Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Aw, Burrell, I'm sorry you're having to deal with this too.

Always Anti-fascist!

Well, maybe someday, it will feel different. You've just been through a lot.

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

Thanks everyone. I'm just having that thing where, because my feelings towards her in life were complex, so are my feelings in her loss.

Our wings are not tired.

Burrell, I have written and erased and written an erased a bunch, not knowing how much to say or how much to share. But I just want you to know that your sister's decisions on where to expend her energy and affection have nothing to do with you. It absolutely sucks being left to pick up the mess, and I am so sorry.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

There's a bit in Gaudy Night about how sickness or death doesn't automatically make a person more lovable.

Thrive to spite them

I'm so sorry Burrell.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, Burrell. That is super hard.

I have no thoughts about psychopaths vs. sociopaths.

Burrell, I am so sorry you are going through this.

We just looked at a property with great square footage and great location. But it needs a LOT of love. [link]

Relatedly, smonster, insent!

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'm just having that thing where, because my feelings towards her in life were complex, so are my feelings in her loss.

I think feelings tend to be more complex after a loss, not less. And I am sorry.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

{{{Burrell}} I'm sorry that it is all so hard.

Nora, are you thinking of buying something in NO?

I thought there was a difference between psychopaths and sociopaths only because Sherlock corrected a detective about which he was in the BBC show. But otherwise, I don't know much about it.

I'm ridiculously tired today for no good reason and keep dropping things. Including a cobalt glass plate that shattered into more pieces than I thought possible. I reserved a book for a book signing tomorrow, but now I'm not sure if I want to go or if I even have enough spoons to stand in line that long.
