What a fantastic eulogy, for someone who was clearly a fantastic friend! You are so right when you say that we can continue what the friend or relative we have lost gave us even when they are gone.

Anyone can do the right thing once, or every now and then.
It's much harder to do the right thing day after day - to keep giving even when you're tired. Well done, Wolf. Keep an eye on that water glass. You never know.

Wolf, I expect you to be employed very soon. You have done so much above and beyond the call of duty in the name of friendship and love, but in a professional and caring manner, it's impossible that someone who needs a person with your qualities hasn't noticed
..and I don't just mean what you did for crazynurse, which obviously wasn't duty...

So, I spent most of yesterday humping stuff from one place to another, in this case crazynurse's house to a storage facility.
Well, there was this one little side-trip. There was some extra furniture that crazynurse's daughter gave to me. Nice furniture. Well, better than furniture, really. Only thing is, it was kind of disturbing this morning when it woke me up for the physical jerks, but after BB's speech, I feel much better, happier and content.

(I'm not trying to sound as snarky as that does when I read it after initially posting it. I thought the book was required reading in most high school lit classes.) Yes, crazynurse's daughter and son-in-law gave it to me. gothychick and I moved it into my apt yesterday. I can't wall mount it, so they gave me the stand too.

OK I'm totaly familiar with that book, wolf, but I didn't get the reference either. I assumed crazy nurse had some sort of exercise channel programmed as an alarm, and I couldn't work out what the hell Buster had to do with it, just wondered if I'd missed a blossoming cellar relationship.....

Ha, no, 1984 as required reading became cliche, no one I know (that's my same age) was required to read it. I did have to read Lord of the Flies, The Scarlet Letter, Catcher in the Rye, and Grapes of Wrath though, so there was still plenty of cliche to go around.

I believe the reason that 1984 was dropped from the curriculum is that it now counts as current events.
Ba-dum-dum TISH!
