(And Anne, if you want another set of eyes on your resume, feel free to send it to me.)
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

[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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
You make it sound like you haven't been meditating/praying and making pro-con lists for the past year. If I read you correctly, this "aha" moment is just the culmination of a lot of soul searching since Annabel was born.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Susan, that's what epiphanies are for.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
They should involve pro/con lists, deep thought, prayer and meditation if one is so inclined, and generally take days or weeks to accomplish.
You probably did all that, just below thw surface. IT's hard to follow a concious decision-making protocol when you don't actually know what the problem is, after all. When the solution clicks into place at the same time you figure out the problem, you must have been working on it somehow.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Bah. Work now.
And Sparky! I just emailed you at your office, completely not thinking! If you get this, drop me an email or something and let me know what time you'd like to meet on Friday! Happy vacation!!

Bypass surgery for my FiL, Ms. Havisham's dad, was a success! He has gotten his knitting back and already working on his next project in the hospital. Ms H and I will probably fly back and forth on and off for the next month to Maine to help with his transition, but thanks for all the 'ma and I release most of back into the wild...

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Well, except that it feels like Major Life Choices shouldn't be "ahas!" They should involve pro/con lists, deep thought, prayer and meditation if one is so inclined, and generally take days or weeks to accomplish.
Heh. Oops. All my major life choices have been aha!'s.
The only reason we made pro and con lists for the house buying is because that's Tom's thing.

Mostly lurking...
I think I've had too much coffee today. Some days it just hits me strange, and I get hyper...or kind of beyond hyper. It's causing my brain to go into hyperdrive, and my thoughts are all over the place. I'm shaking and almost in tears, because I feel inadequate to be doing my job, which is completely ridiculous. But, it just doesn't feel ridiculous. Ugh.

Dude, I know that place well. I'm sorry. Hope you can get a chance to breathe and relax out of the cycle.
