I think nice treats and pick-me-ups now are a great idea. At this point, she and her family don't really have any idea what needs are most pressing for the long term, so I'd suggest we hold off for the time being on planning.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Could someone e-mail me about where to send something for -t when it is known? I skip and skim a lot

Herding cats for fun
We're doing a Package for -t? I'm in. I gots a Borders gift card burning a hole in my pocket. Surely having access to books they don't have to pay for will be a cheerful thing.

just had lunch with vw (and you didn't) and she has an interview for the cool job at school at 3pm EST. So if the potent Buffista job~ma could start flowing in about an hour or so...

This is me, but I'll send a note to Perkins. Thanks Trudy for your efforts in this.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Last night went better than I could have hoped for. Teacup Guy's brother and sil are just the sweetest people. I wish they weren't moving in a few weeks. We might go up to thier place this week to help them pack and so I can meet the kids before they move. It was a great night, good food, good conversation, and lots of laughs.
The Food Network is making me want a pannini maker.
In somewhat happier news, today is exactly ONE month before I marry the only man in the world who could possibly love me enough to think my neuroses are cute.
Awww. This is so sweet. The dress is so gorgeous too! Best of luck getting all those last minute details done.
BWAH! My bridesmaids will not be able to AVOID the food. Hello? Big fat Italian family here? Heh.
Now that is my idea of a wedding.

Aidan's teacher is very nice and she was amazed at how smart he is. Of course, all my babies are smart.
Of course. This goes without saying.
Job~ma to vw.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Argh. Coworker is just pushing every button of mine today. Including the Big Red One that makes me snarl in not nice ways.
She started here just before I did but once I was contracted and then hired, I am technically titled and positioned higher than her.
But she just wants to try and tell me what I have to do and find out exactly what I am doing to report to my boss. Which on good days, I can wave off. Today, it bugs.
I also need my client to call me back with his decision on whether he wants foil on his business cards or just two colors of ink. I need to finish the files TODAY if he wants foil. I am snarling at the clock too.
And fun of fun, we are taking the whole company to lunch today in about twenty minutes. I would rather stay here, hear from my client and get my work done so I can leave early and start my weekend of slothful healing for my back.
