I am really bummed that someone who was a good friend of mine in my Houston chorus, who was funny and seemed like a good person to me, has turned out to be a full-scale Trump supporter. She just reposted something from Dinesh D'Souza's FB page about the tax bill, and I had to unfollow her. I just...I don't understand.
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry Dana. That sucks.
I went wading through old threads for a while to see if I could confirm a conversation I was remembering as being with Ouise actually was. Didn't find it, but just reading random conversations from 10 years ago has me verklempt. Love you all, whether you are still here a lot or a little or not at all.

Our wings are not tired.
Yes, digging into the old threads is very painful, and joyful. Joyful for the reminder of how wonderful this place is, painful, well, you know why.

Compassionately intolerant

The status is NOT quo.
Oh I'm so sorry to hear about Ouise. I didn't know her well, but my heart goes out to all who loved her.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am so sad about Ouise. Fuck Cancer. Fuck it hard and not in a good way.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm sad to hear about Ouise passing. Too many of us gone. My condolences to those who knew her and loved her.
Suzi, I'm glad K can be with you during your recovery.
I missed saying a lot of stuff the last couple days that I would've said if I'd read it as it happened. I need to stay caught up here; I always feel like I've lost a moment with my friends when a good convo goes by without me commenting.

I've been contemplating the circle of life thing. As we watch our Buffista Babies grow up, there's the other turn of the wheel as well. The inevitability of a group that has hung together so long.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
So sad to hear about Ouise. Love to the Haligonistas.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm so sorry to hear about Ouise. Sympathies and comfort to those who loved her.
Suzi, that's such good news about Kelly. Your kids are good people.
Matt, I'm so pleased at how well Gizmo's recovering. I hope he finds a fabulous furever home where he can boss everybody around and be king of his personal savannah.
Dana, I'm so sorry. There's a lot of that going around and it's so very hard to reconcile.
Andi, thank you for the Millay. It said beautifully what I've been feeling.
