Allyson, you have the prettiest hair, and gorgeous eyes, too. You are a blessing.
Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Allyson, I'll be in town, so I am definitely in for brunch.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I may be there--my assistant has moved to L.A. since we shut the Chicago office. She'll be staying with us while she tries to nail down a place to live in L.A.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Allyson, I'll pass on the PayPal info to Charlie Jane and Annalee. You have pretty hair.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Allyson always has super-pretty hair. It is a known fact.
I think it goes beyond fact into truth, or maybe legend.

It's weird that you have to pay for an obituary. The newspapers should be doing feature articles or some shit. It's fucking ita.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Allyson, your hair is flippin' glorious.
As mandated reporter, I wholeheartedly encourage people in hospitals (or their loved ones) to make a report for neglect regarding any nurse who will not bring one's properly prescribed medications. If reporting internally at the hospital does not yield immediate results, or you fear retalliation, report externally to local social services, adult protective services, or the like. I know it may take more spoons than you have, but it IS neglect of a vulnerable adult. If you would kick up a fuss to find your elderly, diabetic neighbor had a nurse who refused to give her insulin as ordered by her doctor, understand that you also deserve to advocate for yourself. Or, you know, slip me enough info that I become legally obligated to report it. (I can't really report if I don't know where it happened, but you betcha if I know the patient's real name and location, I have to make the call.)

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
Cashmere: Thanks to Connie, I can discuss this here. DH wants to take a picture of Owen in a roasting pan, naked, surrounded by potatoes and carrots. Is this wronger than a thing that's wrong, parental photography run amok or a way to make Anne Geddes swallow her own tongue?
billytea: Susan should do it! She can title the picture "Annabel Lecter".
