I just found out her ghost left town.

In genuinely good news, I talked to my boss today and got it confirmed my job's going to last at least through the end of summer with an increased number of hours per week through August. It's a load off my mind knowing I've got it through then, plus a lift in my spirits to know it'll be just a little bit more income every week.

So have James Marsters reading "The cat's song" by Marge Piercy - full text here - to celebrate.
