Also, jesus, Steph's Mom, can't you say he was up on the roof first?
Ahahahahaha!!!!! I wish I had thought of that when I replied!
What did she put in the body?
"just found out - OMG! he died in his sleep last night. just talked to [cousin] -- she's with Aunt W."
I guess there's no graceful way to lead into that, but still.
Tep, I'm glad you know that joke...it'd be hard to 'splain.

I don't know. It could have been the knock knock joke.
Trying to see the half-full... nope, still not working.
Again, I'm sorry, Steph.
Oh, urgh, Steph. So sorry, but glad that Uncle Woody had a good life.
In the subject line? What did she put in the body?
In the context, this struck me funny.
I hope you have consecutive months of rainbows and ponies.
Also, would I reveal myself as having been raised by wolves if I came in here to trumpet the fact that STARS just received a 4-star review from RT Book Reviews magazine?
(Of course, ambitious soul that I am, I went from "Four stars, wheeee!!" to "Damn, why not 4 1/2 stars?")
Anyhow stars aside, there are a couple of great pull quotes out of this sucker!
All the pain, passion and consequences of first love, told from the heart of a bold, feisty heroine make this a hard-to-put-down read. Ferrer elegantly captures both the certainty and doubt of young love and combines it with the lessons of growing up and coping with change.
Aw Teppy, I'm glad he had such a good life.
BUT PEOPLE COULD STOP DROPPING DEAD NOW, OK!!!!!
Subject line is pretty harsh, Mom. Mine went through a phase where she kept forgetting to tell me people had died. Never a relative, but several elderly members of the church I'd grown up in. After the third or fourth one I'd start our phonecalls with "Anyone dead?" I get forgetting to mention the thing you called about but
seriously
that was pretty bad.

Barb, that rocks!
My picspam isn't Mal, it's the holy visitation we've experienced, a la Jesus on a tortilla. [link]
