So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Guys, let us know if we want an ita thread. I think for now, we're OK in Natter, but we'll probably want something in the coming days.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh Allyson, oh Kristen, and oh, Paula, and everyone else who helped. I am so sorry. Thank you so much for doing this for her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thank you so much, Allyson. And Kristen and Paula and Burrell and Lori and Kat. I'm so sorry it had to be you, but so glad that it could be.

Ah fuck. Now I start crying. And I have to go into a meeting.

Allyson, I have nothing but stupid, useless words, but please take care of yourself.

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

Allyson, thank you. Both for everything you've done and will do for her family, and for giving us the story. I see no callous there, and I'm so grateful we all have you right now.

If I only had a brain...

Plei nailed it, Allyson. You do the best you can with what you've got to offer, and there is no good way to make the one call that nobody is ever ready to receive.

This. And if it's OK, if you need to, we've got you.

Plei, I think it would be a good thing to have; I suspect there are more Buffistas yet to trickle in.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Thank you, all of you. I don't know what I can do to help, but if there's anything, I'll do it.

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

Allyson, thank you so much for coming here to share that information with us. I am so sorry that you had to make that call.
