Boo for tough situations, askye, brenda and SA.
Hugs and kisses for everyone!
Eggs. The living legend needs eggs. Or maybe another milk.

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.

Guess what I got in the mail today?
Okay, besides my Best of Bowie music video DVD...
Book contract!
So the trick is that I sign this, and they give me money, and a year later I give them 30,000 words and then they give me some more money. And if they sell? More money still.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
See, mine was more like "tell your girlfriend/fiance to stop being a bitch and leave you the fuck alone.
Ahh. Very important, that.
I said I"d cook spinach lasagna.
Yum! Sounds better than the greasy pizza I had for dinner. O food service, how I loathe thee.
Congrats, David. That's such a wonderful thing.

Yay for raises, book contracts, new jobs and new hair!
Poo on shitty days.
The good of having an up-to-date resume? You can apply for newly posted jobs the same day they are posted.
The bad of having an up-to-date resume? I just applied for a job at a place described to me as a "snake pit" just because it was so damn easy to do so.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Congratulations, David!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Burrell, I posted this in LJ, but you might not have seen it. Did Franny have night terrors? I've gotten some good advice so far, but would like as much as I can get.
(Seeing your child go through these is like unto watching Freddie Krueger take over someone's body in the moves - totally horrifying since there's almost nothing you can do about it.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Go, Hec!!!

Whoot, for the book contract, Hec!
Aimee, that sucks. My daughter had them, but I have no good advice to give as I never found anything that helped except to wait it out. Fortunately, she didn't have them very frequently, but they were very scarey.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Him: Oh no. You were just being beautiful.::sigh::
Nice Fella. Good Fella. He should get a cookie. Or something that rhymes with cookie.

Yay job, Aimee! Yay raise, Gud!
And selfishly? Yay Lush cause I bought a Black Pearl bomb for tonight. Stopped to look at an apartment that had balloons and streamers and signs about leasing, like the sleeziest girl at the bar that really anyone can take home. The manager was standing inside the gate. Being a rude bastard. Guess where I won't be living... But it was two blocks from Lush and so I went there and bought me a comfort soak.

Yay for shiny book contract!
