Thanks, y'all. It's a lot to take in. I almost didn't pick up the phone when it rang, because I was so sure it was yet another person wanting me to donate to some campaign or other, but I did just in case when I saw the Alabama area code. It was my nephew, D's son, and when he told me D had passed I was so SURE he was going to say it was covid.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh Susan, I'm so sorry.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I'm sorry, Susan.

Susan, I'm so sorry. That's so much to deal with.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm so sorry, Susan. That's awful.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, Susan, I'm so sorry.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Susan, I think it's good that you came here.
I'm so sorry to hear about your brother.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I am so sorry, Susan, for your loss and for D in the struggles he couldn't find his way past and for all his family. That is a terrible lot of large and sad things to absorb all at once.
