I didn't even want to post anything about it because... sheesh. If I weren't me, I'd think I was Penlinding this shit.
It's just so hard to bounce back when you keep getting these calls, keep holding grieving people, looking at corpses in caskets.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Oh, sweetie. {{{Nora}}}

{{{{{Nora}}}}} I can't think of adequate words to tell you how sorry I am. ~ma to you and all your family who have had to deal with way too much lately.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
because... sheesh. If I weren't me, I'd think I was Penlinding this shit.Nah, life just occasionally kicks us all in the metaphorical 'nads. I had two funerals on one day and moved states two days later. It was a clusterfuck and was the third funeral that month, two at my parent's house. Clust.Er.Fuck.
I am just so sorry you and Tom are going through this, Nora.

Thanks, guys.
Thankfully I don't need to take any time off from work (the family is local to me) so I don't have to be That Worker taking off scads of time for various funerals to the point of eye rolling disbelief.
AH! Must... turn....off...Law & Order....marathon!!!!!!!! Gotta go to bed.

Our wings are not tired.
{{Nora and family}} I'm so sorry you have had so much loss this year.
My sister told me earlier today that her friend's granddaughter (age 14) had overdosed and died a couple days ago. At a party. Her friends thought she was asleep. Scary.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I am shoe shopping. I need new basic shoes for work, and DH gave me a gift certificate to Zappos.com, so...
Unfortunately, I have annoying feet. They are hard to fit (wide toe, narrow heel, low arches, this weird knobby bit on top that means any shoe that covers my whole foot as opposed to just my toes has to be adjustable, as in some kind of lace or buckle), and I wear custom orthotics.
So, be warned, these aren't pretty shoes. I'm looking for a practical brown or black shoe that'll go with almost anything. Here are the candidates:
Thoughts?
