thanks for all the kind words and good thoughts.
while i was in therapy, my sister called to tell me that Tim died His kids were there for about a half hour before he went.
I went on a bender with a friend that has known Tim through the years. I spent a LOT of money on single malt whiskey.
I still haven't cried.
Raises a glass for Nora's Uncle Tim.
I'm so glad his kids got to be there. I'm sorry that it has to happen this time of year. And I'm so sorry that it has to happen at alll.
thanks, guys.
I'm at home making calls to very shocked and sad people. I didn't sleep so well last night and i was not up for my commute.
{{{Nora}}} I'm glad you had someone with you who has known him so long. But mostly just {{{Nora}}} {{{all Tim's family}}}
Oh, Nora. I'm so, so sorry. Peace to you and your family.
Bloody, bloody hell, love.
I am so very sorry. Glad that his family did manage to get there before he was gone, but - so very sorry.
On a far more shallow note, a small cheer for the range of intresting people who are to be found over on OKCupid. One of whom (a quite charming young man whose profile I had earlier perused) has just mailed me with the following subject line:
Fay (re: Queen)
See, a bit of wordplay relating to poetry - now

what I'm talking about. And he, bless him, can indeed wax lyrical about Gaiman, Serenity, TS Eliot etc etc. AND fence.
Joe, d'you think you could step up the work on those matter transporters, love?
