This happened to me to. It is a similar feeling every time I get an email for my (deceased) uncle because I set up his Ancestry.com account for him. The "Hello Walter" is a punch to the gut every time.
The count of three isn't a plan. It's Sesame Street.

I saw a brief clip of Oprah going door to door for Stacy Abrams - she knocked, a woman answered and fell back, totally surprised. I kept waiting for Oprah to say something like, "you get a vote and you get a vote" and so on.

Todd, I watched the joint event with Abrams and Oprah yesterday and that is exactly what she did!

Because books.
Bwah! Oh, Oprah. I do love her.

I memorialized ita's facebook account this week. Just FYI in case anyone did not see the discussion with Allyson about it.

Looked up a book over on Goodreads. Ginger marked it "To Read". Gutpunch.

Ouch.
I have today on my calendar as Ginger's yahrzeit. I don't feel enormously confident that that's accurate, but lighting a candle.

Thank you for the reminder. I'll light a candle too.

It was December 7th, but candles are good in advance I'd say.
eta: although that date could translate to today since I know little of how the calendar stuff works

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
A yahrzeit is the anniversary on the hebrew calendar, so yeah, it drifts a bit from year to year on the western calendar. More important, observing some kind of annual reminder is awesome, whichever date you pick to track it! Thanks for the reminder, -t
