Yeah, Cash, thanks, but once people know me, it probably would play hell with my plausible deniability if the Empress did kill her and I tried to go all Fox-News-Plays-Terrorist-Bombmaking videos and say I had no idea to what use the knowledge would be applied.(That was a really great ep of Homicide...a friend of Felton's dad is dying, and despite being Wilford Brimley, does not have the guts to buy his own farm, so his son does. And Beau browbeats Meldrick into not saying anything, which is of course not the last time Lewis breaks the rules,(ooh, foreshadowing. Score!) and they go and wash the assisted off the suicide down the drain.)
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

[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 look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm driving half the people to the actual thing.
You don't have to. They have cars.
Yes, this.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hey, if I took 4 Ibuprofen at 7am, when can I safely take more?
Sincerely,

11 a.m. at the earliest, as long as you don't make a habit of it (i.e., once a month is okay, and oh, do I feel your pain).

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I love erika.
I apologize for the continued bitching, I'm sure you are all sick of it, but Joe just made a point on the phone and, damned if I don't think he might be right.
This whole thing of people with money vs me is tapping into old old old unresolved feelings of mine from high school. The rich, beautiful girls all sitting around the pool making fun of me. I don't think that will truly happen, but thinking about it brings back memories of the day after Junior Prom and I seriously feel like I'm going to have a panic attack. I hate being the "poor realtion". I hate not being financially able to do what the people around me can do financially and I hate feeling like a loser in my Old Navy bathing suit for Plus Sizes while the other girls around me are in their designer bikinis, tans shining, flat tummies being flat. I've earned my tummy, I have a beautiful wonderful daughter to show for it. I have a wonderful, loving husband that adores me and would do anything for me and yet, I feel like becuase I'm not a size 4 and I don't have $$ falling out of my Dooney & Burke tote, that I'm not worthy and not good enough and basically a piece of shit. Not true, I know in my mind, but it FEELS true.

I killed it, I'm sorry. I'll go be sulky elsewhere. ;)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Hit me, Cass!Excellent. I shall put the email together tonight. It's like a personality test, but more disturbing.
you think he wants to test his musical expertise with that "Hit me," thing. Really. Nsm.Oh. So you're saying I should send a playlist and a safe word.
"I'm sorry, I can't come in today, my cat is being affectionate. I don't know when I'll be able to leave."I think it should count as Personal Time.
Crampy McPainYou can take more now. They are a 4-6 hour drug. I'm feeling your pain too.
Aimee, don't go anywhere else. Seriously. Stay here and whine to your heart's content because you are totally not the one in the wrong here.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I have a beautiful wonderful daughter to show for it. I have a wonderful, loving husband that adores me and would do anything for me
And how many in the wedding party can say that?
Indeed, how many in the wedding party can turn to people in time zones all over the world for positive reinforcement?

Not a lot, and for that, I am so incredibly grateful and I know how lucky I am in those respects.

Aimee, it's good that you recognize that this old issue could be feeding the current one, BUT -- and while I only know you and not the other people involved, I still think I'm right -- BUT the MoH is being a thoughtless, rude cow.
Even if some of your current feelings are being fueld by old feelings, that doesn't mean your reaction is wrong, because I don't think it is.
And by "reaction," I don't mean "feeling like the poor relation" -- because you ain't, and I think you know that in your brain, if not in your gut -- by "reaction," I mean "thinking that MoH is being a thoughtless rude cow by expecting everyone else to drop the kind of cash she's willing to, or, if need be, go further into debt just to play along with her Perfect Bridal Shower Fantasy."
