Flutterby™! : Laura Filsinger

Goodbye, Laura Filsinger. Yesterday evening Charlene and I took Alec out shopping to fit his mom's idea of appropriate funeral attire (On walking out of the fitting room and looking in the mirror: "I aged 60 years in 5 minutes"); if anyone out there has any say in arrangement for memorials to me, I want it on the record right now that such arrangements should revolve around a keg or two in a casual setting, if anyone feels the need to change it should involve tie-dye, and that if my remains are retrieved they're to be given to med students for use in practical jokes.

Up shortly after 4 this morning to drive the the boys to the airport. May everyone involved get through the trials of the next week without too much strife.
