[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.

Now tagless for your comfort.
sj, it's probably tough for your mom, too. Just try to remember she does it because she loves you. Stand your ground firmly but lovingly. And remind her that you have to be free to make your own mistakes and live with them as an adult. Maybe you haven't been perfectly responsible but heavens knows not every adult is perfect. It's the learning from the mistakes that helps us BE adults.
Cindy, I've covered my eyes and am singing "lalalalalala" at the thought of giving eye drops.

With Leif, I rolled him up in a towel and then put the eye-drops in. All wrapped up like a burrito, he couldn't put up his usual fight.
This works well with cats, too.

Getting rolled up in a towel is just good fun until someone tries to put drops in your eye.

Oops. I wasn't supposed to wake Emily.

I know she loves me, but I cannot stand my ground with her at all. If I get angry or upset with her it is because I am depressed or PMSy and "are you still taking your ADs" is the response I get. She won't even consider that there may be something wrong on her end. I don't know what to do. I am going to go take a hot bath now and see if I can stop being pathetic whiny girl before I go see Teacup Guy tonight.

Hopefully she isn't like my Psycho!Girlfriend in college and physically assaults people when awaken.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Lily is amazing in her tiny perfection.

Not being taken seriously really sucks, sj. I wish I had good advice for remedying that. But a hot bath sounds like an excellent stopgap measure.

Where are these Lily pics? I keep missing them.
