There are things I need to do, like send thank you notes to the folks who contributed to the fund, a project I want to do with the Pink Gingham Dress, and finish shipping things.

No spoons. It's impossible to determine what ita would have wanted. I think about her every day, and get angry that the world is still spinning without her. I can't stand it.

I've been wearing her garnet ring, imagining it has some sort of superhero power to make me stronger. It's silly, magical thinking, but it helps.

Allyson, you have the shiniest hair.

No one expects thank you notes, truly. Take that off your list.

That's what magical thinking is for, Allyson.

There's no time limit on getting any of that done.

No one expects thank you notes, truly. Take that off your list.

Pix is right. No one expects thank you notes, no one who you would send a thank you note to would want to add to your stress by having you write thank you notes.

And magical thinking helps.

This I love.

Allyson, your hair is very shiny, and I completely agree with Pix and Jilli.

Now I know why it's sunny here today: light glinting off Allyson's amazing hair.

Thank you notes are for gifts.

That was more of a barn-raising. Whole different vibe.

The garnet ring will tell you this is true.

Yeah, no notes.

Shiny hair, though. When I finally make it to LA again, I am also totally going to play with makeup with you.
