I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

All my love to JZ, and all of you, too.

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

Universe, please back off of JZ now, that's quite enough.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So much love for JZ.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

In small but good news: I saw the first butterfly of spring today!

It is a good portent.

Matilda is currently doing her science homework.

In an effort to use the pandemic as a teachable moment her teacher has assigned her a whole slew of information about viruses and discussing whether they are a life form or not.

A little *too* timely if you ask me.

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

So much love and strength to all of you, David.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm glad that JZ can be with him, but so very sorry that this is happening at all. Love to you all.

She's the only person they would allow to be with him because she'd already recovered from COVID-19. Everybody else is a liability risk. A weird blessing. But it is a privilege to be with someone at their passing, and I am glad that he is with his firstborn.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You know when you're a parent and your baby instinctively holds on to your finger for the first time, it never occurs to you that when you are dying that is the same hand you will be holding.

Our wings are not tired.

She's the only person they would allow to be with him because she'd already recovered from COVID-19.

This really is a blessing for both of them. I hope all of you can feel the love flowing in your direction.
