Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Now I'm going to think of the nit comb as a primate grooming ritual.
Pretty much is.
One interesting exception is the gelada. They're close relatives of baboons, and live in the Ethiopian highlands. They're grazers, the only grazers in the primate family (except possibly my brother at age four). Other grazers tend to look like cows or deer (or geese) and crop grass with their teeth (or bills). But geladas, being monkeys, collect it by scooching around on their butts and grabbing the grass with their hands.
That means, however, that their hands are preoccupied, and so they don't do as much grooming. Instead, they maintain social bonds by chattering to each other.
Their style of locomotion also means that their butts are otherwise occupied. While baboons get that swollen pink butt thing happening, geladas display their sexual readiness with a bare patch of skin on their chests.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I am picturing the image of Steve Carell from 40-Year-Old Virgin that I recklessly Google imaged.
Why do I never remember safe search? So much junk I wasn't intending to see.

I am pretty sure our darling Nilly will be unavailable for several days, but I am also so sorry to hear of this.
I wish all strength and peace to you and your family.
(And thank you, Shir, for letting us know.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Nilly. I'm so sorry.
