Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!
[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.

I allowed myself a lazy ass morning and just wandered into the office about 30 minutes ago. And I'm leaving within the next 30.
Dinner with Buffistas last night rocked like a rocking thing that rocks. Kinda wish it hadn't been a school/work night as I wanted to stay and play until late, late, late.
Only half an hour left to go and yet they make me go STABBY STABBY STABBY.
Almost over! I had two different bosses give me things at 3pm that had to be done before CoB today. Does that seem right to you? On a fucking Friday?!
sj, I'm seeing you in a new and different job with people who are not assholes. It's a better picture. That last job sucked.

It was fun! Even when I made K-Bug cry. (Though to point fingers o'blame, I think it was less my comment than the fact that C and Suzi both jumped up and high-fived me. I apologized most sincerely to K-Bug on our way out, and she graciously forgave me.)
Deena, some of what you're describing of Aidan's delays makes me think of the way Chris learned things (the no-progress-no-progress-no-progress then huge leaps and bounds to proficiency, although not in the same things) -- who is turning out to be a fluffy bunny evil genius who would be genuinely upset if he saw the word "evil" here.
In your opinion, was Kara advanced? I know Julia seemed to know everything from birth, so the divide between her and Chris seemed that much wider. I didn't feel like I had a good yardstick to measure him by.
Oh. What Betsy said. He hid stuff until he'd mastered it, I think. In fact sometimes, I think he didn't try stuff until he'd mentally mastered it. If that's Aidan's personality, then his low vision might be stretching out his learning process a little, too.
I'll second all the He's so Blessed to Have You sentiments. In Pooh case, apparently.
Cass, thank you. Your dreams still haven't gone away? Ugh.

Not only What Cindy Said, but how she capitalized it.

They haven't gone away but they are getting less and less upsetting. At least in a trend way, some nights are kinda rough individually. They are all very vivid and, instead of something quite fanciful, they have a realness to them that makes them harder to shake.
Sharks with frickin' lasers on their heads? I can wake up, chalk it up as a dream and go on with stumbling toward coffee. People (okay, exes) hurting me, and me hurting them, in the exact ways we did and with extra malice on top? Well it's a lot harder for me to just get over it.
Last night combined the two. Well the fanciful and the real, not the laser beamed-sharks so much. It made me think for a little while after I woke up but it didn't make me shake and cry. So I'm getting better.
ICompletelyON, my desktop computer that I thought had committed suicide by motherboard failure just before I drowned my iPod? Just turned on. I hit the power to get the beeps so I could troubleshoot and also tear out my harddrives and the damn thing turned on. Given that it has my complete music library? Rock on! I am leaving it on until my new refurbished iPod gets here and I will have my precioussssssss music again.

Good. I had a rotten dream Wednesday night, but I was so glad when I finally realized it was a dream (I'd dreamt I'd done something awful), I forgot to cry.

Yes!
I just Snopsed my mother's friend. Actually, I consider her a friend too, but I can't take the e-mail forwards, any more. I've snopsed her in the past, to no avail, so it was probably for nothing.

Oh yeah... It was waking up and having to take forever to disentangle what was a dream and what had really happened that makes it worse to me. Because there is no letting it go, you just dissect it and keep going over things.
I miss my bizarre and easily recognized as dreams dreams.

I feel for you. It really isn't a pleasant way to start the day.
Emeline has a new trick.
She plays her piano with her BUTT.

Bwah!
So does she play it well?
Depends on when her last diaper change was.
