[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.

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

I got very cross with my mother, and told her that in the future, she needed to START stories like that by saying, "Okay, your sister did NOT have a stroke...."

BWAH! It's like how three separate people thought I was either dead or in a coma after my accident. People really need to learn how to tell medical emergency stories with a minimum of trauma.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Sean, that is scary! Also, the good news does need to come at the BEGINNING of the call.

What is even happening?

The eldest of my two beloved (both younger) sisters is expecting 3/4.
Heh. That's my birthday.

Oh, the poor thing with Bell's Palsy. That's one of those mystery conditions, I think. It just happens, I think. I think there are a lot of theories about it, but that's mostly what they are. And yes to your warning to your mom. Spoilers are sometimes very good and necessary.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

My due date is 9/16.

You know the expression "seeing red"? Of course you do, who do I think I'm talking to anyway. Anyway, I find getting hit in the face, especially the nose, causes that to literally happen, along with the overwhelming anger.

YES! I was talking to my dad about this, and he said pretty much the same thing about my BiL, that he really needed to start the story by saying "Your daughter is (eta: AND the BABY is) FINE, however...."

Also, Sean, my sympathies to your sister. Sorry to make it all memememe. Bell's is no fun.

That would make sense - if blood is surging to your face, wouldn't it surge through your eyeballs as well? Or am I talking out of my behind?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I'm primed for having kids, because I now react very calmly to being hit in the face. Hit anywhere, really.

And your hair is already short enough, so you don't have to deal with the ones who like to pull while nursing, ita.

Lilty, I think I responded to your post in Natter, in this thread. I'm too lazy to move it, though.

Oh, not at all. I figured the sympathies went without saying.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yeah but that's because you know you can hit back.
