Thanks, sj.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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

What is the count up to, Trudy?

~ma to your sister, t.
sj, we just hit three mentions, one allusion, and one mention that was NOT gratuitous (she was telling the story of John giving them the lyrics for Creeque Alley) -- out of about six or seven times she's been shown. Seriously, can she think of NOTHING else?

Now Michelle is at the pledge table with Midge Woolsey and the other guy. This will have to be a seperate count.
(Sadly enough, this is a RERUN PLEDGE DRIVE and I've SEEN it before. Oy. But nothing else on appeals to me at the moment.)

So pathetic.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Dammit.
Shit.
One of our cars is dead. The other has had its check engine light on for a few days--we just hadn't gotten around to doing anything about it yet.
The dead car is the newer one, "my" car because Annabel's carseat fits better in it. But when I tried to start it this evening after a meeting at my church, nothing. Nada. DH came from work and tried to jump it; no go. So we swapped the carseat into the old car, and Dylan stayed with the dead car to call a tow truck and such.
I just want something good to happen to us for a change. I'd settle for something awfully small. But something where it doesn't feel like my life is falling apart all around me.
And I made a decision driving home. As soon as we're back from Alabama (we'll be there 6/12-18), I'm looking for a job. It's the only responsible thing to do. As is, we're about to add to our credit card debt to get both our cars fixed. The best we can do is tread water, and we're never going to get ahead until I'm bringing in more money. I jumped too soon into freelancing, and I'm inclined to think it was doomed from the start because my heart is really in my novels. Freelancing doesn't work as a day job.
But I just want some little thing to go right. I want to be happy, just a little bit, in the midst of broken cars and financial stress and thrown-out backs and dads who probably won't live much longer.

On the "Cass Shuffle": They're talking about how everyone else moved from the waist up and Cass was always dancing. "She made us look bad, we'd maybe tap a toe and she'd be dancing away. For a very big girl she had a great sense of rhythm."
Sighhhh
She danced rings around all of you. Be sure to mention she was heavy.

If I only had a brain...
I'm sorry, Susan. I hope better times come soon.
