I have decided that I'm going to make a key lime margarita pie to take to Thanksgiving with all my teetotaller relatives this year. It doesn't actually contain any alcohol, but there should be some funny moments if I'm asked what it is.
Travers: Perhaps you'll favor us with a demonstration while we're here. Buffy: You mean, like, right now? 'Cause, already had my recommended daily dose of fights tonight.

Ugh, what a week. We lost a very dear family friend this week. He's been in bad health for a while, but always sudden, you know?
But also, my boss's son was in a terrible accident over the weekend. He was helping someone push a disabled car and they were hit by another driver. He's in ICU. And now I just found out that my coworker's father had a heart attack last night.
This can stop now.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Many, many sympathies to all who need them.

My deepest sympathies David & Brenda.

Aw, heck, Hec. I hope when I die, there is someone to speak of me so fondly. Also, 48 is too young.

I'm very sorry for your loss David. Also, fuck cancer.
Also hoping the world backs off Brenda (and any other Buffista who feels put upon).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh man, brenda! That is more than enough.

November seems to attract tragedies. Both of my inlaws died in November, then all this happening here. I wonder if it's a combination of the beginning of serious winter and the onset of holidays providing too many sources of stress on people playing a balancing act with their lives. I know the dark and the snow make me take a very deep mental breath before girding the existential loins.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm developing a very strong distrust of November.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
