Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Well, I've dozed off for 2 45 minute intervals on the couch, so I guess I should meander up to bed. So dopey.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yeah, once that news came out, my friend Caro and I agreed that we would be hate-watching it when it comes out on DVD. Ideally with wine.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Allyson, I hope your friend doesn't have time to read many books.

Stage 4 breast cancer, so I'm hoping for a lot of book time. Freaked me right the fuck out. I'm going in for an exam, tomorrow.

Another friend from work is taking tomorrow off to help search the Angeles Crest for the body of his SIL, who they believe drove off the cliff ten days ago.

All around, this has been a shit week for people I love a whole bunch. I don't know how to help.

As a fellow freelancer, I salute you!

OMG YES. I'm sorry you're having the same week I am, Allyson. Many good thoughts for your friends.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, I phrased that REALLY badly--I hope she's getting her own books in no time.

I read it as "I hope she's out of the hospital soon"
