"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Health~ma to erin and Steph. I empathise!

My fever hit 103 this aft, and then there was vomiting. Lovely. I'm ever so grateful to my poor Girl, who is keeping me topped up with hot drinks, and has now gone to sleep on the sofa.

smonster, I'm sorry to hear about your old colleague.

Ugh, that sucks, DCJ. I hope some kind of solution comes along.

DCJ, I'm sorry about your car situation.

Smonster, I'm sorry for your loss.

Health~ma to erin, Teppy, and Seska.

Extending the health~ma to you, Seska! Get well soon, lady.

My condolences, smonster. I had a similar thing happen a few weeks ago. I've been looking for years for a close high school friend who I'd lost touch with. The last time I talked to her was in the early 90s and found out she had cancer. Sounded like things were going as well as they could be. I finally discovered that she died in 96 (at 26 years old). So sad. Wish we could have connected again, Michelle.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I'm angry at myself because I heard he was in the hospital and didn't call, figured it was NBD. And I'm angry at health insurance, b/c I think he had the surgery to try and avoid the new punitive BMI rates.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I survived a shopping expedition for more soup and some oscillococcinum. spendy and perhaps craxy, but i'll give homeopathy a try when i feel like crap.

smonster, deny that friend request like it's on fire. no good comes from that kind of contact.

They released some 911 recordings from our omg tornado and one guy is just totally chill. It's exactly what I suspect mine would have sounded like if I were there. He was calling in because there was a barn in the road. No accidents or injuries.

it's amazing how chill people can be in really dire emergencies. i remember once on a really bad traffic accident the caller was soooo chill that at some point i asked "is anything on fire?" just as a time-filler question while i was typing something important and he was like "yeah, the tanker truck is flaming, some guy's yelling that it might explode." that was more than 90 seconds into the call...

And yet people who are calm in a crisis get dinged in court cases for not being hysterical enough, so "obviously" they didn't really care.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

DCJ, that's awful.

That is perhaps TOO chill.

I just figure that my freaking out at that moment helps no one. So calm and explain. And, um, hope there's no court case where I sound apathetic.

Still, fire should be mentioned. With a caveat from me that it was not my fault things are on fire this time.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am quite taken with the caveat to your caveat.
