When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I found a variation on the Tik Tok recipe - it includes slices of lemons, says to include capers and/or olives to increase the saltiness ... and that the pasta is optional. I may try it ... sometime ... and halve the recipe, since it's just me.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Oh that sounds good. We've been speculating about all the potential variations. It would definitely halve easily.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

It's going to be interesting feeding Mr. S during Passover this year. He's gotten rather picky, and most of the stuff he will eat has bread or pasta in it. (He'd happily eat pizza, grilled cheese and mac-n-cheese every day if we let him)

move out and draw fire

Hey all. I have been grieving Amy and I feel bad about it, because I know that many of you were closer to her and I should have been here supporting you, but I just didn't have the spoons. It was a weighted-blanket-and-couch weekend.

So hugs to everyone now, in properly socially distanced and non-space invasive form.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

There's no place for "should" in grieving. We all knew and loved her, and it's hitting us in different ways. That's just the way of it. I've spent the last few days sort of numb and foggy, just wanting to sleep all the time. (I also got my second shot on Sunday, which was a bit of yay in the midst of gloom, but also made me sleepy.) Listening to her playlist helped. I was able to dance a bit and that helped me access some happy memories.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Listening to the playlist right now, AIFG.

Absolutely do not "should" on yourself, Volans.

I know, but you know...also the playlist does help.

Yeah, me too bud.

Volans I have had some of the same feelings, but I've also been grieving and listening to the playlists. I think part of the sting for me is that while it was limited I loved the times I had with Amy and I just assumed that over the years there would be more of those times, and so I find that I'm occupied with is thinking about the lost future opportunities. Such a wonderful person.

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

Matt, it’s a Prius, so I dunno. It wasn’t the big big battery obviously, that’s a gagillion dollars, but I’m guessing the regular battery is also more? I could look at the invoice.
