OMG, Crush, Kill.
The dinner date that I dragged my ass into work to go to?
Looks like she is cancelling on me.
You know, I just can't take everyone's FUCKING DRAMA! Well, today. I can't take it today. I have no sleep!
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

[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?
Dear Other People's Drama,
Step off of the Nora. She is tired, and you all suck.
Love,
The Buffistas.
On the plus side Nora, you get to go home to Tom.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I would like to say that the red menace struck me yesterday and I woke up this morning with the (now monthly) Worst Cramps Ever (like puking from the pain bad).
I take back my complaining about my own cramps. Robin, I wish I could send you some codeine or something else that would ameliorate your pain.

eh- she changed her mind. I'll bet she'll change it again.
Drama drama drama drama.
I wish I weren't so tired- hanging out with her tonight is going to require a lot of energy.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Just had a very interesting class where I ended up sharing about my depression, diary cards and other treatment. Didn't see that coming out of my mouth today.You are a very brave bug that could.
Ouch, Aimee! Is the thumb okay?
Reading about the Nazi Death Cramps, I suddenly am fearing Tuesday (well, I expect Tuesday)
She's very worried, possibly completely unwilling, to get involved with somebody who isn't Jewish.You just need to convert. t /unhelpful But the smoochies and cuddling sound nice.
I have PT next week, three times a week for three weeks. Two hours. Going to make for long days but they are near the office at least.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
~~anti-cramp-ma~~
All of my nails are splitting, and I can't tell if it's because of (a) stress (b) lack of [insert nutrient here] in my diet, or (c) bad reaction to the cheap nail polish I'm wearing. Most likely a combination of all three.
I'm also having a bad lunch week. I haven't been in the mood to eat ANYTHING, so by the time I work up the energy and force myself to go out ('cause not being in the mood to eat != not being hungry, damnit), nothing's serving but fast food places. It's a bad bad cycle.
And Launchcast won't play Cool As Folk without my jumping through hoops to prove I'm not in the UK. (Which makes no sense to me, as it's INTERNET RADIO. Why should it matter where I am?)

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
Soothe~ma to the people that are closer to the earth right now. One of the benefits, for me, of perimenopause is that my cramping is much less than it used to be. Not sure it's true for all women.
On the other hand, the nightly hot flashes have resumed and have been waking me up at 3:30 in the morning every day for the past week. Argh. I'm finding it harder and harder to get up in the morning. And when I get up as late as I did today, I have no time to make a breakfast or lunch to take to work and end up buying them from the deli which costs me money. Damnit.
Yeah, tight toe diamond shoes, unite!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Harvey now reserves 80% of his cute for Daniel. 75% of the remaining cute is directed at me specifically while I am eating, in the hopes that I will share.
Heh.
Considering how much I used to wish for a break from Harvey, I shouldn't be this jealous ;-)

Nora! I'm so sorry I missed wishing you a happy birthday -- but I hope that you had a good one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Jess & erika, I spent an entire workday in a training session with bosses and HR people getting our annual compliance check-off for not making the company liable if we screw up EEO, ADA, FMLA or other work discrimation biz. I mention you two specifically because I inquired about California protections for Wicca/Pagan under protected categories (it is. The only test is whether the religion is a "sincerely held belief." Jen will be happy to know that Atheism is also covered under the religious protection. That is, it can't be a deciding factor in a work decision), and ADA accomodations.
And just for the girls-who-like-boys-in-eyeliner contingent I checked to see if transgender people were covered. And, in fact, they are in California where "Gender Identity" is a protected class. Which means you can't not-hire a guy for showing up in drag, or a drag-king who shows up in a work appropriate suit.
Then we played a game of HR Jeopardy (just like the TV game) and I lead my team to the most point total as we entered Final Jeopardy. Where I lost, but still got a free Starbucks card for my explanation. (Which had to do with "reasonable accomodation.")
