letter to the elderly couple who backed into me in the bigbox lot parking lot today

I sympathize. I really do. It must be horrible to realize that you've gotten to the point where getting behind the wheel is unsafe for you and others. To lose that enormous chunk of your independence, and have to depend on others for such a basic thing as transportation must be awful, especially in most of the U.S. where public transportation is such a poor substitute because of its lack and inconvenience. I dread the day when it happens to me.

But my sympathy stops when it's my safety that's at risk because you're in denial.

Fortunately, you did not do any damage to yourselves, your car, me, or my car. This time. You scared the crap out of all of us, though. And it was really obvious that the reason for this accident was because you're well past the age/infirmity level where you needed to stop driving.

I sure hope you realize that before you really hurt someone, including yourself.

Honestly? Statistically there's gotta be.

Why does that last question have only two choices?

Castle

I love you. I love Castle the character, Castle the show, the plots, every single one of the characters, the characterization, the way the backstories work, the way they make NYC another character, the silliness, but most of all,

I LOVE Castle and Beckett. Gods, if you want lessons in writing chemistry, there they are. Although unless you can hire Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic to play the parts, you're never going to be this good. They are so perfect together...

Megaera the fangirl will shut up now.
