Hello Kitty Captain America made me smile. As do the rest of you wonderful people. Shock is a beautiful, soothing thing.
The little bow is perfect.
That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

We are all here for you, Connie.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So shocking, Connie. Whatever you need, we'll try to do.
I love all of those links!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My student brought her puppy to work. I told her she could do it today only because very, very few people are here. We are a fairly dog-friendly building, but 2 of the deans do not like it, so it is really only professors or people who report to a different dean who do it. My student (of course) doesn't really see the distinction, but after about an hour she said, "I am never bringing the dog again because it is so distracting!". Live and learn
My dog is the perfect office dog in that people generally don't realize she's there. Until she dozing and making huge grumble happy sighs. But it's also a vet and she gets anxiety thinking people will poke and prod her. Given we aren't technically pet-friendly, that usually happens. But she needs to get comfortable with the medical too. Mostly she naps in the corner and people are surprised to see her. It's mostly me socializing her and getting her more comfy with actual vet staff. That really explains at least two vax that she has. Lyme isn't a big risk in her life but she had a whole day at work!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, Connie. I'm so sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Connie, I'm so sorry. That was quite a lot of living he packed in there. It's good you got to be part of so much of it.
I'm currently answering a Jamaica AMA on IO9 natter and playing (and beating) 7 random people on Scrabble. I should be reading art books. I will be. In a sec.

I am celebrating freedom by going to a matinee of How To Train Your Dragon 2. Until 2 minutes ago, I was the only one here.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Took a stroll downtown - the Fourth of July do on the plaza is pretty meh so far. I was hoping for tempting food vendors, but nothing really looked good. I'll give it another try in the evening, maybe, the view of the fireworks from over there is a little better than from my porch.

We went to the Northside parade with Steph and Tim and friends and family! Northside is truly the Athens, GA of Cincinnati. There was a 50 year old man across the street from us in overalls dancing to the songs on the floats that went by and he was truly inspiring in his boogie.

My thoughts, are with you, Connie.
Participated in the parade and now we are taking a break before heading over to the festivities in the park.
