It looks like the sort of Starbucks drink that looks good on paper, but will in fact taste terrible.
The had samples. It was like drinking brownie batter. Far too sweet for me, I fear.
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I can finally breathe again.
I have to run one last mega-important errand right now but I think I am going to do one last post when I get back detailing exactly what everyone helped me get through. If only so I can finally say all of it out loud.
There is just not enough thanks in the world...

My favorite was the one with the glue...they could save themselves some time by saying "I'm sorry. I don't understand." Good lord, dumb people with $.

I'm thinking the problem may be them not knowing when they don't understand.
A good part of my job consists of me saying "I'm sorry. I don't understand." to programmers and getting them to 'splain so I can interpret for our users. I'm going to go do some of that right now.
