Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Gypsy is super interesting if you read the memoir by Gypsy Rose Lee.

Or her best-selling mystery, The G-String Murders!

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.

Jesse, I'm sorry for your loss. Best peace and coping~ma for your uncle, and really, your whole family.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Holding you and your family in my heart, Jesse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just booked flights, and apparently there is no benefit at all to booking in advance unless you happen on a sale? By which I mean, buying a plane ticket for this Friday didn't seem notably more expensive than it ever is.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I've read the G-string Murders and liked it very.uch! Have not read her autobiography - I have been fascinated you GRL for a long time but have somehow shied away from reading that.

Timing the market is impossible to do reliably, they say.

Yeah, apparently.

I made it to the mid-season finale of B99, but I don't think I'll actually catch up before Will Shortz is on tonight's episode! Which issue makes me feel more like Amy than I ever have.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Quiet Sunday here. (well, as quiet as it could be with Mr. S around...)

Our wings are not tired.

Off shortly to a wake. Guy we used to work with got pancreatic cancer. Found out then was gone within a month. DH visited him in the hospital a couple days before he was gone. Funeral mass is tomorrow.

brillig

I went for a drive and went out to the lake. There are several places to pull over and look out over the lake and listen to the silence. Other cars pulled over at various distances on both sides of the road and turned off their engines. No one got out of their cars. No movement and no sound but the wind for twenty minutes. It was like a scene out of a Sergio Leone movie or French mystery. The occasional car drove past, the drivers staring at us.
