We are here, Karl. Happy to talk at you, and happy to listen if you want to talk. I'm sorry you're having a rough time. But I'm glad you know it's OK to say you're not OK.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

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

Our wings are not tired.
Karl, it is my sincere hope that this home brings you comfort as it has for me so often. Life is often hard and cold while Buffista love is soft and warm.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Would that every man had such full kindness in his heart as you, Karl.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
{{{Karl}}}
Was out late with my parents last night (very fun time at the Lindsay Museum but Mom and I somehow missed all the food so we went for a late dinner after my usual bedtime) and accordingly slept in this morning. After feeding the cats I decided to read a little before really getting the day started and fell back asleep until 2pm. Guess I was tired. Plan not to do that tomorrow...

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

You are what I call an Alan Alda man - kind, sensitive and open to your feeling. I have also gotten a lot of comfort here as as the opposite- a judgemental woman, so I hope we help.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Thank you, friends. Catching up on Natter, a long, hot shower, dinner, and a nap did manage to bring me back to something approaching normalcy.
Sometimes it's all just a bit much, you know? I count myself very lucky to have all of you and your kind words to lean on.
Hugs to those who need/want them.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
You've been through some real shit, Karl. I am glad a bit of a break and some food/showering helped. Gentle hugs here for when you need them.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Oh Sophia. A lot of empathy to you. It is difficult. Echos to what Jesse wrote.
Yay Sue's dad! Continued ~ma for recovry.
A whole lot of love, Karl.
I'm back at work after a difficult weekend, woke up today with a migraine, and I have difficult reading materials to catalog (semi-gov records from a then-important minister on 1948 war. While I love history, it sometimes breaks your heart). But at least it's quiet and there's AC and coffee. And co-worker realized about two weeks ago that I'm not a talkie-socializing person.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hang in there, Karl.
And co-worker realized about two weeks ago that I'm not a talkie-socializing person.
That seems promising!
