I hope the words from your people here are comforting, David. It's really tragic and sad. It will take a long time to process this. And to also be losing your sister - I hope you're able to make that trip.

My love to Hec and Matilda and Emmett. I deeply regret having been away for so long.

We never stopped thinking about you, Anne, and wondering how you were doing!

My heart. As I said on the Buffistas group on FB, I gasped. Why? Why would I gasp when we have been holding vigil for days? I think it was my body physically reacting to the loss of Jacqueline in our world. It takes my breath away.

I'm sitting here at work, thinking of how lucky I am to have had Jacqueline in my life even as tangentially as I did. The world is lesser without her. But, just as when my aunt passed from cancer a few months ago, I'm also so glad the lingering and suffering is over.

Of course, it isn't over for you and yours, David. And I can't believe you are also dealing with the imminent loss of your sister. We've all said it multiple times, but I want to say again how much we love you and are holding you and yours in our heart right now, ready and able to keep you afloat, lift you up. Our wings are not tired.

I am trying to ululate through the tears.

I tried to ululate and the sound that came out was the sound that I used to make when I imitated the brakes of the trolley buses in Vancouver. So then I laughed. And cried. I'm sure JZ wold appreciate the effort.

Damn it, David, that's too much.

I am not good at ulalating. I will need to practice in the shower.

I just told the Guinea Pigs.

They're upset. Or, possibly they just expected more lettuce.

But she truly was their Snoodler-In-Chief.

That is perfect! You absolutely deserve one of her signed first editions.

That sounds kind of perfect, Sue

ltc is trying on some of the clothes I wasn’t sure still fit her when I was reorganizing today. She’s mixing and matching Halloween and Christmas stuff and giving quite a show I keep thinking that Jacqueline would be very entertained by it all.

Poor piggies.

I drank Tropical Punch Kool-Aid and live texted it to Amelia. It was five years past its prime. It tasted the same as fresh would on account of it being Kool-Aid. Should have stuck with the Mai Tai plan.
