See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I am so very sorry, Katie Bee. My condolences.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In other news about my ridiculous job, I just got worried for a second and had to google to make sure that crew and rowing are the same thing.

Ann, that's a ferret.

My condolences, Katie.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

KB, I'm sorry for your loss.

I mean, not in all contexts but if you have to ask then probably yes.

My condolences, KatieBee.

We saved my dad's ashes for 16 years (reverently stuffing them in a box on a shelf in the back of a closet) until my mom died and they are scattered together in the memorial garden at my mom's church.

This is what we're doing, except I'm to divide the ashes between my grandparents' burial plots (my maternal grandparents are on a beautiful sloping hillside surrounded by centuries-old oak trees) and someplace scenic up in the Ozarks.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

My condolences, KatieBee.

My mother was a vehement believer in cremation so when my father died, she had him cremated. After quite a while, with the ashes in a cardboard box, she had the ashes interred in a veterans cemetary. She died and my sister had her ashes interred with his.

My sister has the ashes of her now deceased cats and is saving them to be interred with her when she dies. Not sure how to feel about that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, my god, I am in a post-vacation snit, not helped by the complete frustration that contract job is already giving me. Oh, the demo server you wanted me to work on wasn't TURNED ON? Glad I spent that half hour troubleshooting before I called you.

Oh, and the username and password you gave me just literally didn't exist? Great! Totally useful.

Ugh, Dana. Starting up is always hard.

I mean, not in all contexts but if you have to ask then probably yes.

Yeah, fair. The answer for me was yes.

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

Timelies all!

I'm sorry, KB.

Went to the Irish Museum of Rock Music and rode on a Hop-On Hop-Off bus for a bit. Mr. S has been behaving badly for much of the day. We fly back tomorrow.
