I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry about the timing, smonster. Not that the timing could ever be right. I am confident that you will celebrate Kara's life and memory in many ways, many times, if not at the official funeral. It all sucks.

This is the friend who, fifteen years ago, when my father died, took time off from her law firm in Norfolk, drove down to Chapel Hill, picked me up, and drove me to Miami so that I could get his affairs in order, plan his memorial service, and close up his apartment.

That is just beautiful.

Punishingly Intricate

I'm so sorry for your loss, smonster, DJ, and Nora and everyone who loves Kara.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I love the idea of giving him to the woods so that the woods can embrace him. Just beautiful.

He spent a good part of his life saving the woodland. I'm sure it will welcome him as the hero he was.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I am still not coping. I'm compartmentalizing so that I either have to put it out of my head while I attend a shitload of work events (it's a cocktail conference here, and I can't even drink my troubles away, because very bad things happen if I drink while sad or mad.) Or I cry pretty much nonstop at home.

I don't understand what my brain is doing. I know my heart is breaking.

I'm so sorry, everyone who knew and loved Kara.

Wow! Knightly garb was a good look for him!

Also, whoever does the spell check for iPads is a Doctor Who fan. It revised my typo of "ood" to "Ood".

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Wow. Viking indeed. Thanks for sharing that photo, Connie.

Nora, after Tales will you have some time to let yourself fall apart a little? I do feel better today, having been able to sleep yesterday and go to the vigil.

I have decided not to try and come back for the funeral. I hate it, but her family knows I am there for the long haul. And I need to spend time with my family. So, decision made. Thanks for offers of driving, amyth and Zenkitty.

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

That's a wonderful photo, Connie.

I know it was a hard choice, smonster, but it sounds like the right one. Take care of yourself.

And you too, Nora. It's okay to not cope for a while, so be forgiving.
