Now tagless for your comfort.

Tomorrow we go to the funeral home to arrange things. Mom's final wishes, which she randomly told Dad a few months ago? No ceremony or funeral; she wants to be cremated, and have us sneak her ashes into the flowerbeds around the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. No, she wasn't kidding.

You could definitely manage it like the trick in Shawshank Redemption where the guy smuggles out the dirt from his escape tunnel into the yard.

That was the same trick Pete was referring to with "The Great Escape." Same idea.

Though I wonder if the Mouse has special secret agents placed around the Haunted Mansion just to thwart perky goths.

Jesse, I just had one funded last week. I wonder if I could submit another in time before your deadline (January 30, right?). I think I could if I started now.... can you give me a few days?

t off to go write a grant

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The 31st, and sure!

Does anyone else want to be part of the "distraction" at Disneyland? A mini F2F, maybe?

And Teppy, I'm sorry about Chloe, I know that she was a huge part of your and Tim's lives.

Hec, have you ever considered becoming a librarian/archivist?

Hey, David, a good friend of mine has been campaigning for me to do this. We could be archivist buddies!

Jilli, I think that's absolutely perfect.

Tep, I'm so sorry. You and The Boy took wonderful care of Chloe. It's so hard to let go.

So my cousin just had a baby, and the baby's older sister (probably 3 or 4) insisted her name was Sparkles Alice. When told it was Ivy Grace, she threw a tantrum and is refusing to call her new sister anything but Sparkles, and has gotten her older brother to do the same. Grandpa is playing along. Methinks new baby has a nickname.
