Wow, Amy, I'm so sorry.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Happy Birthday Scrappy!

Oh, Amy, I'm so sorry. That's so awful.

Because books.
Thanks so much, everybody. It really helps to have a safe place to just come and dump it all out.
My mom's staying at the nursing home -- I don't think Mimi is lucid in any way, and neither does my mom, but she's an only child, and one of Mimi's great fears has always been being alone. I offered to go sit with her, but I can't even get in anymore -- the front doors are locked to entrance now.
Sleep now, and then we see what tomorrow brings.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Amy. What a hard time.
And then I think about everyone my grandmother knew aside from my mom and dad and us kids is already dead.
My grandmother talks about that, and it's got to suck. Note to self: Die in middle of peer group?

So, the Twitter tells me, apparently there was some big To Do in downtown Boston tonight, around a Mac Miller (some new rapper) concert and possible shots fired. I was within blocks and missed the whole thing. Huh.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am so sorry Amy. Wishing you strength.
