Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

“Not dead yet!”
Daaaaaaaamn. That's, like, my whole adolescence.
Aw man, no kidding.

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
I'm finding myself surprisingly moved by John Hughes' death.

RE: John Hughes. Yep. Heart attack. Heard about it at work (one of the hazzards of working here I suppose).

Aaand, nobody's here. I do know my former boss & her husband, my realtor, one of my less conversational coworkers and lisah have said they'll come. Other friends? NSM. Guess that happens in the summer.

John Hughes was 59. Way too young.
Around here, at least, no one arrives on time. There's always that 20 minutes of blank time in which I think, "Do I start drinking now?"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We have never thrown a party where my (very prompt) husband did not spend the first hour pacing while telling me that no one was going to come. But people always come late.

It looks like English. And yet, it makes no sense.
