Katie Doyle, Girl About Town

Wednesday, Apr. 01, 2015 - 2:08 a.m.

Um...oops. I killed a website I owned last night, completely forgetting that my images for this diary were on it. Boy, is my face red... I'll get the images back up so that you can actually navigate, but it has to wait until after taxes, because I'm completely slammed. Remember that St. Katie thing? Yeah, that got worse. Bygones.

Also, if you are here reading from the old days, I would like to let you know that L'Empress has passed away. Her death was--

I don't know how to describe it. What do you call dying from lymphoma 6 weeks after you're diagnosed with it? Her death was unfuckingfair, that's what it was. She wasn't even 80. She barely met 3/4 of a century. She was a nice freaking person, kind and wise and gentle, and she made everyone's life better who ever knew her. I wish I had realized how sick she was and that the card I sent when I first found out last week was the only card I was going to get the chance to send. Cancer is a fucking c*nt, and I have nothing else to say about it right now.

Harriet's family is sitting shiva April 2-9 and the funeral is April 2. In lieu of flowers, her family would like it if you made a donation to cancer.org.
