Daniel, I'm so very sorry.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm sorry for your loss, Daniel.
I, myself, have gone from thinking every story has two sides to wondering if we'd get this over with faster if the dog had eaten the little bastard.
Likely.

Argh. Woke up 45 minutes ago at 4am and can’t fall back asleep. I imagine I’ll be able to around 20 minutes before my alarm or something. Boo.

Oh dang Pix I figured some east coaster would see my post, not you! I’m still up and there’s a homeless man outside across the street kicking a can and talking to himself who keeps startling me and keeping me up.
Monday evening (around 8pm) my dog went wild barking and we couldn’t figure out at what, and dismissed him. But turns out people were breaking into the apartments downstairs that my friend rents out on Airbnb!! Luckily they didn’t do a ton of damage other than breaking the locks and making a mess, but she went down in the morning to fix something and it was wide open with someone inside hanging out! So go dog. But now the person outside keeps making me suspicious.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry for the insomnia. Go puppo with the intruder alert. Good to have an alarm system.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Good job, Rory, but yikes, meara! Yeah, that would have me on alert.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've been slacking off since the Thanksgiving hurlyburly, but I needed to Deal With Shit.
So, I made a to-do list and I've banging off items pretty good this morning.
Paid the mortgage.
Researched check that I wasn't sure had been cashed.
Avoided sending a check to someone by sending money via Venmo.
Bought tickets for the Friday Bowie tribute show in January that my friends are flying down from Seattle to see. Need to still buy Saturday tickets (they are doing different albums on different nights: Ziggy Stardust on Friday, Aladdin Sane on Saturday).
Still need to send an email, pick up a prescription for Matilda and start the Turkey stew with the thighs I bought.
I did a lot of kitchen cleanup yesterday but I need to push it over the hump and get the whole thing spic and span.
Still not bad before I have my shower.
