Our wings are not tired.

Oh Brenda, how horrible and sad. Peace and comfort to his loved ones.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I'm still getting jerked around on hiring (why can't I just make these decisions? Argh.), but at least I am organizing a street-wide yard sale. So that's fun.

Shrift, sorry I didn't see that you were stuck here until very late. I could've brought you a tee shirt or something.

I didn't get to the airport Hilton until 11:30pm and I was through Security by 6:30 am because I thought my 8am flight would go. Otherwise I would've texted.

Brenda, that's terrible. I'm so sorry for your sister's loss.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Thanks y'all. It's all pretty surreal. My sister saw him just yesterday morning so she's having a lot of trouble processing. (And actually saw the couple involved on Friday night. She sort of knows the girl from around and met the boyfriend that night, who struck her as kind of off, but not obviously to this extent.)

It looks like they've made an arrest already - it sounds like there's no real dispute about what happened, in part because the girl called the bar a bit later that night when the cops and ambulances were outside asking "Is it Shawn? Is he dead?"

Just so ghastly.

I'm sorry Brenda

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I made the mistake of listening to the radio this morning, and now I'm going to be earwormed forever.

I'm sorry, brenda.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

God, brenda, that's horrible.
