{{{Suzi}}} I think sometimes doing well (in this case, doing the celebration on your own and very successfully) allows you to feel the loss more and kindness has a way of unleashing sorrow. Bittersweet.
Say! look at you! You look just like me! We're very pretty.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Teppy and -t. Yep.
I'm blasting metal while working and I haven't cried since that last post - progress?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Definitely progress. I just want to say that in all the years you have been posting, that your journey to independence and the way you raise your family with such thoughtful care and take pride in your work and took care of your mom all inspires a lot of admiration in me. You are an amazing woman.

And Scrappy sets off the water works again.
But "Scrappy is wise" is a thing for a reason, so I'll just say thank you for your words. I take them to heart and very much appreciate your appraisal. Even when I'm not sure sure about it myself. Arg. Scratch that last part. Thank you.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Use your powers for good, Suzi.
I'm sorry you got blindsided by the grief. It does get better. You just have to kinda brace yourself for the tidal wave.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Neil Gaiman just responded to my tweet. Of course it was a picture of ltc kissing one of his books. So, how could he resist?

Very cool, sj. That would be very irresistible.
I took Kelly out for afternoon tea for her birthday which is tomorrow. I boggle that she will be 27. The tea was very fancy and all the treats were delicious. The only bummer was the pistachio macaroon. I adore macaroons, but these were overly chewy.

Awesome, sj! My son is going to be super jelly.
