I'm so sorry, DJ. Thinking of you.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

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

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, DJ, honey - that's all so, so hard. In particular, this:
in addition to losing that person, I don't have him here for his passing.
has me all teared up at my desk, because it's just such a deep kind of loneliness. Lose your shit as needed.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
{{{Daisy Jane}}} I can tell from your post what a great guy Bobby was. I'm very sorry you are feeling so alone. I'm glad we can lend some virtual comfort so at least in here you've got somebody.

I'm so sorry, DJ. If there's anything I can do, please let me know.

Thanks, Nora. I'm sure I will be fine and all, just apparently not today.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I sent out an email saying I didn't want to do this early push to production because I was sure it would cause us grief. In fact, my exact words were, "I am extremely concerned that this is going to cause us grief. I understand if it has to get done, it has to get done, but I foresee problems."
Now everyone is freaking out that stuff is up 14 hours early.
I'm fucking Cassandra over here.

Argh. My flight to Frankfurt is delayed three hours. Which is fine (I get to hang out in the first class lounge here?) except it means I'll miss my flight to Vienna. And then the counter lady checking me in said she couldn't fix it, and I could either come to the lounge or get in a different long line (Bo separate line for first or business either). So I come to the lounge (past security and in another terminal) and the lounge lady says she can't even see hat the next flights would be--and that the checkin lady says she told me to get in the other line. WTF? She sai shed try to fix it on the phone. But still. I have been emailing with my brother who is meeting Me there, and he switched his bus to later but has no idea when I'll get there so hard to meet me !!!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Oh, Daisy. I'm sorry about your uncle, and I'm sorry everything is so stressful and distressing. I echo the virtual hugs and scotch.
ION, my co-worker shamed me into calling my doctor, and when I told the receptionist about the hurting lungs and shortness of breath (which I am NOT having right now...or, at least, not as bad as on Saturday), she asked me to hold for a minute. And when she came back she asked if I could come in at 4:45 today, because they were concerned about the shortness of breath.
So, okay. Perhaps some doctoring is called for.
