Shir, so sorry, I'm thinking about everyone in the region today--is that why it's so crowded in here, sometimes?(Well, okay, not *everyone*--a few people in charge can fuck right off, forever, but, like, mostly.) Glad the Middle East Buffistas are well. This is why I don't believe that new study that swears most people don't have interior monologues...unless I got extras by mistake. Which might explain a lot, actually. Smonster, hope you are feeling better, but Karl is an excellent person to bounce a crazy thought off of. Even when you have another person to bounce other things, um...maybe I won't go into all that, right now.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Stay safe, Shir.
Stay safe, shir. Thanks for the info about Nilly.
Yes, this.
Thank you so much for checking in, Shir
Shir, I too came looking for you when I heard a news break. Thank you for checking in!
Yes, such a relief to hear that you (and Nilly) are safe! Thanks for checking in Shir.
I hope the day is becoming a bit less fraught for you as it goes on, smonster.
I was thrilled to wake up and find my indoors were 8° cooler than what I have the air conditioning set to. (My cats, not so thrilled.) But it made for a great picnic lunch by the lake with my mom.
smonster, I'm glad you got some sleep. I hope that the Buffista solidarity helps a bit, even after the fact. There are more than a few folks here who care a lot about your happiness and well-being.
Shir, thank you again for bring us word of Nilly and her family. I joked a few months ago about wrapping Buffistas in bubble-wrap, but this is a whole different level. I very much hope you can feel our love and concern for you.
Happy birthday, Jen. And what Karl said.
I very much hope you can feel our love and concern for you.
I do. Thank you all. I love you too.
I'm also heading to bed, hoping for a quiet night - as much as possible.
