A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

So much ~ma for your dad, Calli.

Also hoping for good news for your grandmother, askye.

I"m sorry to hear that, Beth.

We also got news tonight that one of DW's family members died yesterday from a heart attack. She just got out of rehab for alcohol (and has struggled with alcohol and drugs since her teens). She was in her early 50s and has a college-aged son.

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.

I'm so sorry to hear that, GC. Much peace~ma to your DW's family.

What the pretty pregnant lady said.

I've been up since like 3:30 a.m. I want a Monday do-over.

This year is not getting off to a good start, is it?

Calli, much ~ma to you and your dad.

Askye, continued healing~ma to your grandmother.

Beth, please pass my condolences on to Matt.

Peace~ma to GC's DW's family.

Ginger, best of luck with Mr. Peabody. My mom had to go through a similar "keeping quiet" thing with the terrier mix she adopted last year (he came with a full supply of heartworms). Want me to ask her how she dealt?

Want me to ask her how she dealt?

Yes, please. I can keep him on a leash, but I can't keep him from getting excited.

I'm glad you had such an excellent birthday.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I hate that everyone seems to be going through such difficult times right now.

My new thinking (since end of 2007) is that basically there are times that life actively sucks out loud and times in between where it sucks slightly less. This pessimistic attitude has actually worked out pretty well for me, because I'm so grateful when the sucking eases up temporarily, and really get to notice and enjoy it before life gets back to sucking, which is pretty much business as usual. And I've gotten better at appreciating the smaller moments of love and calm while weathering the storm.

"Life is pain, princess. Anyone telling you otherwise is selling you something."

Huh. Until I wrote it down, I didn't realize how extensive my "life sucks" philosophy is.

And, um, I hope it doesn't seem weird to say after that that Calli, you and your dad and your family are in my thoughts. I hope so much that the day brings better news for you.

er, I am sorry if I bummed everyone out.

Maybe I just have a case of the Mondays!
