[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.

If I only had a brain...

I had an eye appointment and discovered that my distance vision had just gotten dramatically worse in the space of a month, for no apparent reason. ( I think my doctor was expecting a cataract. Nope.)

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

That's weird, Betsy.

Are your palms fuzzy? No? I got nothin' then.

Do you have another appointment?

Urk. That doesn't sound reassuring, and really, "no cataracts" ought to.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yeah, that would be disconcerting, Betsy. I hope they find a simple, non-progressive reason.

I have a new appointment next week. I am probably going to go see an opthalmogist or my GP just to rule out other medical causes.

Sorry about the news Betsy. I hope it's something that's not scary.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Ugh, Betsy. I hope it's nothing major.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh, Betsy. Much eye~ma to you.

If I only had a brain...

I'm not actually worried at the moment; mostly I am annoyed.

I AM SICK OF STUFF BREAKING! SICK! DO YOU HEAR ME, FATES?!?!?!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Aimee, I'm so sorry. Wishing peace for you and your family.
