Icky stuff

I found the new bench at Reavis dedicated to Jan, the graduate secretary in the English department that I liked so much (though her replacement, Bonnie, is awesome, too). I miss Jan and I think the word I am looking for is "winsome" to describe how I felt at seeing the new bench that was dedicated to her.

On the way home, I got the most horrible news that a good friend lost his "best friend", Lois. It breaks my heart to know that Lia will, someday, not be with me any more.

That sucks.
