Thanks, Toddson!
BTW - we miss you!!!
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

[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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
And I miss you! I keep seeing little girls in pink thinking how cute Emeline is!

I subscribe to a Yahoo news alert for "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." This [link] showed up today. Look at what the girl in the second family wants for Christmas.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I didn't feel it, but my co-worker did (we're in Berkeley). In my defense, I was on the phone with a customer plus we have a bump in the road near hear that makes the 18-wheelers, delivery vans and trucks make a hellish bump and racket when they pass over it...so I may have screened out a penny-ante earthquake.

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

Compassionately intolerant
After I fled to the other coast, it took me two years to quit jumping every time a truck rolled by in DC. That last big one I was in? Made an impression. Which still seems weird to me after growing up in the East Bay amid literally uncountable tremors.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Everyone here is all OMGEARTHSHAKEYWTF when I tell them I'm moving to SF. I try to tell them that I'd much rather have the earth move than a giant funnel cloud chasing me, but the Midwestern fear of the ground shaking is quite ingrained.

Our wings are not tired.
I've never felt the earth move beneath my feet, on account of earthquake anyway.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Timelies. I hope today is going better than yesterday for everyone. Aimee' your friends are in my thoughts. I'm so sorry for their loss.
Suzi, I hope CJ learns his lesson this time and it's a long time before you have to be the mean mom again.
Hugs and hairpats to everyone dealing with retail hell, work tribulations and family woes.
Today's Kara exchange:
Kara: Do you 'member when I was 'dopted?
Me: You weren't adopted! I had you for my very own.
Kara: And that's why you're going to 'dopt another baby when I die!
Me: You're not going to die!
Kara: That's right! I'm going to live forever and ever!
Me: Well, for a very, very long time; until you're very old.
Kara: Oh. Okay.

That's the way I feel about it. I'm a native Californian. Big earthquakes are pretty rare. Big tornadoes happen with regularity every damned season. When I went to Swedish language camp in MN and saw the sky turn GREEN, I had childhood Wizard of Oz horror flashbacks.
I guess it's what you're used to.
