I'm so sorry, Pix.
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh wow Pix, two aunts in such close succession is so hard. 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
Aw Kristin, I’m so sorry. My grandmother and her sister died 19 hours apart. We were literally leaving for one funeral when we got the news that the other had died. The extended family swiftly split into two groups and went in two different directions.
It was an emotional whirl of the worst possible kind and I’m so sorry you’re going through something similar. Grief is bad enough without chaos.

Thanks so much, Trudy, and everyone else. It's definitely been an emotional whirlwind. And this may sound dumb, but I hate that I have to go out to stock up on all the sympathy cards I need to cover both sides of the family. And my dad was super stoic and "we don't talk about it" when I tried to talk to him earlier (no surprise to anyone), which makes me worry more. At least when my mom mourns, we can talk about it and I know when she's getting depressed. Dad is just a completely closed book.
Aunt Pat sounds like one of those people who do the heavy lifting to make a family whole.
Yes, she was. Well said. Thank you.
ETA: Did I mention I got a jury summons today? Because that also happened.

I think I got called off more often than not when I got a Jury summons in SoCal. Here's hoping you're in the "released" group, Pix

It is a windy rainy mess here. It has been like this for several days, with no end in sight. They apparently have suspended flights at Fort Lauderdale's airport. Roads around the airport are flooded and people are stuck there. I've been looking for waterspouts, but haven't seen any yet. It is so hazy over the ocean I'm not sure I would see them. I haven't seen any today, but the last couple days the kite surfers were having fun. Crazy lot they are.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm so sorry, Pix.
