Did anyone here have a good relationship with his or her father (aside from you, Abby)? If the network is indicative of the truth, I would guess no.
Assuming this curse and the snow don't delay the play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is scheduled for today. Some of the actors are very good. I'm not one of them, but Quince's role is small enough that the good acting should far outweigh the bad. I've never seen it staged in the snow. If nothing else, it'll be unique.

I hope you're not cursed today.
Will you tell me if you are, though?

How like my father to not make an appearance. I know it's only a curse, but--
No, maybe it's better that I'm not affected. I want to see him again, but it wouldn't really be him if it was a curse. I doubt the deities would bother transporting our fathers here; it's more like them to conjure up representations than to give us anything real.
Shilo and I talked about hating and loving someone at the same time. It's possible. I think it's easier to love and hate a person simultaneously than to fully love or hate them. My father was probably better than some (or most, from the network) I think, even though he left. If he were here, that's what I would ask him--why he left me. None of it would have happened if he would have taken me with him. ...I might hate him more than I love him. I can say that about almost everyone I knew at home.
I don't know what to do if Shilo's cursed. Letting go is hard when the City refuses to let us forget what we came from.
