Northwestern had a fair number of porn scholars in its film department when I was there. One of my film profs had several articles on lesbian porn published in the New Yorker, and I think she may have written a book, and one of my TA's did his thesis on Asian women in American porn, entitled "Men, Women, and Their Big (Chop)Sticks."
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

[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.
My coworker/assistant sent out a document with the heading "Venereal Information." (Should have been "general".)
It's times like these, I miss working outside the home.

What is even happening?
An old family friend just died not quite two hours ago. I mentioned him here, soon after he got his diagnosis. His treatment didn't work for very long. He's been so weak for months. I am glad his struggle is over, have even prayed for that, so I don't know why it's hitting me so hard.

A loss like that is always hard, and just because he's got the peace you prayed for doesn't mean you won't mourn him.

Even when it's expected, it's wrenching.
Or, to quote Tara "It's always sudden."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, Cindy. I'm so sorry.
It really is always sudden.
I remember when my great grandmoth died - she was 98, she'd had Alzheimer's for several years and had been bedridden for quite sometime. It can't have been anything but a blessed release for her, and we had lost her longbefore. Still, it was a sad sad time.
