Happy Birthday, Beth!
Calli, I'll be thinking about your mother. It's pretty obvious, but the American Cancer Society's site [link] is a great resource and they offer local services.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

[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.

Ann, that's a ferret.
((((Calli, Mother, and family))))
If you have questions, I spent several years helping care for Hubs' mother when she was fighting cancer.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Thank you, all. I may have questions for folks once we get a staging. Right now I'm in a "sit in the office crying, while abusing the office internet connection to look up depressing stats and send smoke signals out to my local support folks" situation.
Thank Gaia I have an office with a door that I can shut. Although I really don't care if anyone here sees me looking like red-eyed crap, I don't want to explain why sixteen dozen times.
I chose an excellent day to say "screw it" to mascara though. Small comforts, folks, small comforts.

Always Anti-fascist!
Boatloads of -ma, everyone. Life blows, sometimes, y'all. I was gonna change my tag today, but the one I would pick would've been bad luck, I think. I was considering : "I'm into Homicide. I have no good news for anyone. Ever." But I think Hec and Karl would get on me for downgrading myself, and it's probably bad luck, anyway. So, NSM. My current tag is So Me, anyway...except for the fascinating part.

Phew, that was close.
vw? Practice this sentence: "Aww fuck it, it's just a mug."
Calli, I'm sending saphire beams of pure health towards your Mom.

Eeyore really is the Munchkin of the Hundred Acre Wood, isn't he? Or would be if there were women there besides Kanga. (No, I'm not writing that.) I knew that's what you'd think...well, maybe if somebody didn't owe me a bunch of soulful positivity...nah, just kidding...my player's all 10-7 anyways. Need to replace it before the mix gets here.

Just so we're clear, I certainly don't expect you to be Sister Mary Sunshine. I'm also on record validating cynical snarkiness as an excellent response to your situation. But standing on the lip of a downward spiral and kicking pebbles in to listen to them rattle and clank in the abyss? Not optimal.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

{{vw}} I hope it turns out okay.
{{Calli}} I'm so sorry. May it be easily treated.
Erika! I'm glad you're here. You must read our interview with Teddy Dunn, especially page 3, where he talks about how much he loves working with Kyle Secor.
