You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Wow, just found out the musician whose family founded my org is going to be inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame.

Liese, that's very cool!

Am currently at a friend's house, keeping an eye on her while her gf is at work. She had heart surgery about 10 days ago and can't be left alone until 2 weeks post-op. I'm always grateful for the chance to help out this friend, since she has done so much for M and me since we moved to town. So we're just hanging out with her cats and each doing some work. It's nice and companionable.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm pretty excited about it.

Aww, that's nice of you, Kate.

Kids and worry are why I can't have kids.

35th high school for me this year. Which means everyone in my graduating class is easily grandparent eligible. Not even counting all the people in my graduating class who were *already* parents. And said grandchildren would be cognizent human beings capable of holding a conversation full of ideas and opinions.

I had to count and next year will be my 30th. No ideas if they are doing anything. I might go just as an excuse to go out to the Bay Area for a long weekend.

Two more hours of work. Come on Suz, you can do it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I didn't so much graduate as escape from high school. No way in hell do I ever want to see more than a half-dozen of those people again--and that half-dozen I see or keep in touch with already.

Yeah, I realized a few weeks ago my 20th HS reunion will be next year, and that just seems utterly unpossible. I mean, sure, high school seems FOREVER ago, but...20 years?!!? I can't be old enough that I had real memories 20 years ago! (I don't think I'll go, more because I don't want to go back to Indiana and doubt the people I'm curious about will go, rather than a dislike of people I went to school with--I'd love to find out about some of them, but there were 500 people in my graduating class, and most of the ones I lost touch with but would love a 3 minute update from are not going to attend either, I'm sure--they weren't at the 10 year one)

I'm always grateful for the chance to help out this friend, since she has done so much for M and me since we moved to town. So we're just hanging out with her cats and each doing some work. It's nice and companionable.

Aww. That's awesome, and so nice.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, insurance company, why do I have to call you and tell you that you paid three claims for me? Why is this something I can see on your website, but somehow you can't?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

My 25th should have been 2 years ago. I don't think anything happened though. My entire class seems ambivalent about reunions.

A bee sting to the neck sucks mightily. I've felt Noah's malaise and I sympathize.
