Oh Amy, I'm so sorry. Lots of thoughts and prayers headed out to your family.
Zoe: Next time we smuggle stock, let's make it something smaller. Wash: Yeah, we should start dealing in those black-market beagles.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Amy, I'm sorry.

In stupid work news, I hadn't heard back from someone who's notorious for not getting back, so I got a wee bit snippy in my email, and....she wrote back that she had been out of the office because her husband had emergency surgery. Oops.

Because books.
Thanks, everyone.
I think the weirdest thing for me was that I had just written "Mimi!" on my to-do list for the day when my mom called (as in I was planning to go sit with her for a while -- she hadn't been alert enough to speak or acknowledge anyone for days). And then as I was leaving the nursing home, "Welcome to the Black Parade" had just started.
The staff there are just incredible, though. Mimi was there seven years, and so many of the staff have been with her the whole time, and loved her like one of their own family.

Consuela, how absolutely atrocious. I don't even know what to say.

That's wonderful, Amy, to have had that for her.

Condolences, Amy.

So sorry, Amy. Hugs to you and your family.
