I talk about grief and how it isn't something anyone gets to control for me or anyone else, being on the brink of the six month marker of Mom being gone, an update on reading Midnight Sun. I also ramble about what I used to do with my time before social media, D&D being a life raft. I also read a small thing I wrote concerning my grief: a creative writing exercise based on listening to some grief-related writings at the virtual readings I attend on Fridays. Clayton Spencer's essays about his father finally inspired me enough to give creatively writing about Mom a try. Clayton Spencer's Twitter is @baldgif - NOT @ClaytonSpencer like I assume in the episode!

Actually, just assume this is a blanket trigger warning for the whole podcast and a blanket explicit warning as well.
