Buff-diving link? I lost it when my old laptop died.

I made us order Appleton rum cake at dessert tonight. It was awful, I'll need to make my own. But seeing it on the menu and ordering felt like something.

I am home but wanted to read through the thread before I posted. Thank you everyone for your kind words. It has been a rough day. It was an even rougher night. Thank God for Paula and Allyson and Kristen and Kat and Lori. Seriously. I just was so wishing this day wouldn't come.

have been hitting my backlog of Good Stuff Happened Today pretty hard. Which also sometimes makes me cry a lot, but, you know.

I had to go out and be normal for a meeting late this afternoon. It was weird. I just wanted to be home with my laptop and all of you.

Much love to you Burrell.
