Dead Like Me: Life After Death Page #7

And yesterday I met her.

Really?

Yeah.

Except her name was Millie,

and she's a grim reaper

who works at Happy Time

and who takes people's souls

before they die.

So, this is about the boy.

Look, I have a picture.

- That isn't George.

- That's because it's Millie.

You'd like her.

She's nicer than George.

- Stop it.

- I'm not crazy!

God, I can't stay here any longer.

Do you think I'm a fan of cemeteries?

You say in your book that the

hardest part of grieving is letting go.

This town is death for the both of us.

I think you're having a nervous breakdown.

Can I have it in California?

What?

I'm sorry I grabbed you.

It's okay.

Maybe we should take a vacation.

A road trip.

- As long as we share the driving.

- Okay, now I know you're crazy.

Why did you guys tell me Cameron

wanted chocolate and graham crackers?

Because he already

had marshmallows.

- What did I miss?

- Cameron's farewell party.

Oh, Mason, be a dear and

throw another leg on the fire.

He's finished now.

He's gotta be.

We can't do anything else.

Oh, yes, we can.

Who would have

thought such a small creature

could fill something this size?

Well, Murray had a big heart.

And Cameron was a big ass.

Silver-plated? Oh, Millie.

This must have set you

back a pretty penny.

A whole unemployment check.

I'm so sorry about all of that.

No apologies necessary.

It was my fault.

- Poor judgment.

- You're only human.

- You think?

- As is Amy.

Legal got back to me

about her lawsuit.

Turns out she's pulled this stunt

in the workplace before,

litigious little weasel.

- So I'm back?

- If you can forgive me.

- Corner office.

- Done.

This is Murray Herbig.

"My dear, sweet Murray,

"though you've slipped

through death's slim door,

"I declare you were not just a cat.

" You were so much more.

" You were my companion.

"My pal. My friend.

" You were there with me,

"loving me, until the end.

"Dear one, always patient, never mean.

" You were the best

little kitty we'd ever seen.

"Eyes of amber,

"silver whiskers, oh, so tickly.

" That rough little tongue

"and the way you licked me.

" Time is fleeting.

"A life passes so quickly.

"Comforting me in my dark hours,

"you always reminded me,

'Stop to smell the flowers. '

"When we meet across

that great divide,

"we'll run and play,

"and we'll abide in cool pastures.

" Your loud purr will welcome me

"where we'll laugh

"and cuddle

"and forever be free."

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

So, who's in charge now?

Have to wait to hear

from upper management.

What should we do?

I'm thinking waffles.

Hey, did you pack your pillow?

I guess the clock

in my heart is still ticking.

I mean, I'm still here.

I must be clinging to something.

I just wish I knew what it was.
