I'm very sorry you felt attacked, Susan. I think Perkins and Hec and co have already said what I'd say, and expressed it better than I would. I do feel for you that you don't have those RL friends you mentioned easily accessible.
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

Spike's Bitches 24: I'm Very Seldom Naughty.
[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.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Morning, Bitches.
conformation - I forgot that When I went on Advair the first time I had 3 or 4 days of rage. ( i don't generally feel rage at the level where I wish to rip strangers heads off their bodies so I can have some quiet) It is an inhaled steroid - and it isn't supposed to do that. Well, I went back on it yay breatheing) - at a much lower dose- and while it wasn't as extreme this time, it does explain my urge to growl over the last few days.

A world of gronk. I'm at the Burbank airport. I feel like I actually live here lately. I already miss my sweetie, my kitties, and my bed.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Hi all. Just back from date with Riddle Girl. Pleasant evening, and enjoyable company, but I doubt there'll be a second date. Still. First post marriage date, it's all good.

And I tried to buy a book yesterday for the flight ( Breakfast with Tiffany ) but it was $25. Um, no. The book looks pretty good. It's non-fiction, written by a gay man raising his 13 year-old-niece. I've read a few good reviews. But I think I'll wait for the paperback. For now, I just have the latest crap about Jessica Simpson, Brad and Angelina, and Tom and Katie. I'm bored just thinking about it. I hope there's a decent movie on the plane (yeah, right).
ETA: Yay billytea!

move out and draw fire
Glad you had a pleasant evening, bt. And kudos for your bravery and all, warming your way back into dating.
I had a year where I felt like I lived at the Burbank Airport too, but I was never going anywhere, just dropping off and picking up. You know, I don't miss flying.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Go, BT! The echidnas honor your return to the dating pool.

What is even happening?
billytea, I'm glad it sounds at least like a non-traumatic re-entry. Good for you!

BT--have you seen our friend Bob Harris's blog? [link]
He is mostly a political blogger, but he has a whole section devoted to Pudu and other cute tiny animals, some from your neck of the woods. He is a five-time Jeopardy champ and lives in sin with a former Buffy writer whose intitals are JE. He's a fab guy and I think you would like his site.

Yay for billytea! Glad it was a nice evening, love.
Re: the wonderful world of dating - spent most of yesterday with Date Guy, pretty much just eating lunch, wandering around and talking over coffee. He's enjoyable company, and we had plenty to talk about, but the better I get to know him the more I know it's not going to go anywhere, romantically.
(He needs to stop telling me things about his co-worker Lou, also, because I already have a bit of a crush on him. Learning that he's a talented artist and a trained opera singer and the voice of The Count in the Arabic translation of Sesame Street? Not helping to squish the inappropriate crush. Yes, I suck.)
Damn shame this isn't easier, this dating malarky.
