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 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.  

[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.

Because books.

Totally forgot to squeeee! about the Aimee and MM's new computer -- so glad we got to see pictures!

And Daniel, yes, no more falling down the stairs. Are you sore this morning?

The wide universe is the ocean I travel, and the earth is my blue boat home

OK, I just gave in and called Potential Boss. She didn't answer either, so I left her a simple voicemail asking that she call me. And now I'm going to eat breakfast.

being home would not be restful, so here I am.

You want the key to my apartment while we're gone? You could just disappear for a few days...

Aimee and MM, I forgot to squee, too: SQUEEEEEEE!

vw, I hope that the medication is not a problem, and it's just the getting used to it before it works wonderfully. (and I loved my course of Prednisone when I had it -- I sent out 20+ resumes that week, and my apt had never been cleaner)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Sparky - when I'm on prednosone, it is like PMS x 100...super-bitch.

Things are starting to move regarding my being C's legal guardian. We got the paperwork to fill out, then we have a home-visit appointment from her lawyer.

Mostly lurking...

I've been on prednisone for almost two weeks now. I wish it was motivating me! Maybe that's why I've been so bitchy, though. They may lengthen the course today. Yippy!

The asthma hasn't gotten worse...it's just not better.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Prednisone turned me into a raving psycho bitch who was hungry all the time (er...moreso). But on the plus side, I was able to use my hands again, so I forgave it.

Juliana, I've already said this, but any kind of support at all, ask and it's yours.

This was me for about 2 years. Plus I gained a TON of weight. And yet, I could breath.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Juliana, so very sorry. I can't imagine a more welcoming and inspiring place for you to be than San Francisco, and I hope this will be a true rebirth for you. If it's any comfort at this time, my divorce ended up being that way for me, and despite the pain I thought would kill me at the time, I am grateful for the chance it gave me to grow into the person I needed to be.

Huh. Well, I only had a short course to get me over a sinus infection that wouldn't go away, and I felt fabulous on the stuff. Years later, I still wish I had some certain weeks when I'm feeling overwhelmed by the piles on my desk.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And? Rocking boyfriend that rocks a lot.
