She's the slayer. She doesn't need sleep like normal babies.
(What sign?)
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

[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?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My parents used to put me to sleep by going for a drive. The vibrations + noise of the engine were apparently very soothing to me.
Or there may be an imminent zombie attack she's just not verbal enough to tell you about yet.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I have a new tenant named "Pyria".
Pardon me as I fall apart laughing.

I think she made her first sign today.
w00t!
Why oh why is it that a baby who can defeat zombies cannot seem to take a nap?
Poor thing! Probably thinks she needs to stay up and protect you. Little does she know that without a nap, she is in danger of becoming something of a zombie herself (against which you need some protection).

Five too early for a drink?
I say the sun is always over the yardarm somewhere.
Nora, what I use to get through those hellish conclusions is to begin a sentence "Thus it can be seen that ...." That somehow gets me into the summary mode, even if I later write out the pretentious phrase. It is possible that this is only helpful to me.
I hope the surgery is uneventful and successful, Jilli. I've been under general anesthesia twice in the last few years and I had zero trouble with the anesthesia part. I did discover that it helps to tell the anesthesiologist every odd reaction to drugs you've ever had. Also, after my last surgery, which was pretty long, I would have tortured a puppy for a bottle of water on the way home. My mouth has never been so dry.

If I only had a brain...
My parents used to put me to sleep by going for a drive. The vibrations + noise of the engine were apparently very soothing to me.
That worked on my firstborn, too. Put 'er in the baby bucket, drive around the block, and she was out.
Then you had the fun task of getting the baby bucket back into the house without waking her.
Sympathies, Plei. I think all of us have been there.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Yeah, car thing worked with/for me too. Getting the seats out with the boogers still asleep is the biggest trick.

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
Is the vaccuum cleaner thing like the car thing? Sound and vibration? Maybe you could try that and skip the transferring of the sprog?

Woe to the fucking wicked.
