Bev's writing is a thing of beauty.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
My mother had her MRI this morning (which went fine with Valium), and the results show nothing else, no other spread, so I think it's the best possible news. (Other than "Whoops, just kidding about that cancer.")

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Good news, Dana.
Yup, I always love what Bev has to say and how she says it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Phew, Dana.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Good news is very good, Dana! What a relief for your mom and all your family.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Glad to hear it, Dana.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Dana,
I am relieved at the main part of your mother's news, but also that the valium helped. I had an MRI, I am not claustrophobic, and I thought I was going to die in that fucking tube. Good to know that should I need one in the future, I may succesfully get through it with a valium.

She was really funny about the valium. And also still slightly high when she called me, so very chatty.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh, Dana, that's a relief. Yay for the good news.
A Girl Scout volunteer here apparently made off with a troop's cookie money, and the local news had an adorable second-grade troop member on who recited the Brownie pledge and earnestly explained why taking the money was against the Girl Scout law. She said, "It says to be friendly and helpful in the law. That's one of the things people expect Girl Scouts to do."
This is like the third Girl Scout embezzlement case I've heard about in the past month! What is up with people taking cookie money away from Girl Scouts??
