{{Scrappy}} I am so very sorry. May your niece find heart's ease at the end of her travels.
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Thanks so much for the love and support, everyone. It truly helped me get through this week.
I posted a request in music, because we are making a mix CD of the music she liked to give to the family, and I need help.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
ooops. I forgot there was someone working in the office next door and I've got this horrible Eminem song stuck in my head. I've been singing "ba doing doing doing" at random intervals throughout the last half hour. I hope he can't hear me or at the very least has never heard that song.

I responded to the difficult client. If anybody has any 'catch a clue and leave me alone' ~ma lying around, I would be uber-grateful if you'd send it DCward. I SO want this to be something I never have to think about again.

Thanks again Laga. Your effort in contacting your mom and her words really helped get me unstuck from my panic about what horrible things this client might try to reign on me if I didn't give her what she wants.
I realized that, if I responded as if I was afraid of her, THAT would end up inspiring horrible things.
My response was framed much like your mom's suggestion. Very short and succinct.
If the third no doesn't do the trick, I will ask to speak to her lawyer. The fact is, I never heard anything that would prove her case so, yeah, unlikely to do any good.

Thanks Hon.
eta: dyslexia can be so much fun. I thought this said "PICKS up"...even after I cut and pasted it! I had this image of you stepping out from behind me and going all Louisville on the wench. But no. PACKS does not equal PICKS.
Dang. I must be tired. Time for bed.
