I've cried a thousand times more than I did when my mother died two years ago, because: mom, a few weeks shy of 96 years old. This is so untimely.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Checking in here now...
I'm stunned. I never met ita in person, but she was so much a part of this board that it's going to be weird here without her.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I, too, have taken some small comfort in the thought that she was reading on-line and just slipped away from meatspace (a term she taught me).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
So I think it's not entirely my looking-for-any-sort-of-comfort in choosing to see this specific not-alone meaning in this line.
I take great comfort in that.
I had people ask me if they should come over, so I wouldn't be alone. I told them that I was going online. It's where all of our mutual friends are, so I wouldn't be mourning alone. We'd be together.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Angus?
I contacted him.
Hey John! Missed you.

Every time I want to righteously kick someone's butt, I'm sure she'll be there, like Tom Joad, but sexy.(And I bet she'd want me to rewrite that sentence.)

I may have to seize the cat.
I'll join the chorus of people comforted by her being online.

The crying has hit me off and all most of the afternoon. What terrible and unexpected news.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I emailed Fiona at the address I had for her. Not sure if it is still current.
