Oh, Maria-- I am so, so sorry, sorella. I cannot even begin to imagine what or how you must be feeling. Know that you have all my thoughts and coping ~ma.
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
When did you hear?
About five? Honestly I saw on the NY Times. Talked to my mom around six but she was in the middle of the desert driving to a meeting so she didn't even know if her area was affected.
I am shocked at how little of a story it was too. The East Coast lost power eight years ago and it was top story... This happened and I couldn't find news most places. Which might be perception on my part but it was weird. Especially since it wasn't a particularly balmy day from what I saw.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
So sorry, Maria.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Thanks, everyone. I don't know what to say either. I'm so far beyond numb it's scary.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, no, sorella. We love you. We're here for you. You're allowed to be numb. You can react any way you need to or no way at all.
