And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Small happy thing in my world. I got a low interest home equity line of credit and I am paying off all my debt and my property taxes for this year and will be doing some small projects on the house.

The interest rate is at minimum 50% lower than any of my cards. And it can never go up more than 1% a year.

Our wings are not tired.

Well done, msbelle.

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

Hello, Buffistas. To quote Crowley, I'm back.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nicely done, msbelle!

Hi Laura! That was an adventure. Turns out I'm a dummy, but I needed a new password anyway.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Hello, Buffistas. To quote Crowley, I'm back.

I can see that. (I just had to provide the response.)

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Hey Zen!

Dylan's favorite uncle died in his sleep last night. He'd been hospitalized all last week due an autoimmune issue with his lungs that had led to a slow decline over the past several years and had just gone into hospice care. The timing was such that people were able to say goodbye, either by FaceTime/email or in person, which I know felt like a blessing to Dylan since both his parents' deaths were sudden and unexpected.

So we've been thinking and talking about death a lot of late, which somehow on Saturday evening led to us singing "Because I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me" to as many tunes as we could think of, all while laughing hysterically.

After which Dylan sat down and wrote a perfectly beautiful farewell email, very loving and full of wry humor, telling Uncle Warren how much he'd meant to him and been his example for the kind of husband, father, and human being he wanted to be, so I guess we needed that.
