I'm so sorry, Karl. Sounds like a wonderful man, and what you wrote was so lovely.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2011: Maybe the even years are better
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. 2011? Room for improvement. Srsly.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh Karl, I'm so sorry. Wishing peace and comfort to you and your family.

I'm so sorry. He sounds like a wonderful human. People like that are always worth it, even when it's too short. Love to you and your family.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I got the Amazon package and opened it and thought, "huh, I don't remember ordering this" and then I saw the manifest!
It looks like there are quite a few things I'm going to want to make for my kitty - so it's like a present for her too.
Meanwhile: not to my secret santee - I have part of my gift to you and should be getting another bit of it this week but probably won't be mailing it until after Christmas Day. Unless I get it really early this week. REALLY early.
Signed: Slacker for a reason.
ETA: off to add my new book, Kitty Knits to my Ravelry library!
