My mom was back home and doing ok with rehab after a fall this summer when she started sleeping a lot and talking to my dead cousin. A nurse came and said she suspected an infection. So we called an ambulance and sirened to the hospital. Alas, she had an infection, but also at least two strokes. 😭

The only seemingly good thing about Bobby Jr. is that he made Nuzzi disappear but as usual we'll just end up with a more resilient strain.

I was doing a spelling test in (I think) 3rd grade and it was words with “-ack” sounds and there was 10 words and after I spelled them all correctly I wrote in “Shaq” as #11 and the teacher TOOK A POINT OFF.

What meaningless thing/experience are you still mad about? Like it should not matter at all, DOES not matter at all. But you’re still MAD.

And how long has it been?

I bought some bagels at Hy-Vee four years ago. So bad. Too big. Hard. Bland. WORTHLESS.

I’m still FURIOUS.

I mean, if you’re going to be a guy who invents a “coat parachute,” and you’re going to test it by jumping off the Eiffel Tower, I kind of feel like you probably jump at peace with the possibility that this is your last test.

This is quite a list of sad happenings, but you also get the sense that some of these (mostly) dudes went in exactly the way they would have wanted to: testing something everybody said wouldn’t work.

When the Television Critics Association gave its Lifetime Achievement Award to David Letterman, he did not come to the ceremony, but he sent a video message. It said, in part, “I’m sorry I couldn’t be there, but this is the day I eat glass.”

Just thinking about that.

Her fiancé at the time, who “found” her, is the nephew of one of PA’s most powerful lawyers who is also a former Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of PA.

The uncle entered the apartment the day after her death & removed all the electronic devices (laptops, phones) belonging to them.
