Yay going home, Arthur and fam!
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

David, because I'm me, I immediately researched how to anchor a lifeline solidly.
The lifeline has a shock absorber to cushion impacts to the extremities in case of a fall.
This seems like the very best metaphor for our community I've ever imagined.
And, I'll add a lyric from one of my favorite bands. "We don't have to worry, 'cause when we fall, we know how to land."

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Yay, Arthur!
Huh. Smonster, I think your post hit a possible quick edit + autolink bug we might or might not of known about. (I did click edit, but all I did was break your link to a new line, as Natter's body text had been all italics on mobile Chrome.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So here I am. I'm not scary; I'm just lurking.
I welcome your unscary hugs at all times, Karl.
I dreamed something this morning about having something to tell DX and being sad that I couldn't.
Ooofdah! Mortality dreams galore.
I have an appointment at Green Street Mortuary in North Beach at 1pm.
They called this morning.
Me: This is David Smay...
JoJo: This is Green Street Mortuary. My name is JoJo. Your wife came into our care last night. Do you want to make an appointment to come in?"
Me: Yes, can I come in around 1pm?
JoJo: 1pm! Good. Bring your wife's driver's license and SSN so I can make the death certificate. Look for JoJo!
So "Looking for JoJo" has now replaced "Waiting for Godot" in my existential pantheon.

Plei, I threw a close link into my post, which seems to have fixed it downstream.
ita taught me that lesson years ago with a very stern talking to!

I was still getting all the italics, all the time on mobile! It was most def. weird, but throwing smonster's link onto a new line fixed it. It's like it hurled when it had to both make italics AND automatically generate a link + [link].

Karl is such a master at hugging that he finally almost made me get why those strangers wanted to touch me all the time when I was younger. (Well, that, and wanting to see if the Crippled Magic could rub off, I suppose.) Much like I hadn't tasted a great tomato till I was about fifteen, getting hugged at an f2f was like "Oh, that's what people like when they do that."
