people and told them about Bob. OK, one person. I will do more tomorrow maybe. Talked to my mom again; we both ended up in tears.
I hate this.
Fuck you, cancer.

Oh, also, Tom's put our annual fruitcake in the oven; I just helped him stir the batter (tradition thing I guess).
Mmm. That will come out and be spritzed with brandy every couple of days until we eat it at Christmas!
That's all that's going on here I guess. Sad and cooking. Followed, of course, by sad and eating.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Nora, I am so sorry for your family's loss.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Much peace~ma for your dad, and for all of this friend's loved ones, Nora.

Nora, the cooking therapy sounds like a wonderful idea.

Trudy, I was just keeping your bed warm for you! Honest.
