I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Ugh. The universe giveth and the universe taketh away. Stephen just got laid off. Which isn't a surprise, since the paper declared bankruptcy and probably won't exist in a few more months, but still.

I am very sorry, Amy. But glad that the ADs are letting you deal with it so well. That's a really good thing.

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

Shit, Amy, I'm sorry. I hope something else good turns up soon for him!

ita, I'm boggled by how many meetings you have. I have like one meeting every two weeks and I'm annoyed at how much of my time it takes up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My biggest takeaway is that my ADs are definitely working, because I'm not crying, and I'm not curled up in a ball in the corner. Go me and pharmaceuticals.

Woot! (Although crying is a legit reaction.)

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

This is so freaking weird: [link] I don't understand people who aren't just living their lives, they're playing them.

And thank DOG the meeting I was late for--he bailed first, five minutes after the start time.

As of now, I have about three hours a day booked through Friday. More will be claimed as days pass. It's just...that's how we roll...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

This is so freaking weird: [link] I don't understand people who aren't just living their lives, they're playing them.

Gah! That was very moving.

It was not moving! He just walked away! How is that moving?

eta: Okay, literally, he was moving, as in changing position, but how is it moving as in emotionally affecting, when it's so...affected?

They're ex-lovers that haven't seen each other in forty years!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And they both cried?

And then he got up and walked away. Come back to me with ex-lovers moved enough that they spend more than a minute re-uniting, and then I'll be affected by it.

Speaking of moving, gotta (not) love this dress: [link] The article is saying she's too old for it, but everyone is too something for that. The bows down the front are appalling. What she is too old for is that fake coquettish pose in the last picture.
