Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

Oh no, glioblastoma is a bad one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh god, that's terrible, Kate.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Kate, that's awful. I'm sorry.

What are some good things to send in a care package to someone who is going through chemo and radiation?

Food is not necessarily a good thing, because treatment changes the way things taste. Soft things, a hat or scarf for when she loses her hair, easily transported distractions for when she's sitting in the treatment room.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, no, Kate, that's horrible. I'm so sorry, for her and for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm so sorry, Kate.

CATNIP is on the toxic list. Come on now.

For real? Huh. Danger of overdose, I guess?

Maybe I should actually read the list. I mostly plant stuff that is edible for humans and figure the cats will be okay, to. Also, mine are not big plant eaters, although Pixie does like her catnip.

PetSmart sells catnip potted in little plastic planters. My cats ignore it, despite that they like the dried concentrated stuff. I dunno, it makes me think this is a list of everything that could possibly be poisonous if a plant-loving cat ate enough, as opposed to, likely under normal circumstances.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

The dog versions that you see especially at holidays are like that. Little to no distinction between actually poisonous, 3AM emergency vet stuff v. Let them eat too much and you'll be cleaning up puke foods.
