Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2015: Goodnight moon
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.
Go away, 2015.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Owie. But so right.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
There were a couple bright spots in 2015 for me - I paid off my mortgage in March, and I had a grand time in the PNW in May celebrating my BF's birthday/graduation. But most of this year has passed by in a dim, sad blur of depression and loss. There's five weeks of forced cheerfulness to get through, and then 2015 will vanish in a bang of fireworks over the Thames. 2016 has got to be better. Another year like this one, I can't deal.

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.
Wishing us all whatever strength is needed to get through the holiday season.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Thanks, Suzi. It was one of my most important goals, financially and emotionally, to have a home of my own.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
This thread title makes me tear up. It's perfect.
Thoughts about my year later when I'm not buried under deadlines.
