Oh Cass, I wish you didn't feel guilty, but I know that feelings are real even if they aren't always the truth. I hope that your guilt can transform into something else eventually. You were very good to Kittenish.

Sending strength and ~ma to you and your family.

What audio tape was that, Sox? It's not something that comes up, like ever, from non-Jamaicans around me.

Insent, ita ! to your profile addy.

I will also come down and write it in eyeliner on your mirrors, if I need to.

I'm trying to know this. It's just that - right now - it's not enough.

It's just that - right now - it's not enough.

I know. Believe me, I know.

ION, there is not enough caffeine in the WORLD today. I've resorted to blasting The Misfits through the headphones, but I think the only effect it's having is me muttering along with the lyrics, which is probably unsettling for people sitting near me.

What they all said, Cass.

Cass, I'm sorry for your loss. Thinking about kittenish is making me snuggle mine all the more. I wish there were a way to bottle Harvey's best purrs to send to you as comfort and strength. You have so much to deal with, with your dad being ill as well.

Fuck cancer.

Omnis, it's good to hear that your sister is at least making a step in the right direction, and I'm glad to hear your dad is having an easier time of treatment this go-round.

Crappity, Ginger. Stupid people are stupid.

Teppy, I'm glad your brother's liver is going to get better. May he come through this happy and healthy. Or at least as happy as any thinking person can be in this sad world.

Now that the discussion is well and truly done - Daniel and I have seen the Avengers twice in 2D and been quite pleased. I'm not sure I want to see butts in 3D, no matter how shapely.

Dear old college Facebook friend,

I'm sure that posting your real estate listing for your current huge 5 bedroom house (listed at almost $750K) and mentioning that you're moving to a new place "on the other side of the golf course" was supposed to be very impressive. Just for the record, I am not impressed. In fact, I am totally grossed out by both your need to let all of us know just how much your home is worth (and an idea of what your new home is worth) and your greedy, tacky, keeping-up-with-the-Jones' ways. Ew. Also? Aside from your childrens' rooms, your home decor is frighteningly bland and lacking in character. Do people even live there?

Ah, I feel much better letting that out somewhere. And I just had to ETA that I looked again and her house is listed at $765K, has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and is 2730 sq ft. However could her family of 4 existed in such conditions! Sorry, this really just got under my skin.

I need you all to help me decorate. I am not Glamcookie's FB friend, but the above definitely describes my house.
