Christopher would come home to kill a spider for me--if it got him out of a boring meeting.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[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.

What is even happening?
Plei,
Usually I don't notice those count-down types of giggamahoogies people put on their Live Journals (you know, the "3 months and two days 'til we're married" sorts of things). But this one counts a baby's age, and one of my friends posted it in her journal. I still wouldn't have thought twice about it, except the website that produces it is called Lilypie. [link]

What is even happening?
Well, I'm not entirely certain if Plei's level of phobia is up there with mine, but I know it's pretty close. And since the spider that she saw was probably exactly like the ones we get at our place ... my general reaction to the larger ones is to hyperventilate and come close to fainting.Scott's a good man, and a nice husband, but I think he'd let me twist in the wind, even with the subject of a deep phobia. I hope it was clear that I was only showing appreciation for Pete and Paul, because I think that's just sweet as all get out.
I'm getting better. The other day I was able to go get a glass and trap a (very very) small spider in the bathroom.Wow, Jilli. That's terrific.

'Til we dance away...
Ha! Interview-ma (and hair ma) to Susan. Sometimes hair has a crisis after it's cut, that's my only explanation.
Hopefully things have turned around for me a bit. I got back from the doctor and it looks like my weird skin stuff is not cancer, or anything that could become cancer. In fact, the dermatologist didn't think it was at all sun related. Now I have a prescription to try and fix it and if it's gone in a month or so there's nothing to worry about. So thanks for all the good vibes last weekend!
Doxycycline sucks. I took it twice a day for years, and they were not kidding about taking it with food. If I didn't drink enough water with it, it felt like it burned- that may have just been psychological, though.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
You find a Plutonium Dragon. He is quickly made Ancient and Enraged.
I am a Cleric Elf with a halfling and full body armor as well as a mace. I pput a shrinking spell on the dragon and smash him with my mace.
I win.

Trust my rage
I just read about a mom in NO giving her 2 month old baby to someone on a bus who could get out. I'm crying and sqeezing Ellie tight.

I can't even.
I win.
I was thinking "Throw Sean, our gnome illusionist into the room, then slam the door shut and run like hell."
Me too!
Why am I not in San Diego today instead of here in meetings? Stoopid stoopid continent. (Mmm, blanks.)

Dragons have magic resistence. Where do you wear the halfling?

Stephanie, I just saw that and held Lily extra-tight.
Jilli, it was one of the regular midsized black ones. A really big one, and you'd still be peeling me off the ceiling.
Cindy, I used one of the Lilypie trackers when I was pregnant. Put it on my desktop and clicked to see how close I was to due each day.

Ya know, I really should have listened to Jilli.
Really.

I totally understand the need for assistance on this one. Not sure what I'd do if confronted with one of those suckers. Probably go buy a wet/dry super vac and then not empty it for a year.
