Oh I’m so upset. Norah’s children are 22 and, I think, 20. Which is adult but not very old to lose their mother.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Thank you, Polgara. I’m very sad to hear, but thank you

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Thanks for letting us know the sad news, Polgara.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.
Oh, I'm so sad about Norah. Fuck this fucking year.

Absolutely too young to lose their mother. What a horrible loss. So glad we got to know her, even if too short a time. Man. People dying is stupid. I do not like it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
What horrible news. It sucks.

I'm very sorry to hear about Norah. Polgara, thanks for letting us know.
