I just have to share a (non-buffista) friend's response to WBC: "I'm not personally religious, but having the Westboro Baptist Church protest your funeral is the surest sign you can have that you will be accepted into God's hands." Right on dude, right on.
Kaylee: So, uh, how come you don't care where you're going? Book: 'Cause how you get there is the worthier part.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

If the WBC protests my funeral then I'll be pretty certain I did something right with my life.

Angry Girl who was ready to quit yesterday texted me today and told me she loves me.
Aww. Bipolar or no, this means you did a good job with your communication.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
As long as we're talking about religion and funerals I'd like to take this moment to let any lapsed Catholics out there know: if you don't want a Catholic funeral, make sure you get yourself excommunicated.

Coming in late with tons of ma for Jilli's mom, Jilli, and all of the Family of Jilli. You're all in my thoughts.
Had a lovely time in LA! Saw my friend H, the PixDesigns, Sean, and Burrell. Yay!
Now, to pack. Again.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
If you don't want a Catholic funeral, make sure you get yourself excommunicated.
Or, you know, make sure that the people who you leave in charge of disposing of your remains when you are gone know your wishes and and are people you trust to honor them. That works, not only for avoiding a Catholic funeral, but for just about any specifications you wish to make for funerals, memorials, disposal of the remains, etc.
I had to keep editing the above. Don't know why I keep thinking of my body, after I'm dead, as "the leftovers". I guess at the point, everything important of me that remains is other's memories of me, and descendants, and any work or good deeds I've left behind, and my body is indeed just "the leftovers".
