Finally, it is all over. Dad breathed his last right around the time I was posting about him. Apparently all of a sudden. He's been my only parent for 42 years and now I'm an adult orphan. I am very sad, especially because his birthday is in two weeks. We are really going to miss him and his stories.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

I'm sorry, Katie Bee. That is a hard loss. Wish I could give you a proper hug.

I'm sorry, Katie Bee. Losing that last parent is especially hard. May he rest in peace.

The status is NOT quo.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
My condolences, KB.

Sorry KB, that's always going to be hard. Hope you can take care of yourself during this time.
I'm annoyed at people who want to make really specific restrictive bequests.
Like what? Of the "only for left handed chemistry majors from New Jersey" kind of thing, or "only to be used for paying for sharpies for the staff" or?
I made two important phone calls today! Granted, one just arranged to get a quote and we'll see if that actually happens. The other I had to leave a message and they haven't called back. But still! And I'm about to make another one.
