Aww, Jesse, I'm so sorry -- but so glad it was a good end.
Eggs. The living legend needs eggs. Or maybe another milk.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think it was good for my mother to see her so peaceful
It probably really was. For everyone involved the peace was good.
Okay, I have basically worked my ass off, so I'm going to see if it's made it down to the car. I didn't even *realise* I missed lunch today. Doing what? Replaying an hour meeting and taking notes for the second time because I was paranoid about the quality of the first and the ensuing meeting minutes.
But this third presentation will have to wait.

I'm glad it was a good day for your mom.

That's a really good thing. Also, what sara said.
Is it wrong that I find Duck Dynasty sort of delightful?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would hug you people. But am more pleased than ever that I took a public no-hugging stand at work!

The Duck Dynasty family seems to be real-life nice, anyway. I have my perverse love for Inkmaster, so I'm not about to judge.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I am so sorry, Jesse. So much love and light to your family.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
wow Jesse. That was quick. Warm thoughts to you and your family.
94 is a lot of years to live, especially with such loving family.
