I'm so sorry, Vonnie.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Thanks Dana. Words help.
Haven't gotten to the latest Strike book yet (I'm still in book 2, and am kinda dreading getting to book 3 with that ending). I am deliberating whether to rush through to book 4 or wait for the series. Probably the former -- who knows when they'll get to filming it? I wanna ask you if JKR FIXED THE THING but no. I shall remain strong!

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.
Vonnie, I am so sorry about this. Thank you for checking in.

Book 4 is very...meaty. Lots of stuff happens.

They should make it into a three hour series then! Or maybe four! I could have totally done with a longer adaptation of Career of Evil (they should have spent waaay more time on hurt/comfort if you ask me. Like 2 more hours of Strike worrying and angstying about Robin would have been good.)
Okay, instead of stewing in my own thoughts, I'm off to see Free Solo again in local multiplex, because there is nothing quite like watching a dude trying to kill himself while climbing 3000" rock face without a rope that says relaxing, healing time to the soul.

Our wings are not tired.
Good plan, Vonnie! Excellent choice of distraction.

So those cluster of flea bites I had yesterday...are Shingles. Thanks to my pharmacist for IDing it, it was caught early and I have a Rx for antivirals.

Oh my, Sue! I hope the drugs do the trick.

Oh, no, Sue.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Glad you got the right kind of treatment, Sue! Sorry it's shingles, though.
And wtf is this world, even. In addition to everything else, I feel bad that I'm mad that these shooters somehow are taken alive when so many black people are killed by police for doing nothing wrong.
