Coffee: It is just a feeling of helplessness. It must have killed his wife to leave him there.
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

I'm in Jerusalem, but was just yesterday in Tel Aviv. I'm usually there every other week (got a lot of friends there, and it's just an hour's ride).
Totally understand that feeling of helplessness (got a friend who is in and out the hospital at the moment, and feeling crappy, with nothing much that can be done). But I figure that if there's anything I can do, I might as well do it, bureaucratic hoops or whatnot. It's bad enough to be in a hospital, it's worse to be there alone.

Thank you, Shir. I will ask the family for the details and see if there is anything that can be helpful. It helps just hearing your offer. I think one of his grown sons stayed with him.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Shir! I got nothing but hello, but it's great to see you

Hi Shir! What a situation for your friends, Laura, that must be so hard for everyone.
Brother~ma, erika.
My medication manager and I have decided to try a low dose of Prozac for a while (she thinks I'm developing a tolerance for Adderall, which I don't know that I agree with (I feel like I just want the extended release to release for longer more than I want a higher dose) but she's said all along I probably have some depression going on so I'm willing to try treating that), so that's starting today. I'm kind of excited to have a prescription that can be refilled through the mail.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hi, Shir! Good to see your pixels.

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.
Hello Shir, it's always lovely to see you.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
You guys!!! I met Aurelia last night! Was awesome.
It was awesome! Glad I could keep your run of a Buffista at every event going.
Shir, I don't know of anyone looking to go to Tel-Aviv for the summer but there should be lots of sublets available in Chicago now with the end of the semester. Pick a neighborhood around any of the local universities and students will have vacated for the summer.

Hi Shir! Welcome back! :)
I just went and did a free boot camp in the park with my gym, that a friend got me to go to. Suppose I'm glad I did it (and totally would've bailed if the friend weren't going to be there) but at the moment I'm standing by the stairs in my townhouse, not walking up them to take a shower because my quads are too tired!
