i'm sorry about Oliver, Allyson. i'm sure he appreciated the kindness you showed him in that short period of time.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Oh, Allyson. How heartbreaking, I'm sorry. I have a little tear for poor Oliver and poor you, too.
I'm glad he felt warm and safe for his last few days.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, Allyson, that's ridiculously hard. But he was going to die alone and cold and afraid and you were able to give him love and warmth and courage, and that's not a small gift.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This. So sad, but so kind.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, Allyson! That is awful; I would be a wreck. It was SO the right thing to do, but hard, hard, HARD. Don't regret what you didn't do, because what you did was absolutely right for the information you had, and he was safe, warm, happy and had delicious turkey.
I am so sad for you, though.

In annoying news, I am getting dozens of spam text messages all in a row. Annoying!
Also, I should have grocery shopped today, but did not.

Oh Allyson, I am so sorry. You absolutely did the right thing for him, and he was able to spend his last few days warm and loved. I know that doesn't make it any easier for you, but you made things better for him.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. This bus has wifi. Cool! (Although the person in front of me has their seat tilted back so I can't put the screen in a decent postion.)
