Andi, may I tag? It evokes a lovely dream of a better world.
Certainly, yes. Having a little reminder of that sweet dream could only make it better.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And not to pile on, but some of you old timers might remember Ouise? She's been going through some similar stuff.
Oh no!

In brief, ovarian cancer. She had surgery in December and has just started chemo and seems to be doing as well as can be expected.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
~ma to Ouise. I'm so over this bullshit. I wish there was some way to put a forcefield around all of us so that the bad things can't touch us.

There's a woman in my section whose baby is due next month. She's getting a little annoyed with the surrounding guys being hypervigilant on her behalf. She sneezes, and someone offers her Vitamin C, another one asks if she needs a snack, and I don't think the guy who just came in with a tray of drinks made a special run instead of getting something while he was getting lunch, but I'm not sure. It's kind of sweet.
