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.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

In other news, I am still slightly shaken by an awful dream I had last night where Tom told me he didn't love me, and never did. It went on and on in agonzing detail, but that's the gist of it. i woke up crying. BAH!

I never had one of those - never, nada, not once - until 1976. They now occur four to five times a year. I wake up, quite literally, screaming. It's become a ritual. Nic pats me on the arm, sleepily says "All the men you've loved loved you back, especially me" and waits for me to fall back asleep.

Fucking abandonment dreams. Horrible.

Good morning. I am insanely cranky this morning, but for a damned good reason: forgot to take a flexoril at bedtime and the result is feeling black and bluie and never having got all the way asleep.

I'll be back when I'm more human.

I have a plan.

I just made snack bags for me and Emily for the plane/airports today. They have bananas, two kinds of crackers, two kinds of homemade cookies, skittles and m&ms. Don't you wish you were my roommate?

Have a great flight and a great time, both of you.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

So, Teacup Guy is upgraded to boyfriend? Sweet. I can concentrate my 'shipping on Lilty and Music Store Guy

I think so, at least in my mind. We are seeing each other 2-3 times a week.

Yeah baybee, and we're already at the "when to meet the fam" dilemma. I love smooth, swift ships.

Well, not really. It is more of the fact that he really wants to help me move and my family will be there.

Yes, for more reasons than this.

That may not be reason enough to meet the fam, you know? If you wouldn't have done it yet that could be rushing things.

It is more like it will happen when it happens, and it just so happens that I am moving at the beginning of next month. He really wants to be there for me and I really want him there. I don't think either of us feels like we are on some sort of schedule or working off some sort of relationship checklist. It just is what it is.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Have fun at Oban! Tell them that I like their whisky very very much! Mmmmm, Oban.

I had some of their signature whiskey in a nice dry pub while the world fell apart outside. It was a mostly pointless trip, as it took 3 hours to get there, we only had two hours there, and the daylight ended as soon as we arrived. But the tickets were expensive, £13, so we had to use them. It was okay, but it would have been nicer had we had more time there. And had we gotten to see a castle.

How are ya'll? I'm back in London for the rest of my trip, though I've managed to hit the proverbial walls regarding finances (again). Ah, well. Such is life. Guess I'll just go random places in the city and see what's there.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

No, I think it'll be cool. The move aspect means it's not a Meet the Family thing with all the weight that implies, just here's-this-cool-guy-I'm-seeing-isn't-he-helpful?

That's what I am thinking. This will be much better than sitting down with my family at dinner while they ask a million questions. Everyone will be busy helping me.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

And strong.

Seriously, sj, good for you. Yay!!

waving bye-bye and "have fun" at Emily and vw
