[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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I miss my Bats Likes Carrots tag from the heady days of obsessive obsession. For men. In capes. And masks.
I also miss NATLBSB. Even if COMM is shorter.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
t downer
So, my sister and I leve tonight. My mom is camped out at my grandparent's house until....just until.
My grandmother informed my sister that the attic is all set up for us.
I don't want to spend the next 5 days watching my grandfather die 24 hrs a day. I don't want to remember him like that. I want to spend lots of time there, yes, but God, if he dies while I'm in that house, it will taint all my memories of it. How do I tell her this?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
ha! I'm not worried at all. I was being kind of flippant actually. I am in social science. I'm lucky to pick out the similes from the metaphors.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
At certain times of day (i.e., when you need to) just bundle Em up and announce "I'm taking Emeline out for a little while; we'll be back at 4," (or, alternatively, "can you watch her for an hour or so") or somesuch. Just make sure to carve out a few hours away here and there where you need to. For me, the easiest way to do that has been to not make any big statement or announcement, and not so much ask permission. Just let people know what you're doing - stay a bit flexible in case you pick a bad moment, but don't try to make it a big discussion of can/can't, should/shouldn't.
And huge hugs to you. I'm really glad for you that you'll get this time with him, but I'm so sorry it has to be this way.

If I only had a brain...
Brenda is brilliant.
If somebody argues, say "She needs to stretch her legs", which is true.
