The Fat Lady...

My favorite author of all time died.

"But I'll tell you a terrible secret - Are you listening to me? There isn't anyone out there who isn't Seymour's Fat Lady. That includes your Professor Tupper, buddy. And all his goddam cousins by the dozens. There isn't anyone anywhere that isn't Seymour's Fat Lady. Don't you know that? Don't you know that goddam secret yet? And don't you know - listen to me, now - don't you know who that Fat Lady really is?...Ah, buddy. Ah, buddy. It's Christ Himself. Christ Himself, buddy."

-Zooey

p.s. I'm still pregnant. Guess I'm still the Fat Lady, too. We all are.

  1. Sorry you're still "fat." I know it seems like it will never end but it will. For some reason, I haven't been able to answer your message. The link doesn't work. E-mail me at anneb@meridian-technology.com and I'll e-mail you back my personal email. Hang in there (literally, at this point). Love, Anne
