Way late in my context for an earlier reaction, but wanted to put it out there. When Robin Williams died, I was also dealing with the fact that one of our dear family friends, also a man in his 60s with two kids I babysat for years, had also committed suicide the week before. I was watching how it impacted the whole family and grieving. So ita, I actually agree that no one can say what the right answer is for an individual, and maybe sometimes suicide is the only answer. I just wasn't able to debate it then.
Say! look at you! You look just like me! We're very pretty.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Pix, I'm sorry, that's so hard.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm sorry, Pix.

So I am watching the Supernatural pilot. I may need guides and or a support group if this takes.

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

I binge-watched eight seasons last summer. The decorations in their motel rooms started to get really entertaining.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Hey, Hil, want to look up some genealogy stuff for me?

I may never eat a roast beef sandwich again. I got one from the cafe at work yesterday-all I ate besides the usual fruit, and let's just say I've been paying for it all day today. I am pretty sure I was extra buoyant swimming today. Uhg. I don't eat a lot of meat or bread, so unsure which is the culprit. But it was really awesome roast beef. Just not worth this.

I've traced back to a Johann Wichner, 1700-1772, who is the first non-French ancestor I've found. He emigrated from Germany at some point, but without an Ancestry.com membership, I can't find any details about him. I'm just curious to see what you can find.
Interestingly, I think "Wichner" becomes "Vicknair" once he and his wife move to Louisiana.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
OMG, a popcorn store in the neighborhood would be my undoing.
I walk by Garrett's daily and am astounded at people lining up before the store opens. I find the smell (which they intentionally pump out) sickening.
